There’s a theory (I forget which) that morality of warfare rests on the agency of the warring parties to avoid civilian deaths. We didn’t have laser guided bombs in WW2 so it was more or less highly impractical (if not impossible) to just b

This is great to get another serious competitor in the hosted git space. I personally really like Gitea for its FOSS and simplicity.

I don’t disagree about the hospital bill being a work of fiction but hospitals are hardly the first business to have high up front capital investments and inventory requirements. Veterinarians, multi-modal shipping, leisure resorts, airline

Considering the popularity of off road use Japanese kei trucks imported to the US I’d agree! I also really want one of these.

We use this sometimes at work to show getting tests and other mundane things and I have to admit, when we first started we all learned a few new tools and new aliases to add. It’s amazing how much you can learn from the small things that ar

To me, thinking of tests as only code makes it more difficult to do TDD. You likely had a desired behavior you wanted to solve, something that didn’t exist or work before you started. The way you know it isn’t working before even starting t

If you are looking for other books, I’d also recommend “Normal Accidents” by Charles Perrow which is focused on what kinds of systems lend themselves to catastrophic malfunctions. From bakeries to nuclear reactors. It has a huge focus on ho

This article breaks my heart. As a (now) adult man who received very little “emotional scaffolding” from my parents - I can’t understand how anyone can think that all children don’t have to learn about how to manage (not just ignore) their

Something I don’t think many people know about is that marriages licenses, (yes you need a license to gain some tax benefits) often have an incentive to do pre-marital counseling. Tennessee, for instance, at least halves the price of the ma

Not speaking for anyone else, but breaks are important. I am more productive working a cycle of 50 minutes “work” then taking 10 minute breaks. I would count my walking outside to get fresh air (or decompressing with some HN) work as it’s h

Patience. It's hard to see the line or word you want to jump to and have to look at your keyboard and be like "what do I do?" For me it was basically tell myself "it's ok to be slow" and I started memorizing th

Tim, despite heading one of the top performing publicly traded companies has taken a pay cut to somewhere between 80th-90th percentile of "their peers". But this does not seem as impressive knowing only 64% of shareholders support

Here's the relevant excerpt from the SEC filing (page 11, edited for brevity): """ The Compensation Committee evaluates and makes compensation decisions prior to the start of each fiscal year... The Compensation Committe
