Depending on the sensitivity of your project or for compliance purposes, background checks might be necessary. The efficacy of doing this with global employees is questionable at best. That said it is possible to design siloed systems that

I look at No-Code the same way I look at Canva — one can create powerful designs in Canva that were once the exclusive domain of expert photoshop/illustrator designers. It does not replace them but reduces the barriers to entry for oth

I used to believe in the absoluteness of freedom of speech, especially with living in the United States, and that any attempts to regulate free speech were the slippery slope to regulating speech itself. However after witnessing firsthand,

I had the same exact issue but was exacerbated by cycling unfortunately. If you do get into cycling which is a great post burnout stress reliever, I highly recommend a bike fitting - it’ll make cycling so much more enjoyable and avoid furth

Looks like some de-orbit in months! There must be a quite a lot of calibration/testing going on and I can’t imagine how expensive this endeavor must be. I am curious about the failure rate of these satellites at that orbit.

I love techno / house music. I’ve been unable to shake it since I caught the bug many many years ago in Kenya. It came as a pleasant surprise and shock to meet Carl Craig at thanksgiving some years back. My wife neglected to mention he

The context in which "Chinese Virus" or "Kung Flu" (by the same person) was used is very telling for the message they're trying to send. The same person is also well known for other slurs. Additionally it was used a

In the past I always rolled my (our) own auth but in recent years, it is so much easier to offload this to another system for so many reasons including just being more secure (policies, MFA, oauth2 pkce etc). I've used AWS Cognito whic

We're also waking up to the fact that free speech is an incredibly difficult ideal to uphold. Hate speech, fake speech, etc are testing the limits. Other ideals like religion are much easier to uphold in a mostly secular society until

Free speech is an incredibly difficult ideal to uphold and I think it is unfair for governments to delegate that responsibility to tech companies.

As an owner of a small business, Facebook's point about small businesses is not inconsequential. Targeted advertising does reduce the cost of advertising pretty significantly for any small business or startup. Without it we're lef

In the old coastal town of Lamu, Kenya that is inundated by donkeys, you get a rough idea of what a town full of horses and fish smells like. The air is filled with an almost oppressive smell of poop and fish. It is unquestionably unpleasan

Jon Meachum boils this down to two statistics in The Soul of America... "Only 17 percent of Americans trust the government (down from 77 percent in 1955), and average household income is $58,000, some $70,000 less than what a family of
