i love elon’s idea to charge people to embed tweets - not because the idea is good, but that it displays how he’s no more tech savvy and inventive than any other metrosexual uncle who finds out you “know computers” and has an idea for an app

• QA Testers are devs • QA is integral too getting a game released • Game dev is not defined by who can “change the story” • There is a lot more to games than what you can see with your eye balls. • Demeaning their position because they “just test” is a bad take. stop it.

QA is actually really difficult and requires a boatload of critical thinking skills, and good QA is rare and incredibly valuable. -person who has worked as a software engineer with multiple QA departments and has also worked in QA (me)

My hot take is that QA is harder than SWE. SWE: model a solution to some problem. QA: model the problem, model the solution, model the interactions between those models and identify whether something about it is "wrong" and also how and why it's wrong.

Airbnb has announced a blueprint for a large tech company working entirely remotely. Notable features: there is one pay tier per country, regardless of where you live -- SF and Jackson pay the same. I think this is where everyone is going to end up.

Do you think most companies will eventually settle on the SF rate or the Jackson rate?

This is the million dollar question. Or, actually, given how much income is at stake, the multi-million dollar question.

I’m a world class Brazilian jiu-jitsu competitor. I train jiujitsu & lift weights daily. My cardio lets me grapple for an hour or more nonstop. My resting heart rate is in the mid 50s bpm. Yet, I’m still shaped like this. Feel free to come to my gym & tell me how sedentary I am.

In Arab culture when guests are leaving your home you insist that they stay no matter how late it is, but guests know it’s just a courtesy. I’ve learned the hard way not to do this with non-Arab friends because they WILL take you literally😭
