Helped start Ann Arbor's OG Coworking community, couponed at Groupon, usually working to get some startup acquired. Ember.js core emeritus. Paul Irish once called me a hero. ❤️ Ruby and JavaScript. 🏳️🌈. 📍Chicago.

Celebrated by taking a trip to a classic Pizza Hut. You have to really hunt for it on my busy shirt but yes I AM waring my Boot It! pin from the '80s.
Me watching random European dudes argue against adding 100+ year old climate control technology to their homes in an ever increasingly warming Europe because it's too American or something.

Someone using an LLM tried to help me debug an issue and was confidently talking about how a specific option we passed had these specific behaviors that might be the cause. cool story, I CREATED that option. Yesterday. *After* the bug cropped up.
I'm VERY, VERY convinced that "well know fact", "known limitation" etc is an LLMs highest probability output when it can't generate anything else.
