    Go see Weird Al. It was a really great show. My wife only knew one of his songs (Word Crimes, she's a professional editor), and she loved the show. I loved it too.

    At the center of every security situation is the question, "is the effort worth the reward?" We prepare security measures based on the perceived effort a bad actor would need to de…

    Elon has always been the face of Tesla since he acquired it from the founders. Early he was a brand asset, but tying one's identity so strongly to a company is a brand risk when th…

    This is the moment, but they refuse to market the product in a way that is acceptable, (and adds affordability) to consumers. If they would do a 55/45 beef/plant-based meat blend a…

    Well done. There is so much undefined in how agentic coding is going to mature. Something like what you're doing will need to be a part of it. Hopefully this makes some impressions…

    It's not that we are all fans of AI, it's that it's career suicide to ignore AI. If AI were gone for everybody that might be a net positive, but if it exists, it needs to get into …

    Before manufactured insulin shots, the treatment for diabetes was a multi-day oatmeal fast. This has been around for many decades. The only thing that's changed is that you are fin…

    "Utilities" is a generic term suggesting it is small, potentially reusable, purpose-limited, and used to simplify a task. "Utilities" doesn't indicate the audience or the intended …

    Yes but back then, everybody just got bored of their Ataris and moved on. Nobody is throwing out their phone or computer. Software will still be needed. That said, there will be a …
