Lately I've started just telling people this so they have fair warning how I am. So far no one has stopped hanging out with me for it so maybe that's just the play. It's a whole different story if I'm on the waiting end though. Then I stop answering texts.

I can't imagine they were worth a fuck as software engineers if that was a barrier for them. It's like the main tool of the discipline. I get that engineers don't always need to be working strictly on programming, but this doesn't sound like a great thing to me. Sounds like an awesome way to end up with more slop made by people who have no clue what they're doing. That's not engineering. I have no issue with vibe coders in certain contexts. But they aren't engineers.

Some people live these floating point lives and I guess I just dont get it. I'm quite rigid with times and dont do well with ish. I always just drop to the nearest. 12ish is fucking 1158 lol

that's what I did at 11am. Lol I split the difference. Best my brain could come up with

Fuckem. I'd rid the planet of the bastards if I could

Someone has to or it'll get too chunky

Lol

Buddy yesterday: Come over around 10am. Me today at 9am: What time do you want me to head over? (Because this is an issue with more people that I can comprehend). Buddy: Whenever you want. Maybe around 12ish. I'm fucking autistic. I have to be. This sort of thing is so stressful for me. Forget 10. I can readjust even though I was ready to leave at 9. Whenever you want Maybe 3 hours from now Ish I'm socially retarded. Or maybe other people are. I haven't figured that out yet.

Best show ever made, and some of the best advice ever given lol That's exactly where I land on it.

Confidence is easier to shake when you have something to lose.

Show me your NIPs.

Then who is focusing on the opt in integrations?

It's not all limited to poverty. But yes, drugs and alcohol are a huge portion.

Yeah we're on the same page. The catastrophic predictions around Bitcoin are usually focused on a single point on a chart and completely ignore the upward trend. I honestly feel like it's just engagement farming. He has to know what he's doing. I absolutely dont think he's dumb. Delusional, maybe. But maybe I am.

I don't want to misrepresent Jack Mallers, but from what I recall he did and still found discrepancies. I recommend listening to him directly. But other than that I feel like it's all typical financial bullshit that I chose to avoid and anyone who didn't should blame themselves unless there's some fraudulent misrepresentation

If you mean his specific catastrophizing, then I'd agree. I think he's right on a lot of his philosophy around monetary policy.

Yeah that's a good point. I don't know how nice they really are. I've never driven one. From what I understand they're also heavily subsidized

And if they can get it down to 20k... Dude... You can hardly find decent used vehicles near that range these days. And the ICE ones you do find have a host of potential problems to inherit vs an EV.

If that list is an indicator of what people are likely to buy, it seems that an small EV is very unlikely to succeed. An EV at all is grim enough.

If he was American people would think he's faded

Are you cold?

Ah. I never knew it had those options until now. Interesting

Feds and Fakes.

It's a classic spam indicator for me.

Sometimes hard to believe we're relatives lol

I find this line of thinking to be useless unless you have some explicit proof. Otherwise it makes zero difference to anything. Just extra bullshit in a world already too noisy.

I have my grandfather's metal razor from the early-mid 1900s. Nothing about that thing is safe so I don't use it but it certainly lasted his lifetime and would mine.
