I will be enjoying making something and then remember that I'm a hack polluting the world with slop
Just sucks to see that echoed on my feed this morning by someone followed by people I kind of respected

Knowing that people feel this way is a big part of why I feel intense enough shame producing any kind of art that I never finish any artistic project.
Most people are better than this, I think, but idk

Is quality of handwriting degrading in youth? My handwriting was horrible because I typed everything as a kid. My brothers handwriting (6 years younger) is even worse presumably because he did all his schoolwork on chromebooks. Can today's youth write well? Or is my family just cursed

If anyone has resources or advice for preparing for ASIC interviews I'd really appreciate it! I'm quickly discovering that we do not have our own version of "Cracking the Coding Interview".
Or maybe we do and I haven't found it?

First round passed and scheduling second now. I'm really excited because whether I get the job or not I'll be able to learn a ton about how to do this type of interview ๐Ÿค—

I think I nailed my phone interview! It was my first hardware interview (ASIC) and it was refreshing to finally be able to answer technical questions well

Is this not a way of confirming for yourself how much better you are than people who believe these stories

You could run Doom on 16 billion crabs Someone figured out how to make logic gates based on crabs, so running Doom on crabs is now only a matter of time (and crabs)

You can run it on crabs so we should definitely be looking into a bird port

It would wind up costing the average American less than they pay for private insurance now though wouldn't it?
That is of course a far cry from free, no disagreement there.

trump shouldโ€™ve been in handcuffs in jan 2021 and there is no way to quantify just how much human suffering will result from the disastrous decision to slow walk his prosecution or even avoid it altogether

Wasn't in the mood to pull up a historical picture, the beer is talking as I drink a Samuel Adams Porch Rocker.

I've got an amazing story about this one. Let me tell you all about how "If you've done nothing wrong you've got nothing to worry about" almost got me charged with unlawful possession of a minigun. 1/?

Funding journalism for a functioning informed society is a collective challenge not an individual one yet we keep insisting on pursuing individual solutions: attempting to convince each person why they should individually pay for access to news by saying things like it's "how journalists get paid"

Ok so yeah, this has quickly become the #1 misunderstanding about the canceled grants

the grants are not โ€œsubsidiesโ€ or โ€œentitlementsโ€ to Harvard or Princeton or whatever

they arenโ€™t going into universitiesโ€™ endowments

they are competitive contracts won by these universities to do research
