Definitely true, but back in the day that was sort of the fun of it -- similar to putting up an AOL Instant Messenger away message, it was just... a blast of a funny thought to the people that you knew. Over time, that network got stale and

--- *40 minutes* Time it took Rankin to descend, due to a thunderstorm’s vertical air currents forcing him upward --- Can you imagine the sheer terror of skydiving for 40 minutes through a thunderstorm? Jeepers.

Cool project! I think there's a way to add a button to the README that turns a repo into a template -- maybe that would decrease friction further?

Mark Zuckerburg's superpower is being like Jack Sparrow at the beginning of Pirates of the Caribbean: he steps off one boat just as it's sinking onto another, and he has the humility to not really give a damn which ship he's

Interesting to read: I've always heard of Chrome and Gmail as two Google products that were the shining examples of "look at what these wacky engineers went off and built!" It seems like that notion may be a bit romanticized.

I wanted to share this post with any other engineers that have struggled with the transition from "building what you're told" as a junior engineer to "figuring out what to build" as a senior engineer. This post talk

Very cool idea! I could definitely have seen this being really useful at my last startup. A few quick thoughts: - I definitely would have loved to see some common travel filters (which I know as a programmer is easier said than done").

Just a thought: this tool looks cool, but I'd love to see a demo video of it in action as the hero item at the top of the page. Without that, it feels a little... theoretical and hand-wavy.

If I were to guess, the one of these that has by far the most impact is the Google featured snippets. There's constantly a tension between Google and online publishers about Google wanting to serve people answers quickly (with "on

In my experience, the web has bifurcated between "web applications" (owned by React) and content sites (owned by Jamstack). One dilemma I've faced is when you find yourself in the middle of those two areas and might want to d

Thanks for sharing your insight in #2: definitely an interesting view that I wouldn't have access to myself! As for #3, the same thing occurred to me with regards to the supply chain shortages during the pandemic: the highly optimized,

There's an excellent book called Gemba Kaizen that's all about kaizen and the Toyota manufacturing process that inspired a lot of the thoughts in the post. Lots of interesting parallels between manufacturing and software developme

I find this site fascinating not for the investment strategy linked but rather the great job it does in making a powerful and complex feature set accessible to its users. It does this all while managing to avoid the rut of looking like ever

A few months ago, I got to help structure an acquisition deal for our company that ultimately fell through. This post is about some of the ways I learned that employees can get a raw deal in such an acquisition. My main takeaway was “work f

The closest thing to gathering I've seen is the consistency of posting on LinkedIn with the #layoffs and #opentowork tags. I've also seen a decent amount of activity in the ex-Googler community where former Google leaders (e.g. La
