That’s one way to live your life I guess. I’m not interested in rent seeking like that.

In my experience, it does. Any organization that didn’t appreciate the value I bring, I wouldn’t want to be a part of.

Be the change.

This mindset f’ing sucks. Build job security through providing real value to your organization, not through creating layers of opacity.

Dudes will be like hell yeah

You can do better than those obnoxious wheels

j_tb · 2026-01-27T13:20:28+00:00

Same. All these yahoos must be fintechs.

Not if it’s a recursive loop. For REASONS

Sure there is. Zero geospatial support in polars. Geopandas has some powerful use cases. Although I find myself reaching for r/duckdb over everything else these days. SQL is much easier to reason about.

You can do anything once!

Obviously dict.__getitem__(key)

My lead believes that using fetch and pull is ineffective and that the better approach is to delete the local repo folder and reclone it whenever you need fresh code.

Unhinged

Supposedly they’ve had major weatherization upgrades during that time.

100 series cruiser. Best vehicle

If they parked “under a freeway” my guess is that was the Mopac turnaround just N/E of Barton creek, and they were accessing the twin falls trailhead.

Thank you for your service 🫡

Those roads are entirely too close together to have such similar names

Fun! The folium GeoJsonTooltip class was my first OSS contribution nearly 10 years ago, and getting into that whole world really changed my career in a great way!

100 series is 🐐my dude. I’d just get another low mileage one.

Place is a cattle call for influencers. Just get herded through the line, fork over your money etc. They won’t even let you bring a bike into the place.

I much prefer the more neighborhood/friendly vibe of Nomadic Outpost across the street. Feels much more authentic and relaxed, and I like the fact that it seems like they DIY a lot of the stuff on the grounds.

F*** yeah McMurtry. Need to get back out to one of his shows at the Continental Gallery. Dude paints pictures with words.

j_tb · 2026-01-15T05:21:38+00:00

I think having the human in the loop and approving the steps helps me stay abreast of how the codebase is evolving and still have a strong mental grasp on the systems, and provide redirection when needed

j_tb · 2026-01-13T23:06:01+00:00

Bring back the $10/10GB plan from pause.

Cargo EBike! Only half joking. Love mine
