They’re handy for a niche variety of tests for sure. Or when coverage was sketchy to begin with and you need a quick and dirty regression test.

Happy Friday, ya'll!

I am slowly coming around to some aspects of the labor policies... although just as many are bonkers. They also vary widely between countries, no one-size-fits-all.

Labor law hacks like food delivery non-employee self-employed "partners" seem to be just as effective in Europe as they are in the US, with similar debates taking place around the topic.

That the biggest general problem with the European labor policies is their inflexibility and staunch resistance to change. "This is the way it has always been" is poison for startups that want to change the structure of how work gets done, offer non-traditional benefits, more vacation, more pay, equity compensation etc.

Dunno if there are any rubyists around, but recently open sourced a library to bring inline snapshot testing to ruby and rspec. How does one safely self-modify ruby code, you might be wondering? Turns out rubocop is already really good at that 😬

Where do I find out about interesting accounts on Nostr?

Yes that's one way. Better yet drop some of the unnecessary characters and reconcile cases where the pronunciation would be ambiguous. (ie. perhaps "twice" should be spelled "twais" to make the special pronunciation rule about the letters "i-c-e" unnecessary).

I agree for sure. It's just that it's happened in a highly distributed uncoordinated way (which is absolutely amazing in and of itself) and I wonder if some concerted effort could yield faster/better optimizations.

Why aren't we spending more to optimizing it?

I mean we certainly have and it evolves on its own.... but such a fundamental component deserves more directed attention. Also fascinating is the role that emojis have played recently, as a form of written language. They transcend spoken languages unlike alphabets, yet their meaning is far less precise.

Fascinated by Nostr so far.

It sits at the intersection of several related products and technologies. Very very curious to see where this goes and what it evolves into.

What is nostr?
