Docker added a button that says âAsk Gordonâ and advaith summed it up perfectly: bro who is Gordon. No warning. No intro. Just Gordon. Like heâs always been there. Watching your containers crash. Judging your Dockerfiles in silence.

OpenAI just split its soul in twoâand gave each half a new job title.
The company is restructuring into a capped-profit parent and a fully nonprofit research lab. The new setup separates frontier model research (run by OpenAI Nonprofit) from the productized ChatGPT empire (run by the for-profit OpenAI Global), with CEO Sam Altman leading both. Chief Scientist Ilya Sutskever and alignment researcher Jan Leike have exited stage left, but not before Sutskeverâs now-famous âsuperalignmentâ team was quietly dissolved.
Under the hood, this looks like a response to mounting pressure. Between safety critics, government scrutiny, and uneasy investors, OpenAIâs trying to reassure all sides: moonshot research can still happen, and ChatGPT can still ship updates on time.

Nika tossed out a big one: âHow do you keep work from eating the rest of your life?â
Answers ran the spectrum. A few folks draw a hard lineâlaptop shut at 6 PM, phone on focus, quick ritual like a post-work walk to reset. Others build physical barriers: a door that closes or a coworking spot across town. One founder straight-up quit a cushy dev job so dinner with his toddler wasnât a maybe. And yeah, someone admitted they still debug code while chewing pastaâprogress is messy.
Plenty of tactics, one theme: if you donât fence work in, it expands like foam. Worth a scroll if your Slack pings are starting to sound like a lullaby.
