Computer science professor who works on fast data processing; co-author of the simdjson parser and a weekly blogger about software performance since 2004.
Front-end web developer at Paravel and co-host of the ShopTalk Show podcast; blogs at daverupert.com.
Started watching “I bought an abandoned storage unit” videos and I can’t think of any job I’d enjoy less. The initial score would be a huge dopamine hit, but pricing the junk, hauling the junk, storing the junk, paying to trash the junk, selling the junk, and shipping the junk to people all sounds awful to me. They’re fun videos, but feels like the sad sewers of materialism to me. Related

Consume trash, become trash. Find treasures, become rich. Quoting @matthiasott.com Screw the narrative. Don’t believe the scare. The Web will never die. Love seeing you all sharing and publishing content on here – and on your personal sites and newsletters! 💚✊ Related

RE: https://mstdn.social/@hkrn/117264890798907148 Much needed. When I was coaching my kid's soccer team 15 years ago, one kid had this mother who would go stand behind the other team's goal and shout trash talk. Not my only pathological-parent story… Related

Full-stack developer, creator of Tailwind CSS; writes at adamwathan.me and makes courses and screencasts for web developers.
Fun piece of history — Tailwind was extracted from a hosted checkout product I was working on back in 2017. Sort of poetic to end up at Shopify almost 10 years later! CSS Related

Organizational psychologist and professor at the Wharton School. Author of Give and Take, Originals, Think Again and Hidden Potential, host of the Re:Thinking podcast, and writer of the GRANTED newsletter.
Dear managers: Stop penalizing people for taking short breaks. Data: Although pausing to stretch, chat, or browse boosts performance, many bosses view it as a sign of poor work ethic. Taking a respite doesn't compromise effort. It resets attention and recharges energy. energy Related

Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter and author of The Power of Habit, Smarter Faster Better and Supercommunicators. Writes for The New Yorker.
Why can two people who love each other completely fall apart over something as small as who forgot to take out the trash last week? The real reason has nothing to do with the trash at all. Here's what it actually is: 🧵 Related

Podcast. Cal Newport’s new book is a great distillation of what I’ve come to believe is the right, sustainable, healthy approach to social media, and technology more broadly. Browse less, make the best of it, and live more.

Graphic designer and type designer, who created the original Macintosh icons and typefaces at Apple from 1982 and has since designed interface graphics for NeXT, Microsoft, Facebook and Pinterest.
Their words
usually I think you can be creative in any constraints. You can make some pretty fun art with beach trash while you're walking around. And this you can be creative, but it's good to understand what the constraints are, and then be excited about that as opposed to being upset that you don't have a thousand colors.

Their words
Like picking up trash where you walk, even if the rest of the world is full of litter. You keep doing what you can to make things better.

Founding member of OpenAI and former director of AI at Tesla; creator of nanoGPT and the term "vibe coding".
When I built menugen ~1 year ago, I observed that the hardest part by far was not the code itself, it was the plethora of services you have to assemble like IKEA furniture to make it real, the DevOps: services, payments, auth, database, security, domain names, etc... I am really looking forward to a day where I could simply tell my agent: "build menugen" (referencing the post) and it would just work. The whole thing up to the deployed web page. The agent would have to browse a number of services, read the docs, get all the api keys, make everything work, debug it in dev, and deploy to prod. T… Quoting @patrickc When @karpathy built MenuGen (https://t.co/2OjrUJ3aLS), he said: "Vibe coding menugen was exhilarating and fun escapade as a local demo, but a bit of a painful slog as a deployed, real app. Building a modern app is a bit like assembling IKEA future. There are all these services, docs, API keys, con… Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
