Looking forward to their first album dropping.

This is a great article, but I think it’s hard to ignore that Japan’s culture of harmony is a big part of why they were able to choose sensible regulations that benefitted everyone…

Yeah. I think most orgs have no idea what they are missing.

I gave a lot of shit about my employees the first time I was a manager. It burned me out, but it made for an amazing team.

I don’t mean specific features, I mean specific verticals. I.e. one app that nails a specific type of business and replaces a dozen disconnected tools.

100%. Saas isn’t going away, but the economics are changing drastically and that’s bad for one-size-fits-all tools, and excellent for niche solutions. But it’s still saas, just mor…

Even if you power a typical EV from 100% coal, it pencils out as about equivalent to a late model Prius. And any improvements in the energy mix take it further.

Ironically, Russia probing defenses in Europe is functioning like Chaos Monkey — revealing vulnerabilities and triggering hardening.

Either scientist or chef

That is more or less what BAML does

BeOS was so amazing; I ran it for a while on x86 hardware. Ahead of its time. But I always loved NeXT. (I'd go down to the local university computer store to drool over them. The s…

Suspension bushings because of design flaw that dumps rainwater on them regularly afaik

I really would love to move to helix but they can be… stubborn about what gets into the core. And if you start having to go to a plugin (which isn’t even possible last I looked) to…

You should extend it into the past. Hapenny hit hard.

Have you ever tried to get an average human to do that? It’s a mixed bag. Computers til now were highly repeatable relative to humans, once programmed, but hopeless at “fuzzy” or a…

Yes this is strikingly similar to humans, too. “Not” is kind of an abstract concept. Anyone who has ever trained a dog will understand.

Ah, I heard about it, but the timing never worked out to try it. Good to have some confirmation!

YMMV I guess, but I found the best coffee at kissatens, and I hate dark roasts. Lots of great, sometimes super tiny, third-wave pourover types, too. But I guess Japanese coffee cul…

I 100% get this, but I will say that the gamification has meant I've stuck with it for a while. I don't know if it's out there, but I'd love something with better teaching methods,…

I was leaving a company recently and the fresh grads, with whom I had a good relationship, asked if I had any advice. I said, “Always remember that the company is not your friend. …

Things got significantly darker after 9/11.

Trump doesn't understand soft power, nor how much he has destroyed in such a short span. I have hope that a some future point we can repair these relationships, but they will never…

Peace without justice is just conquest.

Oh, I'm not directly associated with it, and I don't use it mostly because that specific feature is missing. And they're in rust, so I'm not sure how well c bindings work. Still, r…

This feels like it would be interesting in the Helix editor. They don't have a good solution for traditional regexp search-and-replace, but this would fill that niche in a more ele…
