The recent times showed us that technical solutions are bananas.

Guardrails must be put at the constitution level, or any tech bypass can be just declared illegal.

all good but what’s the font in the last image?!

I wanna say Berkeley Mono [1] because it's what I use and it looks very familiar, but I'm generally bad at font stuff. I typed out the text from the image and looked at it side by side and didn't notice anything obviously different, but some glyphs also have multiple variants so who knows.

Yes. It's Berkeley Mono. I use that one, Commit Mono and Mono Lisa depending on how I feel :)

The 7 is different though.

Just FYI, in case it isn't obvious, you are replying to the author of the image in question, IIRC.

The @ sign makes me think it's https://usgraphics.com/products/berkeley-mono

Or maybe one that's imitating it.

Yeah it's hot...

passkeys are the obvious answer, but not sure

what’s embarrassing about that?

one reason to do that could be it’s trained on conversations happened between humans.

"I have to either get rid of one of your coworkers or your laptop, which is it?"

what the hell

how do you tell they deployed new stuff?

See https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/incidents/lfrm31y6sw9q

"A change made to how Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall parses requests caused Cloudflare's network to be unavailable for several minutes this morning. This was not an attack; the change was deployed by our team to help mitigate the industry-wide vulnerability disclosed this week in React Server Components."

The bug is known since several days, and the hotfix was already in place. So they worked on the "final fix" and chose to deploy it on a friday morning.

so what one should do after a certain age?

Continue to perform or live off the savings.

Well you said you’d fire them/not hire them at all. No benefit of doubt

Correct. To get to the staff engineer level you probably spent at least 10 years in the industry making gobs of money. You did save some, right? Right?

depends if you’ll still need skills to deliver or if it will be something anyone with some interest is able to learn in few months
