I finished my first oil painting in 25 years. I don't generally post identifiable images of family, but this was special. My mom and dad. My mom is very sick and doesn't have a ton of time left, and I wanted to make sure she finally got a painting from me (I went through art…

Look on the bright side, your coworkers don’t write shitty code anymore. It’s all Copilot and Cursor now.
Cursor AI tells me I’m “absolutely right” an awful lot. 😂 It’s like working with an over-zealous junior developer that types really fast.
Ready to roll up your sleeves with AI? Next Thursday July 10, 1–3:30 PM ET we’re live-coding agent workflows—from setup to scale. See patterns, traps, and metrics in action. Ship smarter next week ai.thisdot.co/events

Daytona Launch Week! Giving Agents the Tools Human Developers Have Always Had
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA This has to be fake. Louisiana just passed a bill to ban “chemtrails”? This is the world we’re live in. Full of actual morons 🤣🤣🤣 This can’t be real. newsweek.com/louisiana-pill…
It’s real!! the bill was sponsored by @KimLandryCoates, and if you look at her Twitter account, she’s got retweeted content about people “Geo engineering”. hahaha. I’m in tears laughing. I can’t believe it. This is seriously the dumbest thing I’ve ever read in my entire life.…

More big news: We're going to open source the GitHub Copilot extension then refactor it into VS Code core. AI-powered tools are core to how we write code. Working in the open leads to better products and stronger ecosystems. We want #VSCode to be the best open source AI editor…
Today, we're announcing plans to make VS Code an open source AI editor. We believe AI development should stay true to VS Code's core principles: open, collaborative, and community-driven. Let's build the future of software development together. aka.ms/open-source-ai…
After 19 years at Microsoft, this week I say goodbye to the place I called home for those many years. I cherish all the memories and all the friends and colleagues along the way but it’s time for a new adventure elsewhere when I’m ready. Thanks to everyone who went along on the…
🅰️Angular folks, Some Signals vs Observables info... 1. Use signals for state management, not observables. 2. Use observables for cancellation and other event coordination. 3. DO NOT TRY TO USE SIGNALS LIKE RXJS. It's a bad/silly idea. They are complimentary technologies. 1/
Introducing Daytona Cloud: the first agent-native cloud infrastructure. Fast. Stateful. Built for agents, not humans. Available today.
