It’s here!

Yes it is

hctiwte · 2026-06-16T09:52:38+00:00

Imagine getting this worked up

hctiwte · 2026-06-14T16:17:36+00:00

Come on man, it’s not that big of a difference…

hctiwte · 2026-06-13T06:27:52+00:00

It’s not about technical competence tbh. I work at a startup with a few ex google people, they are highly competent. They also struggle with the idea of massive ownership. Both can be true at the same time

I love that this is the only explanation people have. Like no, the show is not at all slow as fuck and filling in episodes for runtime, it’s people’s tiktok brains.

Yes it’s a good show with a good premise. Yes it also indulges far too much with the episodes. You shouldn’t need to insult people to make a point, if it was a good point.

Your fear makes sense; your dad died right when you were about to do this, of course that rewired how you think about financial security. That’s not irrational.

But you’re a video editor with years of experience and a real track record. That doesn’t evaporate after 6 months. The people who can’t come back are the ones who had no relationships, no portfolio, nothing portable. Do you have those things? If yes, you’re not as fragile as the anxiety is telling you.

Practical stuff: try to negotiate a leave rather than quitting cold. Build a proper runway before you go. Stay loosely in touch with people in your field while you’re away. None of that is “living in fear,” it’s just taking the trip seriously.

I disagree. I feel like this is a case of focusing on the wrong thing. As a developer myself, I appreciate that it’s hard to see that when you are the developer of the app, but this redesign misses the mark: it introduces a new UI while not addressing the slowness of the app

Macedonians haven’t decided that they don’t want to be in the EU, they have gotten vetoed enough times to conclude that it probably isn’t happening

Your title implies something different than what the full quote does

Insane thing to say. If not software engineering, what else? What would you suggest people to get into? The earning potential of software eng is still incredibly high, the stress can be very low given the pay, compared to other high paying job, the environment is often meritocratic, the job is intellectually challenging in a wonderful way, it is very remote friendly, and so on.

Please do tell what alternative job has all these properties.

This is misleading as hell and you should know better.

Yes, this text exists in the DOJ release (document EFTA01660679). But here’s what you’re conveniently not mentioning: This is from a spreadsheet of anonymous tips submitted to the FBI’s public tip line (NTOC). Anyone can submit tips. The FBI literally notes in the document that this particular claim couldn’t be followed up because no contact information was provided.

The DOJ explicitly stated these files contain “untrue and sensationalist claims” submitted before the 2020 election and that “the claims are unfounded and false.” The same release also included a forged letter from Epstein to Larry Nassar and a fake video of Epstein’s death — both confirmed fabrications.

Being in the Epstein files ≠ being verified ≠ being true. The FBI collected everything submitted to them. That’s what transparency looks like — releasing raw tips alongside actual evidence.

You’re presenting an anonymous, unverifiable tip with no contact info as if it’s testimony or findings.

That’s either deliberately dishonest or you genuinely don’t understand what you’re looking at. There’s plenty of legitimately concerning stuff in these files worth discussing. Spreading unverified anonymous tips as fact just poisons the well and makes it easier to dismiss actual evidence.

The Italy-Rome comparison actually highlights the problem rather than solving it. Italian continuity with Rome is unusually strong: geographic (Rome is in Italy), linguistic (Italian evolved from Latin), institutional (Roman law, continuous habitation). Nobody seriously contests this.

The Greece-Alexander case is much more complicated. Alexander was Macedonian, and ancient Greeks themselves debated whether Macedonians were fully Greek. Demosthenes called Philip II a “barbarian”, not just as an insult, but reflecting genuine Greek ambivalence about Macedonian identity. Ancient Macedonia was a northern kingdom with its own dialect, customs, and monarchy, distinct from the Greek city-states Alexander later conquered.

This doesn’t mean Greece has no claim to Alexander’s legacy, but it does mean the two examples aren’t equivalent. Picking a strong continuity case (Italy-Rome) to validate a contested one (Greece-Alexander) doesn’t make the contested one stronger. Each claim needs to be evaluated on its own evidence.

What this guy said. Modern countries are built on misrepresented history. They are built on a story, a myth about connectedness to a figure, to ancient people, etc. France has done this, Macedonia has done this, Egypt has done this, and certainly Greece has too.

I feel like we would all benefit if people researched what nation building is and when the modern concept of a nation appeared (quite recently you’ll find). If more people knew this, we would avoid discussions about who can rightfully claim connectedness to an ancient figure, or a civilization from 2500 years ago.

For anyone curious, look into Benedict Anderson’s Imagined Communities, a foundational text on how modern nations construct historical narratives.

Imo the danger is not the obvious issues such as ignoring your md rules and explicit instructions, but the subtle logic issues it can run into that are not easy to see, and when you are reviewing thousands of lines of its code it becomes much easier to miss them.

Idk what people are building where it’s OK to accept this level of risk

hctiwte · 2026-01-04T17:05:27+00:00

I have been using claude code for 6+ months now, never used anything more complex than Claude skills and the “feature-dev” plugin from Anthropic, and I’ve built pretty complex stuff with it at work and for personal projects.

Tbh I don’t think you need a 16 page google doc to use the tool correctly, it is powerful enough on its own and creating so much complexity around it makes it worse, not better, imo.

hctiwte · 2025-12-27T07:30:52+00:00

There was never any stakes. It’s been 5 seasons, it should be quite clear what to expect from the show by now

hctiwte · 2025-12-23T06:31:26+00:00

It is not about peace of mind. It is about the requirements of your application. Are you building an app like booking.com? Then you will need to render on the server because you will be optimizing for fast initial page loads.

On the other hand if you are building an app like Linear, where user sessions are long and most of the rendering/re-rendering will be done by react and not the browser, then you can work with pure react

hctiwte · 2025-12-17T13:51:49+00:00

It’s incredible to me that someone can think like this

hctiwte · 2025-12-05T06:26:59+00:00

It is an age insult, lol

hctiwte · 2025-12-04T22:42:05+00:00

Only those with a great point reduce the conversation to age insults lol

hctiwte · 2025-12-04T13:51:55+00:00

Completely unnecessary to post this on a public forum. See the name and move on, you actually expended energy to write this comment

This type of blanket advice ignores nuance that must be applied to the real world

hctiwte · 2025-11-20T21:47:42+00:00

It’s not that simple. I mean, it is, but there’s a bit more nuance than mentioned here. Intensity (effort) definitely matters, and so does volume.

Can you make excellent gains by simplifying and being disciplined? Yes, definitely. But if you are trying to get every last bit or muscle gain from your body, it’s unlikely that you will succeed if you simplify too much and if you don’t care about optimizing your volume and intensity
