@hyumankind I struggle with this so much. so much of today’s patterns are objectively more legible and easier to engage with. but they lack this kind of “other-worldliness” which I feel like vanished after ios6.

@iamharaldur must be nice to be able to have this kind of moral high ground, getting to live in a country that’s been subsidized by the literal outcomes of the WWII result you’re framing as a “terrorist attack”. I agree that the bombings of Japan were human tragedies, but it was a choice the.

Insanely impressive. All of the “hardware” founders that are Dunning-Krugering themselves into thinking they can make novel ambient form factors by just slapping GPT and a mic onto a RPi or ESP32 breakout board…. this is what you’re competing with.

@GBBranstetter seinfeld is an exploration of the absurdity of life, which everyone experiences but struggles to articulate (therefore it’s relatable!). friends is about contrived love arcs that are supposed to make us feel something (and their contrived nature makes them cringe).

@buccocapital Easy dunk but the wrong take. Brian seems to be one of the most disciplined “culture” thinkers of all major tech companies. Took a very unpopular view on focusing their workforce way ahead of the curve and now everyone admits (quietly) that he was right. Plus, they’ve been.

@JackieFielder_ @Trevor4SF Rent control is the LAST thing SF needs. SF rent is high because there is a supply shortage. there is a supply shortage because the city won’t permit new development / redevelopment . rent control dis-incentivizes builders even further. so like??? what’s the goal here Jackie????.

@noampomsky i grew up in a family like this. my parents started speaking to me like an adult as early as i could talk. the pros are obvious and abundant, the cons i didn’t recognize fully until later in life. my default behavior is to discuss (not converse) and i struggle to “simply agree”.

@ClemUhhh @iamharaldur By your definition literally all artifacts of war are terrorism. A protracted land war in Japan is terrorism because it results in extensive civilian death. US conflagration of Tokyo, terrorism for the same reasons. If we’re all against war and terrorism, shouldn’t we try to.

Wrong. Hate to be so direct, but absolutely incorrect. Strong opinions are the result, not “the way” to develop taste. Taste develops one way: sensing things, deeply understanding why/what they make you feel, incorporating it into your worldview. Repeat infinitely. This is 101.

@devonzuegel my wife and I actually noted the same thing! any ideas on why it feels like that? is it just that kids are more comfortable in cities in Japan vs. the US and so it “feels” more prevalent?.

@atroyn these kinds of LEDs are just insanely efficient tbh. look at some of the light shows in SZ. similar amounts of LEDs and actually less optimally spaced than they are on the sphere (normal to a plane vs. normal to a sphere) . from what i can estimate it’s about 1-10MW of power.

@chairboy @iamharaldur and the other side of nuance is to let a forever war rage in the Pacific at the hands of a murderous totalitarian empire that raped and pillaged all of coastal East Asia destroying millions of lives over just a few years. you’re analyzing in a vacuum. if you claim to be in favor.

@ClemUhhh @iamharaldur I’m not “we”, nice try using other people’s thoughts as my thoughts tho. Can you refute my point?. the US did the least terrorist thing possible to end the war (which we all agree would have resulted in more terror for the Japanese civilians). given that, is it fair to label it.

@AustinTByrd no there isn’t. - extremely hard engineering problems.- massive scale to support 15% of figma users (would be >1% of the overhead).- you’d only get the low value users, churn would be brutal.- you couldn’t bootstrap “Figma from three years” and no one would fund this approach.
