This is nice that they aren't selling/boosting political ads (though apparently there's no solution for buying bot armies). However I feel that the root of the problem remains unaddressed- a small group of private companies w

Closest to me (in Austin, TX) is the massive Carrizozo Lava Flow in NM. I've actually been there via the Valley of Fires State Park. It's an amazing place, and seems to be usually empty- definitely worth a visit if you're in

For a long time I fought with a family member using this exact same argument. Eventually, I realized that his only truly happy state is when he is wrapped up and engaged in his work, and even a little stressed by it. I learned the lesson w

Ever since I read the A Song of Ice and Fire books on my phone from plain text files I acquired (don't ask me how) on a reader app, paper books feel like a much more inferior experience. On my phone, I can control the text size, the fo

I once worked on a team that specialized in very long littanies of code review comments... but they were able to bake this into their culture in fundamental ways such that it ended up being one of the most positive experiences in my softwar

Hand signals are commonly used in baseball to surreptitiously communicate intent to teammates without giving away your strategy to opponents. I think what GP was getting at is that this technology could be used to automate the reading of ha

I think an important qualifying question is: how does your team/company deal with failures? Is there some other carrot/stick that incentivizes developers to behave this way? There's certainly a rational argument to be made th

The Second Law of Thermodynamics is eventually right in the grander sense, I guess, but conditions for order to emerge from more chaotic circumstances are everywhere, even if order is temporary in the eternal sense. Stars form out of nebula

Your answer makes me assume you are well-fed, educated, and housed (you are of course well connected, since you commented on here). From an individualist perspective, anyone without those things, but who is connected at least a little will

Parts 1 and 2 are also great reads, as they go into the relationship between the changer and the waiters. It's especially challenging to communicate effectively when the waiter is not a developer. The language of structure vs. behavior

Even if weren't possible now, it may be possible in the future because Slack (in practice) owns and controls that data without any oversight from you. Anything you say might be deleted after a while, or might be held indefinitely.

Yes, it enabled them to not only fail fast, but to fail and live to tell the tale! Much talent and knowledge was lost in the people that died trying to fly before them. It's also amazing to read about the many pilots who died trying to

Yeah a lot of the 90s/early 2000s OOP stuff I learned in school seemed to always result in really tightly coupled systems and bespoke webs of tests and fixtures that strung along weird dependency chains in unwieldy spaghetti piles that
