My issue with pattern 12 (explaining the wrong way without saying it's wrong) isn't that I get confused about what is the right or wrong way of doing something, it's that I'll usua…

The Wikipedia example is a gem because it explains everything that is wrong with Wikipedia. All of "technical" information on Wikipedia amounts to nothing concrete or useful unless…

Would be fascinating if Fastly is not be able to use GitHub, Travis, Terraform, pip, etc. to deploy their fix

If you did something like asked for the first and last digits and the other digits of the phone number in any order and then returned the list of phone numbers that contained those…

It feels like there are two categories of answers - the Strong Opinion and the Nuanced Answer. Which do you prefer? The Strong Opinion seems to answer directly given only the conte…

This will probably be an unpopular opinion but most software is just connecting a couple layers of abstraction to form a new, novel layer of abstraction that you get to design. You…

I'm currently using Obsidian Publish to build and publish the knowledge base website underlying the information I send people in my newsletter, which is something I've always wante…

I wasn't really thinking people would read into what I said as advice to openly post about the felonies they're committing on the internet.

No definitely not, the most popularized example of this is the 20 percent rule. I like people who like to learn. I want people to "graduate" from my company when they're ready, not…

Why is that nonsense? If I'm looking to hire a lawyer I would want to know what pro bono work they've done in the past. In fact, this is all but required by the American Bar Associ…

I use Roam Research for this purpose (and many others)

I'm still enamored by the battery life after all this time. I have never considered charging this laptop, only plugging it into a hub that also happens to charge it sometimes.

What fear causes you to separate your online presence between work and personal? I used to think others would assume I was on company time working on side projects but the reality …

I strategically published this newsletter this morning so that our executive team (most of whom subscribe) has a long form version of the thinking behind what we're going to presen…

I just hope I don't forget about this the next time Advent of Code comes around

Great idea! You might want to explain what gross/net means to the candidate and recruiter so there's no confusion about language.

I think there should be two ways to submit 1. Don't sign up, submission has to be reviewed 2. Sign up, submission doesn't have to be reviewed

Bold move

Yep, I think he actually coined the term signifiers while pleading for the the same distinction I'm trying to make. James J Gibson coined the term affordances though as far as I kn…

There's an incessant confusion about what an Affordance is in software design. This is a quick heuristic and justification for why it matters.

Does this really happen?

Love it. Can you please make it so the missed safe space is highlighted after the loss?
