I don’t follow the justification of the general statement you put first with then Basecamp specific customer’s name list issue. Basecamp were wrong in how they handled it, but I think the general point still has its merit: there is too much

The point is that if you only need to join and aggregate data it's easier and more efficient to do it directly in SQL. Also in production or when your database doesn't fit in memory the idea is to first use SQL to generate an opti

That’s not terrifying, that’s awesome. Economists were saying decades ago that near the year 2000 we shouldn’t working much because of the gains of productivity. We would be free while everything would be automated. But instead we have bill

My point is that market participants seems to not care about what a stock intrinsically is when they choose one to buy (like also voting and governance), they just care about the price of that stock.

This is my sentiment too. People seems to give the market far more importance than what it is in reality: an exchange for second-hand stocks, with money just circling that can never touch the company and the economy. And they also forget th

Touch type was really life changing for me. Also switching from French Azerty to Qwerty. It's not about WPM but about staying in the flow, I feel directly interfaced with the machine. It's a pity to watch colleagues still stoping,

I think that music defining one's identity and their lifestyle has kind of gone out of style. I just remember the late 00's/early 10's as crazy on judging people on what they listen (or they clothes, like Vice Do and Don

There is nothing elitist, that's the point, I'm past defining myself and judging people through music taste.

12 floors is huge. Nearly every building in Paris is 6 floors and it is already at near the maximum density humanly acceptable in my opinion. There will never be enough supply in some place, especially with speculation and foreign investors

I do mostly not too sophisticated web apps and binary search and minimum edit distance do come up regularly. I agree you don't have to remember the implementation details, but you have to know they exist and which problems they solve.
