Love seeing more of these classic, important patterns getting codified like this as durable execution and workflows become a more widespread primitive of platform architectures.

Been saying this for a couple years now to anyone who would listen. Unfortunately that audience was pretty small. lol
Paul Frazee@pfrazee.com · 3mo agoI am now leaning "rust and typescript" are the only 2 programming languages in 10 years
sharing this again. let's celebrate some victories, people. Botswana is at the forefront of Africa overcoming a colonial legacy, moving to acceptance of people in all their glory. trans rights are enshrined in the constitution, both main political parties are onside. fuck yeah botswana!

Had my first MRI today. Everyone warned me about the noise. All I could think about was how much I wanted to record it. Guess that probably helped. Well, that, the valium, and keeping my eyes closed tight the whole time (I sometimes get hit by intense claustrophobia).

Do yourself a favor: donate blood, if you're healthy. Feels good to do a simple thing that actually helps someone😊
@missamarakay.bsky.social making great use of dev.to - What Should I do and Learn in 2026 is a really positive conversation. Loved the advice on joining a book club or circle, maybe even meeting an author you love who lives locally.

Why Do Some People Still Wear Masks In 2026 And On A Completely Unrelated Note Why Is Everyone In The Office Sick Right Now Apart From The Guy In The Mask?
Don't ever take this site or anything it publishes seriously. It is actively looking to hire people who hate Starfleet Academy to write about it. As of 8 pm on 10.3.2026, this is live on LinkedIn. Ask me again why I think the anti-SFA sentiment is manufactured. #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy

There are a lot of Bad People out there, but Sam Altman might be the scariest
SE Gyges@segyges.bsky.social · 6mo agosam altman's entire work history is extreme success because he's a great and inspirational salesman and then getting fired or denounced for being a lying weasel who will say anything
For the love of all things holy i am begging you please stop bringing the worst fucking takes imaginable from twitter and posting them here for clout.
Reminder that Paramount Skydance needs approval from Trump's minions to buy Warner Bros. Yesterday, its subsidiary CBS banned Stephen Colbert from airing an interview with TX Democrat James Talarico. Larry Ellison is sucking up to Trump by turning his media empire into MAGA propaganda.
This is monstrous. ICE can't be reformed, it must be dismantled and its thugs prosecuted for their crimes against humanity.
Sam Levin@samtlevin.bsky.social · 7mo agoElizabeth, a 10-year-old Minnesota girl, spent a month detained at the ICE facility in Dilley, TX before her release last night w/ her mom. Dilley now has a measles outbreak and hundreds of other kids remain detained. Elizabeth has flu-like symptoms and her mom has hives, a school official told me
This mid-afternoon Alex Pretti vigil at the Portland VA was not heavily promoted. But the crowd probably stretches a quarter mile or more. Americans are galvanized and grieving.
People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.
It's sickening that folks who don't have a pot to piss in are the only ones that can save us from all of this. The powerful, rich and politically influential will continue to remain silent in their comfy castles on the hill. Nobody is coming to help us.
Some people who could tell you about how law enforcement uses their de-escalation training.
