No doubt inspired by George Gamow's Mr.Tompkins in Wonderland (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr_Tompkins). That was recommended reading for entering Physics undergrads when I did my degree.
I am surprised it has taken the Automattic board so long, just don't understand that.
This is the kind of product the make all out lives better. I mean the pure entertainment value it will bring being able to watch eager Apple fan bois new iPhone Duo screen crack, or the hinges start grinding, or ...
Ha. For quite a while it was very small team and had to be for that kind of brain surgery, I have no idea how large it finally grew. Founders Mendel Rosenblum and Ed Bugnion in the early days. I remember when we hired…
And I know that sounds like victim blaming. Anybody stuck in this situation has my empathy. But I just don't know how to get it across to some company execs/leaders that they have been needing to get their act together…
You are hallucinating and don't have any clue what you are talking about (VMware employee #10/11 -- I lost count, First Director of PM at VMware). VMwware sure as hell did not invent the hypervisor, and we were damn…
Leaving VMware just got harder? What? NO! It just became more obvious that you've failed if you are still stuck there. (VMware employee #10/11 -- I lost count. First Director of PM).
Dan Ariely is well past the point that he needs to not be a faculty member at Duke University. Data Coda do a fantastic job ferreting out academic fraud. With these fraudulent behavioral science experiments like this…

I was working with a team pitching a new marketing database system to Discover Card decades ago. When we were first shown around their HQ which was a kind of hybrid open floor plan with lots of cubicles there was a…
I want to buy Cody Morelock a fancy ham sandwich.
I occasionally find myself longing for talk(1) to actually work on Macs.
Looks very interesting, love to see the innovation/effort to go beyond the usual. What would be great for me is a version with Mac/vt-100 style number pad. Even mechanical keyboards that claim to be Mac focused largely…
So with all the money raised, it's telling me there is a chance of a home-lab Oxide rack :-) (Congrats guys)
It’s the Apple Watch Edsel of cars.
Rush of Australians to the comments section.
Hand reaches over and I lovingly pat the HP-67 sitting on my desk.
I'm Australian, I didn't finish the stupid test.
ACID, so let’s see the Jepsen tests.
Horizon Worlds was always going to be a disaster. Complete crazy goals. An embarrassing mess of dopey looking legless avatars, then trying to force Meta employees to use it (everybody I knew there hated it). At this…
Hopefully some day somebody will build a Tardis and travel back in time and eliminate the BBC morons who allowed all this destruction.
Good. I'll take Gary Tan and his demonstrated efforts to clean up a corrupt dysfunctional San Francisco over any opponent. Oh yes and fuck the Nimbys.
