I’m actually surprised there aren’t already 20 alternatives to Twitter written in Rust

Great job, the system is broken as fuck anyway. The fact that he used AI to do it is the karmic cherry on top! Ideally, you should be able to run the model on the cloud of the company you’re interviewing for, just as an extra ‘fuck you’.

You seem completely detached from the grueling experience of being interviewed, so it’s unsurprising that you don’t understand why somebody would want to burn this whole thing down.

No need for a new direction, right? Biden can run for president even if dead, and liberals would still vote for him.

I was going to write that every function should be a service as sarcasm, then I realized that’s exactly what this article is proposing. Now I’m not even sure how to make a more ridiculous proposal than this.

Official state cryptids? What’s next? Official imaginary gods and myths? Oh wait…

Protip: just do a nazi salute and Teslas will avoid hitting you

Move fast and break things. What could possibly go wrong?

If you use VSCode, Rest client is so much better than Postman. Requests are simple text files that area easy to edit, version and share with others

I unironically had a screening interview with a recruiter that asked “If you were creating a startup, would you use microservices?”. She didn’t like that my answer was “It depends, I don’t have enough information to answer”.

It looks nice, but you have to sign up for an account to use a terminal app? This is really getting ridiculous

Oh, that sounds great!
