BREAKING: The vast majority of software was just an over-engineered SQL wrapper before vibe coding was a thing.

Took two hours to read just fifteen pages the other day. Each paragraph gave me so much to think about, I had to slow down. I didn’t want to stop. I only ever feel this way when I’m reading or creating. But never scrolling.

There is a direct consequence between the rise of social media and the collapse of social discourse.

Yes! Love the idea of limiting the content I see in my feed.
