The most important part of a parent's job is teaching your kids basic, timeless life skills: reading, riding a bike, swimming, eating healthy food, being careful when clicking links in email, and thinking critically about the sociopolitical context of information on social media.
How do you map out an ocean voyage without a map? Here’s an extremely cool example of a stick chart used by the Indigenous people of the Marshall Islands. Shells are islands & threads are the direction of prevailing ocean waves & currents. What a neat representation.

Software companies aren't made of code. They're made of processes that produce and maintain code. And the foremost component of these processes are people. The code is just a by-product. More of a liability than an asset.
y’all can go ahead and put shower install on the list of projects I will never again attempt to DIY
there should be a 'programming game' where instead of a simplified toy assembly language, you get simplified toy system calls along the lines of open(2) and read(2) and write(2) and ioctl(2) and you have to arrange them in various ways to do cool I/O stuff
Zuckerberg’s metaverse is best understood not as a coherent technological project, but as a vague and self-destructive longing for a new shiny internet that is somehow different from one he, personally, broke. We’re watching a man without imagination desperately try to buy some.
I dont know Elon Musk and, tbh, I could care less who owns twitter. But I will say that if this is true, I hope he and his people take this very seriously because this is scary AF. So many damn unfit people saying hate speech is free speech.
Elon Musk's Twitter takeover sparked a surge in the use of the N-word on the social media platform. A social media research group told The Washington Post the use of the slur increased by nearly 500%.
@seanjtaylor Have you considered talking about music with humans? This is a very old and powerful technique. 😉
NAS + Tailscale + FTP = SERVERS ARE BACK BABY!
We’re hiring a designer in London!
By 2025, 50,000+ businesses in UK and the EU are going to have to report on their carbon footprint and reduction plan. It’s either going to be a massive force in decarbonising the economy, or squandered on useless greenwashing.
I hope I’ll be wrong, and I’ll admit if I am, but I think twitter’s trajectory over the next two years will be much worse than the previous two (less user growth, fewer feature launches)
i have no idea what it means but thought it was interesting
which would be kind of funny if it also didn’t spill over into, y’know, giving a platform to harassment and hate, helping the global spread of fascism, and just generally making the world worse
Elon Musk wants to run a thriving, profitable social network with little content moderation, a thing that’s literally impossible, unleashing a world of hurt on himself. A $44 billion self-own. theverge.com/2022/10/28/234…
As an industry we tend to favor quick wins, large returns, and winner take all, ideally accompanied with significant accolades. None of that is well adapted to the problems we're facing on climate.
I personally find Amazon to be terrible for “find the best product for X” these days. Somebody should build a pure product discovery app on top that’s just optimized for recreating Amazon’s UI from 10 years ago & collecting affiliate revenue.
Amazon now makes more money from advertising than it does from Prime and other subscriptions
We spend most of our time building things for writers at Sudowrite…but we did a two day hackathon building something for readers this week and it's MY NEW FAVORITE THING.
