These Best Places to Work awards don't really tell me if a place is actually a good place to work. It is , however, a pretty good indicator of how strong the kool-aid is at a company.

While it's easy to point the finger at Uber given its history, we also need to be asking Apple why this isn't something that's apparent to the user.

Online amnesia seems to be a problem with the design of karma-based forums. I used frequent a London bike forum where folks were notorious for answering common questions with "UTFS" (use the fucking search). It was refreshing to b
