Between 2012 and 2024, nearly every person I lived with worked in hospitality or culinary.

And yet, every single one of us had to sneak food out of our work places. Getting caught taking the food we made home, rather than letting it get trashed, was one of the fastest ways to get fired.

Uncomfortable truth, but I want to pogo off this post in particular.

The problem with a good-enough AI tool used to replace a junior is that it can't JUST be good enough to do that... because when the senior leaves, *who replaces them?*

The LLM can't. The junior you never hired can't. (1/2)

For gamers who aren't in game dev, you should know that we are in one of the worst periods in game dev history in terms of industry stability and the reason you're not seeing that play out through products is because the average development window of games is 3-7 years so it hasn't reached you yet.

I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

This this this. QA is essential, QA is the backbone, and QA is irreplaceable. They're some of greatest folks I've had the chance to meet and work with, and their humanity is an asset.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

I remember going to a swing night on campus and I think I only truly remember it because the power went out about halfway through and they kept playing because they hadn't been using mics anyway, it was just music.

Utterly fantastic experience. 10/10. Highly recommend.

And this is why they'll never get in my house

That inner child never leaves. They’re just waiting for acknowledgement.

We must absolutely destroy the idea embedded within US ethos that only those who work deserve to have their needs met and an overall comfortable existence. (An idea that is only superficially and contingently believed due to the large number of people who work for horribly low wages)

Frame: this public service costs too much, it isn't making money

Negation: it's actually very efficient and it could make more money

Kirby: they are attacking the very idea of public services

This is an amazing thread, and the template early on is 100% worth saving for regular use.

When he says “hit it, Joe”, I don’t think first time viewers are going to be prepared for just how hard Joe hits it.

This is the reminder that SNAP makes money because ensuring people have enough to eat is a basic economic multiplier

Hey everyone!

I am so sorry to ask for help but I'm in a very dire situation since my mom is in the hospital and I'm stuck with the bill.

I don't expect to hit the $1600 goal but literally ANYTHING helps.

Thank you so very much and I'm so sorry.

Welcome new people. I was asked at dinner last night whether Bluesky was an echo chamber. I said it doesn’t matter, because what I want from social media isn’t to talk to young republicans taking a break from their group chat, but to read things I want to read but that I might have missed.
