Can we get a link directly to the project instead of this testflight page?
(I moved to Ireland from the US) There's a housing crisis in Ireland too. A 2-bed in Dublin in an alright location is 2k+. Here's rents in Dublin: https://www.daft.ie/property-for-rent/dublin-city Capital Gains in…
Oh they're only getting rid of the Origin app. Now they're forcing you to switch to the new "EA App" https://www.ea.com/ea-app which I'm sure will be worse. And switch soon, or you'll lose all your games. I'm not sure…
Similar to this, I bought a Lansky knife sharpening kit. I thought I was good at sharpening with a whetstone, but this makes a huge difference. $75 or so. https://www.lansky.com/deluxe-5-stone-system.html
He didn't mention an ad blocker. I wonder if that would change things. Especially if (like me) he's got an ad blocker in Chrome but not in Safari.
I like both the Bond and Smiley books, but I've never understood why people are so quick to directly compare the two characters. Smiley is a man of politics and intrigue, while Bond is a boots-on-the-ground assassin.…
Frontend software / design. The Design of Everyday Things, by Donald Norman. It's incredible the number of people who use the words "affordance" and "signifier" incorrectly.
Don't freeze salaries. The best people leave. The salary freeze is bad enough for morale, then the best people leave one by one and there's a morale hit for each one. Prefer layoffs.
I like to imagine an evil genie is reading the text with intent to misunderstand. (This is also my coding process.)
The Design of Everyday Things by Donald A. Norman. Now I know _why_ my kitchen appliances irritate me. Mountaineering: The Freedom of the Hills. How to navigate the landscape. And who has right-of-way on the trail. Any…
There's a great documentary about Nazare, and the crazy guy who helped develop the spot. https://www.hbo.com/100-foot-wave It's well-shot and more interesting than you'd expect. Maya Gabeira (from the article) is…
Don't take seriously any feedback you get from an interview. Unless you already trust someone involved in the process.

Nice article. I wouldn't call this approach "1x Programming." This is more about how to be a net-positive member of a dev team. As a longtime dev and recent dev manager, I hate most self-described 10x coders. I want…
Yes. Good film.
Email filters are an office superpower.
This looks great. The lack of portability was a huge negative when I was considering BPF a few months ago.
Leisure != time outside of work. If you're commuting, if you're too exhausted to get off the couch, if you're on-call and worrying about interruptions, then you're not truly at leisure.
I live in Ireland. This is a sad day. For years now I've been wondering what the Irish govt would do with BILLIONS of dollars. We could have had an Irish space program! A monorail! We could have bought Greenland!
Interesting! Would you compare Roberts' book with Boukreev's response to Into Thin Air, The Climb?
Annapurna - Maurice Herzog. One of my favorites. Rock climbing: I was very happy about all the coverage around the Dawn Wall project, with Caldwell and Jorgeson. A big part of that climb was finding ways to do it…
I've done a bit of climbing. I think it takes more bravery to accept that conditions are bad and you need to turn around, than to continue on with the rest of the group. It's not clear-cut, either. If you turn around…
I think in Pattern Recognition a character says, "More creativity goes into the marketing of products than into the products themselves." I'd love to think of it all as some kind of art project, but there are always…
If you bounce off of Consider Phlebas, try Player of Games. I think it's an easier place to start the Culture novels.
