People also remember who the truly kind are. :)
You know when you offer to be helpful to someone but then really don’t try to help at all? Yeah they know too. I’ve learned to be more careful about saying the nice thing if I don’t intend to follow up by actually being nice. In the tech world lying is rampant but people…

It’s a privilege to welcome Windsurf to Cognition. Here are more details in the note I sent to our Cognition team this morning: Team, As discussed during our all-hands, we are acquiring Windsurf. We have now signed a definitive agreement and we couldn’t be more excited. Here’s…

Is anyone building a new version of @github? I am so fed up with the most basic stuff not working.
