There were some spectacular systems failures in 2020 that earned reminders. I am of the mind that this document is undertaught.

I believe we have witnessed the passing of a truly great human being, born into power within a system that is completely unjust. She could have disrupted her society, but instead she did her best to maintain the culture while helping as man

Weird. We started building a Mille Bornes clone game at work last week based on a particular data problem we are facing. This game is great. Practice yelling in French.

i appreciate it. I would never touch a .0 release of a new version of SQLite. No shame against them or their fantastic quality--it's just that I have lived through literal decades of watching minor database bugs shatter data value and

I am majority Apple eco system, but I type this on a PC. 1Password's seemless updates among Mac/iOS/Win is the only reason I have stayed.

This is a case where an email from mod zero to security@crowdstrike.com should have been enough to get the SOC to read and route the vuln to the product team and get a fix implemented. NDA? HackerOne? Personal Information with Identity and

Clownish of CrowdStrike. Take your vulnerability and address it.

Apple Messages encryption is looking pretty good right now. Let's hope they hold the line on CSAM.

I claim that starting teacher salaries have nothing to do with seniority--they are the universal starting salaries for a district. They are too low.

Are you a teacher in Boston? How many years teaching and how much education above a bachelor's degree does it take you to get to $100,000? My experience is that the grids have $100,000 sitting out there like a Cadillac, but 99% of teac

I don't know of any. I wonder if the German gap in unconscious bias between female executives and female entrepreneurs holds true in the US.

Which is deeply interesting to people who want to run Asahi Linux on an M2. I found the data compelling--M2 silicon under Linux is generally competitive against contemporary strong x86 laptops, but if you are sensitive about the performance

Hm. Somewhere around here I have a Midi Fighter-Twister that I would now like to put into service as a rotary encoder unit for general inputs. https://store.djtechtools.com/collections/midi-fighters-midi...

Yup. Facebook ads were evil. And now that wiener-dog ramp guy can't spend pennies to buy millions of impressions on cross-app-accessed data, he has to be smarter and work harder to get his ad dollars in the right place. This remains a

Charlie Wood really knocked this article out of the park--a fantastic telling of yet-another set of relationships and developments in physics in the past few decades. I'm most excited about the researchers' 100-kelvins-optimism on

When you start seeing them on vinyl-wrapped van conversions next year, you will still say "Yup, still looks like shitty DeviantArt photoshops when writ large." But it can still eliminate the livelihoods of a great many commercial

0. Email is a method for putting work onto others, or for receiving work from others. Limit the amount of work you consume from email to the minimum amount necessitated by your manager. Corollary: If your manager necessitates that you consu

A second simulator for exhaust systems would be appealing. Perhaps he will figure it out himself, or re-open source the existing simulation once he figures out how to get the credit/compensation he deserves.

They both should be. It's like shipping a set of scissors in a container that requires scissors to open.

Agreed. Further, what, precisely, is the paradox? The unfounded assertion that quality exists only in absence of compensation?
