you mean the fun and DX? lol

What % of this warming is due to humans? Aren't we exiting an ice age...?

Ok

Yeah talking about small teams.

Disagree, I guess. Agile is worse than nothing.

Treat it like a normal job. Often no "management" is needed. Get done what you can, talk to you tomorrow.

... huh?

Tesla died alone and is revered, he was a loser personally -- like musk. That was my point that you wooshed

Any open source project? Typically people work on what they care about or what is obviously needed. Go with that flow instead of against it. Hire people eager to contribute.

Everything else seems incidental

> The point is that you somehow got offended

that's your point?

op: "I think elon is a douche"

me: "I disagree"

you: "YOU DISAGREE HA HA!"

k...

> It's just Elon Musk living alone

ok? what about the inventor Tesla?

who said that?! goahead and have an opinion about the NFL armchair quarterback, but we both know who is the better quarterback (CEO)

> but just miserable

....huh?

> Elon Musk when there is nothing really worth being him

maybe you're projecting? are you depressed..?

> but that's kinda funny.

no one cares, I think, lol

kind of a word salad, apologies if I missed your point..?

Not really envy? I am extremely impressed. Most people I feel are jealous of billionaires, I certainly don't want that kind of stress.

Do I care that Turing was gay? No, I don't typically care about these giant men's personal lives as long as they're not insanely evil or something.

JFK and Musk being womanizers? Meh. Cool guys, for the most part, imo.

No, we don't need all this nonsense (on small teams)

I hate all the meetings, which we can "feel" don't make sense. When we all "feel" a meeting makes sense, we naturally hop in. Totally different vibes.

Huh? Why don't lots of successful open source softwares run on agile, then?

Pretty sure having motivated people who find the work kinda fun destroys agile/any other methodology. When people wake up excited to pull down tickets or just get shit done, you're doing business right.

automating baulder's gate and such; game automation made me feel like I was a god. waking up in the morning and finding a ton of items _for free?!_ my god, what an incredible feeling as a kid.

gaming tournaments, making websites for my teachers.. I probably programmed 10,000 - 20,000 hours before I was paid a substantial amount. the first "contract" I ever did was for Magic The Gathering online when I was ~12...! made a little state machine that would rarely fuck up, always recover from problems, etc. etc.

> it's fairly fun to solve puzzles, but I don't enjoy it with the feverish intensity that the best developers seem to.

Sorry man, but if you aren't up all night having a blast solving problems then people like me will semi-easily crush you. For decades I've lost sleep because I'm obsessed with problems.

There's no way to compete. You kinda get the leftovers, if there are any?

Maybe switch careers into something you are super passionate about, or there's a ton of job openings where passion isn't as consequential.

Sorry to say, but yeah, why _should_ you beat me if I work twice as hard?

Nope was replying to you, realizing you weren't OP

> I don't see any reasonable person who could envy him.

OK!

I bet you won just as many dice rolls and you're no where near his success.. lol

How did he find success with Paypal? What about before that?

That it's just luck you win 50 dice rolls in a row, calling them each time. Maybe he knows something you don't, if you can't see it. Pretty clearly beyond luck at this point.

It's like a weird defense mechanism because you're jealous. "He's just a crypto bro."

Pretty hilarious.

He's literally the richest man in the world, what?

It sucks so no one uses it :)

I don't understand how what you're describing is batteries included where Django isn't?

It's typically not practical to solve "auth flows" in a centralized way -- needs are so different for different projects. There are tons of third party modules you can just plug in...

...you can just _do_ that? Channels, model save fires realtime frontend update, frontend handles that update.

Would be an awesome pattern to demonstrate, but doesn't have to be built in..

No, not really. That's life... you're taking a risk.

Taking a risk just driving a car, I don't get why you can't take a risk with a medicine.

??? What? I don't think so? Literally experiencing this right now...

"No dad, it's a scam; there's no evidence, 100 people have taken it with no success, etc."

I have a severely disabled dad and have had this convo.

Meh, why not just let some people get fleeced...?

"Sorry, you can't buy cars privately any more -- you need a gov't agency to make sure you don't get screwed. You cannot fend for yourself, right?"

It's working perfectly afaict. "What is a woman?" for example was streamed a gajillion times just fine. The 700k stream of DeSantis or whatever took twitter down though, I doubt it will next time..

Huh? No one else has experienced this as far as I can tell. any sources? I can ping it right now from AWS or something, it's working great ...

Twitter cost cuts seem amazing...?

Obviously there was an insane amount of bloat. Many popular apps with similar scale run with 20-100 engineers ....... they had like 4500 or something?

Insane waste. Remember that lady going on about "how dare you critique infra! we use graphql!" Nonsense, they were obviously not that valuable: twitter is running great with them all gone..
