    I want to experience that. Jamaica was beautiful for the 6-7 hours I was there on my honeymoon. I can imagine how beautiful it would be to walk on those beaches at night with the galaxy hanging above. Man … you had a lucky childhood my dude.

    No doubt he’s a egotistical dick, but to say the world would be a better place without him is categorically false on many grounds.

    • The man popularized electric vehicles like no car manufacturers have ever been able to do.
    • SpaceX’s achievement in reducing the cost per pound and reusable rocket tech will have profound implications on our species survival over the long run.
    • Starlink coverage now provides relatively affordable internet to far more remote areas of the world.

    So while I think recent years of criticism is fair based on his behavior (why the hell is he wasting precious time on Twitter again?) to say the world would be better off without him is to overlook the substantial contributions he has made towards technological advancement and global connectivity. It’s important to separate the individual’s personal flaws from the broader value of their work. Just my 2 cents.

    You plant shit seeds, you get shit weeds.

    If it’s one thing I learned from the last BS they pulled during the protests last year, it’s that their actions will have little impact on reddit user behavior. People will complain and express outrage, but the vast majority of users will just sit back and take it like good little AI trainers.

    I for one will not be one of them. When they removed mods from communities that were in protest, that’s enough for me to stay clear going forward. As much as I miss the content, it warms my soul every time I think about the ad revenue they’re missing out on by my own personal decisions to not consume it.


  • Aye, most of my 10 year career in web dev is pretty much those commands. However, some advanced git concepts are worth diving into. Stuff like git bisect that can narrow down the exact commit that broke your app is an absolute life saver. Knowing how to git cherry-pick is also a git skill professionals should be comfortable doing. Migrating work from one branch to another without merging the entire branch is pretty common.

    Yup, same. RIF app was how I loved browsing reddit, and it shutting down over the API cost was devastating. Add in the forced removal of mods who didn’t re-open their communities that were protesting was the final nail in the coffin for me. Fuck their IPO.
