I you talk big, you must act big. You can't go around using a post office and subjecting yourself to prison time and lawyers. It's as simple as that. Otherwise you are not pure and…

I guess he is a hero? I hope he didn't mail you anything before he died. He had a grudge and took it out on random people. He survived longer in prison than he did in nature. Weird…

Big companies are also ridiculously overstaffed, as Elon Musk proved empirically. And many of them have only one thing that works and ambitions of doing more than will never work o…

Then again, maybe you don't have much worth writing or much to contribute - better off letting previous iterations of humanity do it for you.

Dismissing an important skillset by pretending it could be magical is called clickbait. The advantage of knowing a second language is to be able to communicate and understand a new…

My guess is the people who thought this was interesting, rather than just a source of reference, have never configured their own Linux installation. Sigh.

This is kind of a weirdly dramatic departure, as this was a union and a product that never made any sense on a napkin or the back of an envelope. Sigh. Hope to see him back on trac…

Does anyone else find it extremely ironical that FTX happened in crypto? Wasn't FTX one of the things crypto was meant to solve?

Weird space to wade into, as wealth inequality is no joke worthy of tweets.

I think the real question is: Twitter grew 3x on the headcount front with a flat stock price over the course of less than 5 years. What exactly where these thousands of employees a…

Sorry, you lost me at PHP on MySQL for financial transactions. That's hilarious.
