if you feel like the quotations in this article, e.g. this one:

> I don’t feel like working on [it] anymore. It went from being one of the most fun experiences in my life to making me feel terrible everyday.

why are you doing it? stop! go outside, go for a hike, get a bike, train for a marathon, play video games... anything but writing code you're not paid to write that is making you miserable.

I just find music on sites like p4k, opening bands at shows, or the "similar artists" feature on Spotify which always suggests real people for me, they have convincing photos and often upcoming shows listed so probably not an AI bot

If you have golden handcuffs and multiple promotions out of being Sarah, what is it costing you?

generally I use either the search box, which is always going to return the Geese album and not AI slop if I type "Getting Killed", or the library view on the left side, I don't think I've never seen an AI album on Spotify, where are you getting them?

given the tiny wheels, a chainring that would be "normal" on a 700c 1x gravel bike should be very easy for climbing on a folding bike.

E5s making $900k, $E6s making 1.5m… quite common.

The 2022 RSUs at Meta have more than doubled since the grant price, and are mostly vested out now, ending Feb 2027, after which there will be a steep TC decline for people employed since 2022, especially those on an initial grant or with very good performance for that refresher. There are a good portion of people sitting on either FIRE or at least extended funemployment amounts of money that the severance is looking mighty tempting to.

thanks for the articles...

lol, wtf. I mean, I am a moderately serious cyclist, I guess (~250 miles/week) and also climb, hike, other outdoors sports etc. So I do care about performance and diet and such. But there is zero chance I am sticking a needle full of something I bought on the internet into myself—what on earth?

I work in big tech and have never heard anyone talk about "peptides". Is this a startup scene thing or just an SF thing? (I live in New York)

all of my coworkers are pretty normal, sure there are the stereotypical fitness types that are marathon training, cycling, or have a climbing gym membership but no one is talking about buying weird Chinese drugs

you have hundreds or thousands of files to fix. that is unreviewable as a single commit, but as a per-file, per-library, per-oncall, etc. commit it is not that bad.

> The time of other devs is quite valuable and I can't imagine wasting it by having them review something that doesn't even make it in.

this is now what stacked diffs are for. stacked diffs doesn't mean putting up code that isn't ready. for example you are updating some library that needs an API migration, or compiler version that adds additional stricter errors. you need to touch hundreds of files around the repository to do this. rather than putting up one big diff (or PR) you stack up hundreds of them that are trivial to review on their own, they land immediately (mitigating the risk of merge conflicts as you keep going) then one final one that completes the migration.

I don't use Github but I do work at one of the companies that popularized this workflows and it is extremely not a big deal. Pull, rebase, resolve conflicts if necessary, resubmit.

I would rather prefer web pages do not gain the ability to make my phone vibrate.
