    Had a ex-friend who went real hard last year about feeling his masculinity has been challenged. Went deep into the manosphere language. He was extra annoying. Every convo was about how he, a white man in America, was being repressed. He started labelling random shit as masculine/feminine. Got sick this and stopped inviting him.

    A few months later, I learned the divorce was finalized and he’s been sending me invites to hang with him in his bachelor pad. Nah dog you suck now.

    Wait time is getting slashed across the board. An example: If in rush hour traffic, 8 minutes was added, but now it’s 3 minutes, that’s five minutes of car fumes and CO2 avoided, of more cars moving about, of goods being transferred. We’re not shaving seconds, we’re shaving literal minutes!

    We’re talking about hundreds of thousands of vehicles. This is New York with millions of people. People, businesses, all these things are affected. If you combine this with other data, you might better see the outcomes.

    This isn’t tiny incremental gains. From a economic/environmental/commerce standpoint, these are multipliers.




  • This was pointed out a few years ago, using comparisons from the js framework wars, and the js tooling wars.

    To gain adoption, they need to do things better by a multiplier. Why is Vite the standard now? Because gulp was doing too much, and webpack was a complex mess. Vite is so fast, lightweight, and works.

    Node and the Node contributors are taking every single idea Deno has and implementing them faster and better.

    Deno is a nice idea, but it’s getting their lunch eaten.



  • Pretty sure they took a photo of you. Then they hung it in the back of the store on their “Check out this guy” board. Under your photo, they wrote “ordered two, like a psychopath.”

    They also posted to chipotlebook, which is a secret social media platform for chipotle workers. Your photo has 12000 comments and 16823 laugh emojis.

    Your photo was also shared in the Chipotle shadow council. There’s a bean counter (pinto) noticing you’re willing to buy two burritos and eat them in a single trip. He does some calculations, and realizes that money making opportunity here. Where the texmex realm mocked you, he sees you as his golden goose. The new “Double Stuffed Burrito” makes bajillions. He’s been carrying your photo on his wallet.

    The world cares more than you think.










  • My kids love the cup song. That’s when I learned about her.

    Then a few years later, some friends and I had a “bad movie night” where we watch movies and take shots during specific bad scenes, and the film was twilight. Anna Kendrick is young in the film (still baby faced) and incredibly forgettable when compared to all the other wacky scenes.
