RT @acmurthy: Compelled to pour more ink on this print. AI is massive for software development and, in particular, for seasoned developers….

"some whiteboard architect", I think that phrase was apt.

Netflix "Inside Job", season 2 episode 1.

QOTD: "The 'imperfect vessel' is now a used condom.".

The whole "Werewolf" thing in Georgia made me dig up that Cracked article from 2011 about how the Republicans fear Vampires & Democrats fear Zombies.

The most amazing thing about the whole Twitter drama is that I'm reading all about it on Twitter. And amazingly it's yet to throw 503s up.

If the FTX fiasco was just about capitalization and a bank run, then there would have been less call for regulation or mandated audits of staked assets (or are they liabilities?). Like, LTCM lost billions but Merton & Scholes won a Nobel prize.

So far one interview has made me drill down into perf tuning on ARM, which is something I never thought would be relevant for databases. That year I spent debugging ARM assembly in the 2000s, all that Simputer hacking is finally relevant.

QOTD: "Every Republican who messaged me asked for money. All the Democrats wanted was my vote.".

Maybe I'm not cynical enough. McConnell voted No, despite having a marriage the bill protects if Loving v Virginia is overturned.

CA-22 is still trending R. Valadao voted to impeach Trump. He's the only one of the 10 votes in the House who looks like likely to win.

I realized that some recent events have changed how I feel about being a situation that's not at all in my control. And always will be grateful for the good things that happen outside my control.

Right now, I'm feeling a little left-behind by myself. I'm stuck in the US because my passport is in processing at a consulate, while my family is in India and I'd like to be there too. A twinge of self-pity flickered over my head and was shot down by gratitude.

The cynic in me is smirking about the "legalizing interracial marriage" language in the new senate bill.

RT @nathanwpyle: interview series 5/8

Every book I read results in two or more for recommended reading. It's really fun to just follow the threads until you get bored.
