I can only surmise you’re referring to Daring Fireball, not James’s blog. You might want to check your monitor’s color calibration (specifically its white point) or brightness setting. DF is and always has been white/light gray on dark

The Chatham House Rule is not a legal principle. If you violate it by recording a meeting in a one-party consent state, the most likely consequence is that you wouldn’t be invited back. (Someone else posited legal consequences under contrac

A teammate here in the Bay Area is currently collaborating with someone in Israel. It is possibly the worst time zone difference I’ve seen. Worse than Japan/California has been for me.

A lot of the people who make money for the bank were already doing much of their job over email long before the pandemic. (Which directly led to proving the LIBOR scandal.) The longer I’ve been working under my own part-time return to offic

In my experience, very little changed about how my work is done. I spend most of my time interacting with source control and a debugger. I just started doing that from home instead of in an office, and traded 2h of daily commuting for a lot

You don’t need a corporation to deed land to a group. Any group of persons can hold title to a property. My wife and I had to choose whether to buy our condo as joint tenants or as tenants in common.

I don’t think thats how my HOA works. I live in a high rise; I believe the HOA owns the common areas but grants exclusive use of certain parts to owners/tenants.

It’s slightly funny that your last link is to the website of a museum at SFO airport. I like SFO a lot for having such installations and an overall calm vibe.

It’s worth pointing out the incongruity of calling online theft “violent in nature” and then directly comparing it to mugging, which works off the threat of implied violence. You clearly understand the difference between violence and mere d

As the author notes, Windows 95 was remarkable for the iterative process that Microsoft’s UI folks undertook. They published an article in the ACM [1] on how they completely discarded the previous approach of designing from first principles
