Oh god, and what if you wanted to order burrata at a restaurant ☠️

Taking out a loan is buying money.

Taking investment is buying money.

Offering a discount in exchange for annual payments is buying money.

Sometimes it makes sense to buy money, and sometimes it doesn't.

Awesome! I’ll keep you updated

Always sad when the season for a friendship ends, even when you know it wasn’t the healthiest friendship.

I recall you saying you have a therapist. Perhaps something to dig into with them, even if it’s means deviating from the current “project” 💜

Moving is tough and making friends as an adult in a new place is even tougher. I don't have any advice, so I all I can say is that I've been there and am there with you. 💚

January!

I’m actually going to be doing a Deploy Empathy-related thing in London on Thu 15 Jan, you should come! (Link isn’t out yet)

Secret Hitler: the only situation where it’s acceptable, even encouraged, for parents and children to accuse one another of being Hitler

Prototyping an MCP Server for Geocodio - Geocodio MCP is so hot right now, so I spent a Hack Friday building a server that lets AI assistants enrich location data with Congressional districts, Census demographics, and more. The result? A glimpse into...

interesting!

I'm moreso looking for interactive tools someone can use themselves rather than a guided/sales-driven demo

ohhhhh pretty

Can anyone think of an API-driven SaaS that has a great API demo tool on their marketing site?

Looking for examples that let you play around with the API (beyond docs/docs examples)

Folks with open positions — heads up.

We’re going to be posting a few positions soon, and I genuinely have no idea how we’ll detect this.

The easiest would be to only interview people who have a 1st/2nd/3rd degree connection on LI from an employee, but that raises diversity issues.

Yikes — thanks for sharing this and for your ongoing coverage of the problem.

I wonder what companies can practically do *today* to stop this. You posted a while ago about requiring national/bank log-in for applications, which is a great idea, yet would take time. Any advice for those hiring?

(My sleep still hasn’t recovered from Laracon.)

Life hack:

Have a pile of laundry you need to fold after the kid(s) go to bed?

Just pass out on the couch at 9pm. Boom, no longer on your to-do list for today 💥

Hello folks!

I just finished up a contract Rails role this past month and I'm looking at new contract or PT/FTE Rails development roles.

Happy to work on full stack Rails development but I'm especially on the lookout for teams who need a growth or design-focused engineer on their team.

Art on a wooden display called a Kilopixel - pixel art by Matt Stauffer

I built a ridiculous 1000 pixel display that takes an hour to draw an image and I'm now asking the internet to draw on it (what could go wrong?)

Please submit some 40×25 pixel art at kilopx.com!

Digital Twins: Simulating Humans with Generative AI A digital twin is a genAI-based model of a particular individual that can be used to predict both individual and population-level preferences and behaviors.

"In our evaluations of synthetic users, we haven’t been very impressed with the performance of currently available simulated humans. They tend to fail to capture the messy, nuanced nature of real human behavior." www.nngroup.com/articles/dig...
