There's probably some mathematical relationship between car dependency, time, and urban sprawl too.

Back in the 70s there may have been 1 or 2 affordable neighborhoods in your metro area where people in their late 20s could buy a house -- and they were both probably fairly close to the city center. Nowdays, I'd say those neighborhoods are likely to be farther away from the city center (exurbs) and thus farther away from each other.

I think about this with my hometown friends in the PNW. Growing up we all lived in Bellevue, Redmond, and Kirkland, and now those areas are all too expensive and folks are living in Issaquah, Duvall, Renton, etc.

Well said. When I was a grad student, chasing what would have been a doomed career in cellular neuroscience, I was unfortunate enough (fortunately in the end, perhaps?) to get struck down by a significant depressive episode. This ended up being the feedback signal I needed to consider changing things up, and I did.

Yea, interesting how this outs the README as AI Generated.

I don't think any human would ever write a sentence like this without first explaining THE FREAKING CONTROLLER IS MOVING BY VIBRATING

Proximity Creep Mode: Automatically cuts haptic pulse frequency by 50% when the controller is within 150 pixels of the puck to ensure a gentle magnetic dock.

Don't worry, it's happening

100%. Canaries in the coal mine.

This leak coming after all the reassurances that the intitiative passed privacy review and wouldn't be a leak risk is soo damning.

Not only have the employees lost faith in the executive's integrity, but their basic competency as well.

You'd be a fool to spend more than 30 seconds on it if you'd played an actual MMO anytime in the last five years. It's immediately apparent how poor quality AI-generated games like this are.

Hey. This is a total nightmare in my opinion. The dark mirror of something that I know and love and represents one of the highlights of human digital authorship.

If you'd like to play the actual game with other SWEs I'd invite you to help me start a guild for SWEs: https://unplanned-downtime.com/

This effect is likely be excarcebated in teams which are suffering layoffs this year. Even less people to clear the in-flight queue of partially complete tasks

That's about $200 a koku at Costco

Seriously. Very Claude-y vibes from this post. I guess the value of human effort doesn’t extend to writing your own blog posts

Did not realize this. That's bizarre!

A few years ago I traded my huge Google Pixel 6 for a 3 inch Uniherz Jelly.

It's not perfect, as I still spend a lot of time on Reddit and HN on the tiny screen while commuting, but it's moved the needle for me.

Hmm, it seems that time spent with children has actually been increasing

This is cool! However I think the page is not interacting with the back button functionality correctly, at least on mobile.

Yeah. Unclear after reading this whether anything meeting their definition of GenUI actually exists or whether this is just speculation

Love to see it! If only I could convince my bosses to invest in tracking this info...

shudder

The last tweet is a little confusing. Teacher's unions? Really?

Sounds like BS. Define "Metaverse technologies"

I think they're sincere, though? I can't tell and I'm a little concerned

Indeed, the one upside of Cul-de-sac suburbs!

But really, kids should be able to do that in a park instead of having to scramble whenever a car pulls up.

What the Fox News are you talking about?

Lovely article. I wish the author would have spent more words explaining why he is so against laneway houses, though.

This is amazing!

There was a rather compelling pathway proposed years ago: skeletal muscle activation leads to the secretion of a protein in the blood called Irisin. This protein then crosses the blood-brain barrier and upregulates brain-derived neurotrophic factor.

For me the best company gifts are small mundane things printed with company-specific inside jokes. Coffee mugs with quotes from the team, references to past projects or humorous incidents, that kind of thing. I'm not going to bring that stuff outside the office, but it does a lot to make me feel like a m member of the team in an "I was there" way.
