Anyway to sign up to an announce list? Without github integrations this would end up being another tool to divide our time across, but with github integration then I could see it solving the higher level project management issues that githu

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a ha

> In fact, Docker demands that you store all config values, dependencies, everything inside of the container itself. No it doesn't. In fact, parameterised containers are a thing that many people encourage. This is where you specify

What I would love is one of these that lets you chain your VPN. E.g. I want a 10 chain VPN proxy, here is my API keys for N servives, please distribute the VPN across these. Obviously this is a slightly different use case than just protecti

If you know anything about neurology or psychology, you'll know that there is no "objective perception". There is science, but that's about repeatability, and the complexity of geopolitics makes situations difficult to r

You can dislike a language for a number of reasons that have little to do with using it while still being meaningful. e.g. community behaviour, community style, and relative number of security flaws in products that use that language.

I don't know about you, but people that stare at me without keeping their eye movement dynamic are freaky and intense. The thing I think will be weird is that Glass is in the upper right, and looking up and right is associated with creativi

More people are injured by horse riding than MDMA. Under your regime, will you ban all risk taking including sports? How about starting a startup? That often results in elevated stress and could impact health. Let's ban that too. How about

Class A drugs actually have a range of benefits, from curing addiction(!), depression, PTSD, migraines, and inspiring people creatively. This is not for all drugs, and some also have associated risks, but they are not by nature "bad". Unfor

Taking cocaine does not imply you'll become an addict and it will control your life. Many high functioning drug users never get in trouble with drug use, but we never hear those stories. People can become alcoholics, and some people are mor

Yup, and you definitely don't want those annoying people who actually value their privacy and restriction on employer control over their lives! Drug tests are an effective filter to ensure you have a compliant work force.

Ah, I remember being called away from my new year holiday when an engineer dropped our entire database. This happened because they didn't realise they were connected to the production database (rather than their local dev instance). We were

While I also agree that it's a great idea, the challenge is that it's a complex system of hardware components. An error in one component won't necessarily show up directly associated with the component generating the error. A simple mem tes

GPUs have throttling as well. They happily burst up to the maximum clock speed, but in benchmarks that stress the GPU at max capacity for prolonged periods, one will often see the clock rate drop by as much as half to prevent overheating. .

That approach might be fine for small projects/webapps, but I stuggle to see that approach working for anything more complex/hard. Sometimes the only way to make effective progress is a full day of uninterrupted progress where you can hold

I can relate to this from working as the CTO of a company that grew too fast, and then burnt out. I like building things, and I found myself less focussed due to management and business concerns. I'm now working on other projects, with fewe
