And as some categories converge others change. Aesthetics can be dynamic. I thought this video recently was interesting discussing the way that modern computer animation became homogeneous to capture that "pixar" look – and subseq

Programming can be pretty intensive and hard to turn off from a brain bandwidth standpoint. I feel like sometimes when I'm not actively coding I'm still thinking through/distracted by problems from earlier in the day or week.

I find 1Password to be sort of a pain when signing up for new accounts on my iphone – the generate secure password & autofill doesn't always work for me – on the web it's great though

Seems like we'll sort of inevitably end up with a sort of cross-site verifiable identity on the internet. All content requiring some sort of verified user backing it. Generally will be interesting to see what an internet with less anon

I'm currently thinking I probably won't do a USB mic and I'll get a USB interface – probably the Focusrite Scarlett Mostly recording vocals as my main instrument is my keyboard which I usually hook up directly to my computer

Awesome thanks for the detailed response – this is really helpful. Curious if my budget went up to $400 would your recommendation change? A friend of mine had also mentioned the SM7B

My personal take is books read better when they're "read". That is, when they've been used time and again. I tried switching to Kindle, but I found that I read less.

I figure as long as it's an hour or less it's fair? I once had one that was an hour and a half, but they actually compensated me for the time (sorta feels like zirp in hindsight tbh)

We could make things easier by keeping timezones consistent – the fact that they move is what makes things hard.

I guess the issue with allowing voluntary departures is that you could lose numbers of engineers in vital functions. Also I imagine there tends to be a bias towards your most confident engineers leaving since they know they'll have the

This is a bit of a less traditional way to learn, but I'm big on learning from chords. Find a song you love on Ultimate Guitar Tabs and learn to play the chords – play them in different inversions and experiment with tweaks (adding a
