IMO your first mistake was not having an out when the director got fired. As nostrademons3 says, you should have been networking and finding your “next gig” within the company if y…

Just played around with a PWA on iOS and added it to Home Screen. Works really really nicely and so it seems pwa have come along a lot since I last looked into them! Thanks for the…

Agreed I’d rather spend more time on itch. But from a dev perspective poki has a chance to monetise while itch monetisation is near zero at the moment.

This should be auto posted as first comment on every post about a new technology / platform

Web gaming might be a decent incremental revenue source ( But it will never be more than that. 1. Game ops is too entrenched in mobile. The entire stack (user acquisition, analytic…

Every so often, I want to get an epub of Paul Graham’s essays (eg right before a flight). Hopefully I’ll remember to use this

Low wit: writers must have got busy Mid wit: this is a poignant soliloquy in the state of the open web High wit: writers must have got busy

Reminds me of the Ali G skit

The article was disappointing. It’s the first time in a while I’ve read the Economist but I feel the quality has really gone down. Why did the Department of Health state there was …

Such a breath of fresh air to read this. I choose to work remote and only look at companies that do that. My first was Canonical. Since then I worked at a startup and when they wen…

I don’t see what YT did wrong here even remotely. It’s their platform. There is no right to access. It’s not a public place. The hard core libertarians who say that Brands “free sp…

This dude was a VP at JP. Surely he should be networking for a job, not applying to job sites?! Seems like they are going down the wrong channel. I’ve never filled a senior positio…

Genuine question: why all the hassle when it’s so easy to reset passwords?

> Apple hides option to allow unsigned apps from the Mac GUI How so? Isn’t this still an option in settings? Or are you referring to something else?

Makes me so happy to know EFF and ethical hackers like this exist. I know they can’t test every app and every situation, but that there are hobbyists like this is such a testimony …

Such a large premium on current share price. I can’t see this end any way other than a PE gutting of the company to make the economics work.

Not at the VP Product level.

> my wife's colleagues Your wife’s colleagues are not the scientific community at large. Organisations such as WHO and numerous government regulators flat out lied to the public th…

I will still be extremely surprised if the dude gets more than a 2-year open door no prison better than budget hotel prison sentence.

I’ll never understand why people think an office is important for any reason other than monitoring time at desk. The office is a sea of noise cancelling headphones. Globalised work…

Covid debunks all your claims. I’ve taken all my covid jabs and boosters so I’m not coming at this as some alt right antivaxxer, but the systemic and systematic shut down of any di…

TLDR lawyers became politicians

I don’t understand who the audience is (obv not me). People who make models for a living: hard to remove them from excel. Likely view this product as superfluous. Likely find excel…
