We're never getting UBI. See the latest interview with the Palantir CEO where he talks about white collar workers having to take more hands-on jobs that they may not feel as satisfied with. IE - tending their manors and compounds. RIP

My mom used to play Sudoku as part of her recommended therapy to stave off cognitive decline. Now she just plays solitaire on the iPad for hours on end, which I know isn't burning any new neural pathways. I'm afraid my inherent la

Enjoying something and getting satisfaction out of it are two different things. I don't enjoy the act of coding. But I enjoy the feeling when I figure something out. I also think that having to solve novel puzzles as part of my job hel

I'm banned from Amazon KDP publishing for life because a fraud detection bot hallucinated that my e-book was plagiarizing my paperback (it didn't realize they're the same book). A bunch of email appeals that I'm pretty s

I don't understand the economics behind bank branches. Some of the best real estate by me is taken up by giant bank branches that are always mostly empty with a few bored employees inside. And they open new ones all the time. So it&#x2

2 spaces ftmfw. I want to see as much on the screen as possible. Horizontal scrolling is bad. Who still uses 8? Isn't that like a COBOL thing?

I got dinged on my Netflix take home 10 years ago because I used the DOM to store state instead of implementing a shadow DOM. Sure, let me just whip that right up.

The other problem is that documentation is always out of date, and one wrong answer can waste more time than 10 "I don't knows".

One trick for avoiding this is to use artifacts in the PoC that no self-respecting developer would ever allow in production. I use html tables in PoCs because front-end devs hate them - with old-school properties like cellpadding that I kno
