You're SO brilliant, @elonmusk . Another huge success with Starship, & more to come, no doubt. But... is it possible your unique brain doesn't operate fully-compatibly w/ human 99%, and thus staying out of their politics would actually be the smart move? #corecompetencies ?

Suggestion @bryan_johnson : given reactions, hair & skin & lifestyle stuff should just be a separate brand. If #dontdie is a 'religion', it's clear, simple, unambiguous. Anything called 'Don't Die' is medically-backed life-extension, period. 2nd/3rd-order stuff is: 'Do Flourish'?

Maybe now @SlackHQ will finally remove the Skype ID from the AboutMe section, and replace it with coordinates that are actually useful?? arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/0…

I’ve been using @nodejs since 2011 and I’m tired of seeing the operational gap between developers, operators & the wider business grow. With today’s release, @platformatic is bridging this gap and changing the way we use Node.js, tackling these three issues 🧵

I have fought my way through "For All Mankind", almost to the end. And I'm sorry, space fans, but... this thing is just a high-budget frontier soap opera. No heart, no brains, bad acting. They should've just called it "Ponderosa in Space". We deserve better. There, I said it.

My dear, dear software people: there should be no entity in your app's 'States' drop-down called "Washington, DC". It is "District of Columbia" or "DC" for short. Washington is a *city* located within DC.

Y'all need to check out @fastifyjs if you've been in Express land. Still forming an opinion but so far I'm liking it. Some things I'm getting into but can't fully speak to yet: global/self encapsulation, decorators, hooks, and everything-as-a-plugin.
