🎥 Get Duked. I liked the cute premise of these hard kids doing a challenging nature walk thing. It was a great little set of actors and it started strong. Then it just went off the rails, as they say. It tried to do too many things and make it feel like a mess and […]

BTW, in defense of Matt Mullenweg and the culture of the developer community he built over the last 20 years, for better or worse, they don't do what Bluesky did. They look for prior art and implement it and they don't deprecate, btw. They're still running the APIs we invent...

The crazy thing about Bluesky's API is they took already standardized things like links and enclosures, and after 20+ years came up with new definitions. Makes our apps more expensive to maintain, and we waste time and human wear and tear on stupid bullshit make-work. Develo...

Who Needs a Man-Month?

I wrote a (list of) regular expressions that will play a (not very good) chess game by running a 2-ply minimax search.

Comments in the classic theme

The two main business modalities are more different than you expect. When you hit PMF, it's a culture-shift to switch from one to the other.

BTW, as promised, last night's Knicks game was great. Up until the end, when the other guys took over and sadly the Knicks lost. We need a stronger bench. The starting five are great but they're not totally super-human.

Sometimes I look at this list of “slash pages” and I’m like ughkgh I love these, I should do like all of them. Then something stops me and I think I’ve figured out what it is. They seem more like blog post ideas to me than permanent (if occasionally updated) pages. For example /carry is […]

Nick Hamze has called for making WordPress themes exciting and the web weird again. “WordPress […]

My last blog post title partially inspired by walking by this sign today.

Tim Cook gives $1 million to Trump’s inauguration committee. I think this event will be a turning point in how we view the Apple CEO. Let’s start with John Gruber writing at Daring Fireball: It seems pretty obvious that it was Apple/Cook that leaked this to Axios, not Trump...

Exploring what it takes to polyfill the until-found value of the hidden attribute.

Krugman writes about social media is poisoning children's minds. I like that Krugman has resumed his blogging. This means that sometimes I agree or disagree, or have mixed opinions, but I always learn something. That's what makes a blogger good imho. I don't know if I agre...

Knicks on Friday night: A big offline day here in the mountains, the show will resume tomorrow bright and early, Murphy-willing. Enjoy tonight's Knicks game in OKC. Should be a great game. 😄
