Me: Programming is fun

I find myself leaning on static methods to generate the object these days. CreateErrorUser is so much cleaner than doing a new user passing in a property of error, message and error code. It also removes any chance that the person calling it does not understand how to get it in the correct state.

I love the hire. Saves us the buyout $$$. If you enjoy mostly runs up the middle and delay of game penalties for subbing with <15 seconds so the defense gets to slowly sub, you’re gonna love Gus

Thank you for saving us the buyout $$$

@ucffootball.bsky.social can we request our ticket donations go to Gus’ buyout? I want to renew but can’t justify supporting what’s on the field

Bluesky is growing so fast it's racing to get hold of more servers, its COO says Bluesky's explosive growth to 21 million users has pushed the company's 20-person team into "firefighting mode," says COO Rose Wang.

An unnerving problem to have, but a good one.

Write code in the most easy to maintain possible. If there’s an easy performance win, do it but don’t focus on it. Use telemetry to track all critical paths and the performance. Once necessary, optimize performance over maintainability/readability
