Interesting! Just noticed that Hetzner Cloud is offering Arm64 VPS (Ampere). Was looking for a VPS hoster that offers arm64 and it's the first one I could find (in EU). Costs ~30% less compared to x86. https://www.hetzner.com/news/arm64-cloud

I really don’t get why baby books are gendered. When it labels the unborn child the same sex as the baby I’m having; it flows fine; but when they name it the opposite I feel like I’m reading the wrong book. In a language where we have a non-gender option of words; it’s interesting to see in a book how comfortable they are at switching the unborn child’s gender.
Yesterday I used the "git filter-repo" command for the first time. Have not felt such a thrill of power/danger since I first learned about "git rebase -i".

Whelp, hearing about the #shopify #layoffs — reports are 20% of the workforce, with Berlin 90% of the staff laid off. That really doesn't sound good.

All of tech worried about Frankenstein's monster without giving any thought to the core concern that Frankenstein was kind of a dick and that's how you get Frankenstein's monster instead of Frankenstein's cool pal who's fun to be with.
Something I really don’t like is how “hate” is used so lightly — especially by tech folks. Same for “dead” too (tech doesn’t die it’s just sand that can think). Over the last couple of years, I oft…

fellow tech workers, looking at the screenwriters guild striking, do you not feel that we too need a union? how many pointless layoffs have there been so these huge companies run by trust fund goons could do stock buybacks? we need a union.
Great article from @ShopifyEng on improving Ruby GC latency. But I feel like as a society maybe we’re spending these cycles in the wrong place?

Not content with banning native third-party apps, Twitter has continued to cripple their API and move to paid plans for very basic access. I was committed to support Twitter cross-posting as long as possible because there are still Micro.blog customers who want to keep a foot in the Twitter world. But we knew it couldn’t last forever. July 15th will be our last day to support cross-posting blog posts to Twitter.
Wow, hit 16,000 followers finally. Knowing my posts lately, y'all are either here for titties or you need a hug. Probably both.
