do not, my friends, become addicted to cracked engineer culture. that way lies building mountains of cancerous abstractions that amount to nothing, yakshaving for decades until you are forgotten by history. follow instead your natural curiosities and your pursuit of divine glory

Vorbildliches Verhalten, an dem sich andere Mannschaften und Fans ein Beispiel nehmen können. @werderbremen zeigt klare Kante: Der Verein hat erneut auf das Schicksal von Hersh Goldberg-Polin aufmerksam gemacht.
Der 23-Jährige wurde am 7. Oktober beim barbarischen Terrorangriff der Hamas als Geisel genommen und nach 330 Tagen in Geiselhaft grausam ermordet.
Es ist herzzerreißend. Jedes Bild und jede Geschichte. Du wirst niemals vergessen. 🎗️

Google's new NotebookLM generated a "podcast" from a bunch of PDF links on mechanistic interpretability. Is this the beginning of the end of podcasting? Very innovative work from @labsdotgoogle

If you are smart you have a moral duty to be an aggressive asshole
Because idiots are already doing this, without qualms, spreading influence and taking up valuable mindshare
Stop sitting on the sidelines and waiting for someone else to make the situation better
Fight for it
hell yeah 🗡️
i'm convinced some people go into programming to express things (à la art), to discover things (à la science), or to solve things (à la engineering), and these are the roots of philosophical divides between languages, priorities, working relationships, and value judgments

"A Baba Yaga drone came, dropped cookies and a life jacket": unique footage of how the Ukrainian Armed Forces saved a Russian soldier abandoned by his command.
A drone spotted 22-year-old Russian marine Andrey Alimov on an island in Kherson region. He was holding a piece of paper saying: "Can I have something to eat? It's hard." As it turned out, he was given one field ration for three weeks but was abandoned for three months. He ate frogs, reed roots, and drank water from the Dnipro River, hoping to be rescued.
"His faith disappeared when he was shot in the leg, and he was fed with promises of evacuation for another two months. When his leg got really bad, he came out and surrendered to a Ukrainian drone," journalist Yurii Butusov, who posted the video, wrote.

@usgraphics Made up words can be adequate for d/b/a or product lines but are fundamentally meaningless companies, e.g. "Avaya".
Topical word salads are better, e.g. Aerojet Rocketdyne . . . but too many of those muddle an industry.
However, nothing goes harder than founder/place and role:
The secret to doing anything you want is literally just saying to urself "let's see what happens" & being genuinely curious to experience it all unfold
Curiosity = one of most powerful human forces on earth
Allow it to override all other emotion. U will look "insanely confident" 2 outside world, but u r really just super curious
