I don’t understand at all what this is actually about or what’s happening yet again, but I’ll look around the room, nodding politely.

We begin this meeting as we do every meeting with a recounting of every grievance we've ever had throughout all of time... Let us bow our heads.

this is a project made with love for the web, friends, and reiselust. i'm excited to share it with you.

Hello, friends! After 10(!) years of #AdventOfCode, I've made some changes to preserve my sanity: there will be 12 days of puzzles each December (still starting Dec 1) and there is no longer a global leaderboard. Read more:

Eli Pariser wrote The Filter Bubble in 2011.

Bitte: Hört's auf mit dem Scheixx. Muss es leider so deutlich sagen. Es ist ein Irrglaube, dass eine zerschlagene #BlaueSeite euch die Kunden in Scharen zutreiben wird. Das ist ein sinnloser Krieg, der uns allen schadet. Die blaue Seite ist wichtig - auch für die Demokratie 👇

They’re scrubbing every sign of decency from the record. Anything that helps the public must be erased, denied, forgotten. Compassion, above all, is to be rubbed out.

Moving on from 18F. — ethanmarcotte.com I had a wonderful job, until I didn’t. This is about what happened—and what is happening.

It happened again: update 6 lines of CSS in an older website project == wrestle with Node, nvm, outdated package versions, Gulp, gulp-uglify, gulp-terser, and other stuff just to deploy this tiny change.

All that over-engineered short-term magic is so wildly inefficient in the long term. 😂
