Dog walks are a 3x but walks without a dog are only 2x. I don't make the rules

Both showers and public transit rides have 3x multipliers to Thinking Time. You'd think stationary bikes would be too because they're both moving and mindless but actually they're 0.5x at best. Long flights have 10x to Thinking Time but only if you're in the sweet spot of tired but not TOO tired

Here I go again. If you want small and diverse businesses to bid on government work, the RFP cannot by 48 pages with 12 appendices and 17 attachments.

If there's one thing I loved about being in a No Kings protest today, it was the feeling of solidarity giving me hope for this nation and its people. If there's a second thing, it's how all the various dogs had NO idea what was going on, but LOVED it.

No kings. More trains.

Mamdani: We need to make public transportation so good that “no matter how much money is in your pocket, you say: I’m gonna use this.”

I feel like one of the many effects of LLMs on our industry is going to be making it really clear that the coding was never the hard part.

My least popular (and most correct) view is that cars should be automatically limited to the local speed limit. Put the pedal to the floor and you still can't go over 25mph in a residential area. (15 in Manhattan btw)

this cultural tendency to lionize dudes who can write bad code truly does piss me off more than just about anything else

Hot take on government software licensing: it's not really COTS if the price isn't advertised publicly.

Decades of mechanistic talk about university degrees as if they were bundles of 'skills' and 'prep' are about to be proved completely wrong (obviously). Want to get a real boost? Do History or English.
