  • I guess I’m the pug jesus today. From wikipedia:

    Before the speech, while Reagan was joking with NPR’s audio engineers during a soundcheck, he riffed on his own speech, saying, “My fellow Americans, I’m pleased to tell you today that I’ve signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.” This sort of levity was common for Reagan; he injected his humor into soundchecks, outtakes, and downtime throughout his careers in show business and politics.









  • Just because Seattle is the only city in Washington state anyone has heard of doesn’t mean that everyone from Washington state is from Seattle:

    “I hereby order Igor Lytvynchuk to return to Hawaii to face federal penalties of up to a $70,000 fine and year in prison, and for the general public to note this guy is actually from a suburb people live in just to seem 2% better than people in Kent, not Seattle,” said U.S. District Judge Paula McCandlis. “Sure, we have many pieces of our own shit living in Laurelhurst, etc, but please let it be stated for the record that this particular steaming pile of crap is from Covington.”




  • It’s just a lot all at once, and you can ship serious projects with just the other four. If you’d said you had a broader experience with more languages and frameworks, I’d be more inclined to recommend the broader program because effectively you’d have less to learn, since you already would have encountered most new paradigms and ideas in other environments. I suspect your biggest risk is getting overwhelmed and giving up, either by putting the keyboard down, or farming out your work to an llm and not learning anything, and I think it’s easier to stay engaged with a smaller curriculum.
