It's hard to not feel that Meta is the new "old" Microsoft (the Steve Balmer one) - a place that keeps people on their toes with layoffs. Mark Zuckeberg announced layoffs... again, 6 months later. 10K people to be impacted in April and May. Engineers I talk with are frustrated.

If these App Store ads were in our email inboxes, we’d all flag every one of them as spam.
Can you imagine having $48.2 billion cash on hand and YET still thinking "ah yes, those House of Fun Casino ads will grow our bottom line, let's do it"

Oh My God 🚨 This is a huge privacy issue, Apple. My app @watch_chess failed to decode a notification… because it’s from a completely separate app (a smart doorbell). And I got the token and everything to take a look at the screenshot from the camera. This is really serious 🤦🏻‍♂️

This was a masterpiece and the current Camera icon couldn’t be more uninspired.
How good is this extremely high res version of the original iPhone OS camera app icon?
Relational databases like MySQL and Postgres should throw errors when they table scan unless an explicit flag on the connection is set.

🏎 Ulysses clean build on M1 Max: ~65s. 🚀 Same but with Dropbox app NOT running: ~55s. Quitting Dropbox saves 10s or ~15% for me! Reproduced multiple times. WTF 🤯 Anybody else seeing this?

Many times, for practical purposes, the multiplier is infinite, because somebody created something that simply would not have existed otherwise.

I marvel at people who claim there’s no such thing as 10x engineers. If anything, 10x is a ridiculous underestimate. In experience developing software, some people can cut through certain kinds of confusion or complexity and produce results at an amazing rate.
