- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@mallocmyheart 😅 no guarantees, but I'm pinning this List to try to see everyone on it more often (truly idk what's up with the algo these days!)
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@bmock haha I like sending Likes!!! especially to positive & interesting tweets!!!
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@Delca__ I mean, it's not necessarily a very *funny* post, maybe you would unfollow or mute them, but I don't think there's any serious misinformation that needs clarification?
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@sidereal111 bold move... I do feel complimented by the other ppl on the list tho 🫶
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · post😳 https://t.co/Igbvo76CIv
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@scarletdeth yeah, I feel like GCs serve this role for me... tho they're kinda ephemeral and don't allow outsiders to read the content, so maybe for more structured debates or something?
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@MindEnjoyer ime most aren't that into it either? or at least don't suggest it to me and I'm happy to not open that door... 😅
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@MindEnjoyer agree I do not understand the appeal!
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · postfascinating... I have felt the same way wrt being gendered as M vs F, that I get taken more seriously w more direct replies abt technical topics https://t.co/wHr5lmsiGT
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@KojimaErgoSum @elonmusk lmao... but srsly tho, if rainbows don't get you w** that's a skill issue
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · quoteCommunity Joke sometimes fr https://x.com/wstone_bd/status/1699526314976309596
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · quoteso true- what IS the actual use case for Communities? https://x.com/wstone_bd/status/1699527113794056477
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@jeremymstamper haha good! you're one of the accounts who sometimes shows up on my TL a lot, and then I reply a lot, and I'm never entirely sure if a series of likes & replies from me might be too much...
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@bashu_thanks awwww 😊 thanks!
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@BootsPlatypus driver is the one at the keyboard & navigator is the one watching and planning ppl who pair all the time usually swap between both roles, but it can be advantageous for one person vs the other to drive on any particular task according to familiarity, focus, personality ....
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · postwho wants me to reply-guy to them more often? I'm making a List...
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@moderndiogenese @samswoora I don't feel my city is ruined- I occasionally see a homeless person but there are no crowds, no tents in public squares, no visible drug use or needles or trash, our public restrooms are well maintained, I feel safe walking anywhere at any time of day
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@KojimaErgoSum some ppl rarely eat in restaurants, for various reasons- to save money, they're in remote locations, fussy eaters who prefer routine over novelty, ppl with health conditions, extreme shyness
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@KojimaErgoSum lol I think many shy or autistic ppl might relate to this take?
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · postimo being careless of someone's feelings is not justified by "I'm just being honest" *many* things can remain unsaid ... and even necessary bad news can be delivered deliberately with kindness & authenticity.
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · post"RT != endorsement" high decoupling "focus on what you want to see more of" negativity of viral tweets trauma & triggers & processing "is less suffering always better?" leaning into discomfort for growth "here for a good time or an atypical high perplexity time?" 🤔
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@nickcammarata imo most pain is useful for survival - feedback telling you you're taking damage... the distinction some ppl make between pain vs suffering makes it difficult to answer tho
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@mynamebedan yeah, I was thinking maybe chaotic & unpredictable is more about creative divergent thinking? which is a useful attribute for innovators but not necessary for success?
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@msnegurski lol I'm kinda trusting no one cares all that much to figure it out
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · repostRT @Shahules786: Even though from a conceptual level MoE looks very simple, I learned that it is actually very challenging to make it work…Archive text may be incomplete
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@rob_mcstan ha I do on rare occasions... diagnosing & patching a prod performance issue or early commit of a new project where we're creating the vocabulary & project structure... I'm usually navigator lol, perhaps the person I'm helping wouldn't see it as formal "pairing" 🤷♀️
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@BootsPlatypus writing code w a partner
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@mynamebedan I don't think you need to be a whirlwind of chaos to be high agency- some of the ppl who accomplish a lot are clear about their goals & plans and simplify their lifestyle to minimize cognitive burden so they can focus mental energy on their goal?
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · postdo you prefer to be driver or navigator when you pair program? | do you find LLM coding tools significantly improve your productivity?
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@realtimeai we can provide safe quiet shelters w enough beds & showers & laundry, we can build & maintain sufficient public restrooms & trash bins, we can send street outreach teams & mobile drs who prescribe psych meds, we can add drug rehab slots so when someone is ready there's space

- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · postthe house my granddad built himself, and the house *his* granddad built himself... sigh, I'll prob use contractors for mine, like my parents did, but building our own homes is a fam tradition https://t.co/po5nzfSu3b

- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@eshear yeah agreed, I still feel more confident w new ppl when there's a goal or game to add some structure... otoh my absolute favorite thing is conversation w someone interesting & engaging
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@rob_mcstan lol I live nearby enough to walk & drive past frequently but am not the immediate neighbor across the street.... this is what it looks like tho https://t.co/jwMuBdFF7w
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@hgggrA @PartyAunty @samswoora I know some ppl locally who are disabled & on housing vouchers & have a county social worker who checks in w them- helps them plan medical care, etc... unsure how they got into the system but it does seem like a good idea vs letting health issues come to crisis again and again
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@SillyGoose_Guy nah, this has been a big fight for a year, the immediate neighbors don't like the noise.... but like, as a more visual than auditory person imo the view from their front windows just got so much worse

- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · quote@scholarsmate8 @a_musingowl a way of limiting "bad" accounts, social credit score kinda thing... I mean it's probably unfair in ways but also probably exists bec it worked 🤷♀️ https://x.com/xDaily/status/1693709116341129360

- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@rarelyquinn yeah haha this was part of my answer too- that by default I'd expect the "agenda" to be swapping life updates & chatting about shared interests... was curious to see how many ppl relate to the complaint or had better answers
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@imhinesmi 👍👍👍
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · postsomeone on a locked acct recently complained that it's weird their friends want to have lunch despite no particular problem to solve or agenda for the lunch. Do you understand this social norm and do you enjoy unstructured meals w friends? what is the "point"?
- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@riboprotein @samswoora no not necessarily... but also the "supportive" part is about having social workers and programs keeping them healthy & in recovery not isolated & relapsing

- Sep 6, 2023Twitter · reply@samswoora locally the shelter's street outreach team asks ppl to call them first if concerned abt a homeless person- they can sent someone w knowledge & rapport, and they're getting integrated w the 911 mental health team to respond to mental health crises rather than uniformed police https://pfva.org/impact/street-services/
