jmoiron plays the blues

@jmoiron.bsky.social Go generic methods have been accepted. Don't find this particularly readable: func (*G[P]) m[Q any](x Q) { … } Go's advantage has always been how transparent the code is. Maybe you hate for loops, but you knew what they were doing! Even that's not so true anymore.
@jmoiron.bsky.social I keep seeing people repeat "AI is destroying the jobs market" uncritically, without any hard evidence, and it's crazy that this is accepted on its face despite the confounding factor of "a year of instability under an ever changing regime of spite-based tariffs."
@jmoiron.bsky.social Maybe the internet was compromised by a magic Nokia, but this train got me from Tokyo to Fukuoka (1090km) in 4h45m. Some friends are taking Amtrack home to NYC from Toronto today because the airports here are still impacted by the storm, 750km.. 14 hours.
@jmoiron.bsky.social Yeah, I really hate this take that anything short of welcoming antisocial behavior in public spaces is like ordering a pogrom on the poor. It reinforces a conservative narrative that the only effective recourse is state violence, and since that's bad, you have to deny the problem...
