Software teams have two jobs: 1) produce valuable software; 2) increase, or at least sustain, their ability to do #1. Software development is unique in that ignoring #2 will rapidly destroy #1.

Anxiety tip: Next time you cringe over some embarrassing moment you had years ago try to remember other people's embarrassing moments. You can’t can you? That’s because you’re the only embarrassing human to exist, everyone else is always thinking about how cringey you are.

He wants to brag about Hotwire, and I'm not going to name drop like he did, but he drove the person who ACTUALLY BUILT (most of) IT out of the Rails community, as well as 1/3 of his team at Basecamp. This isn't politics, this is his influence on the Rails community.

So weird that "Downing Street apologised to Buckingham Palace". No people involved. Just a street apologising to a palace.

in some ways this latest COVID wave feels the most depressing, as it's genuinely hard to tell what we're even reaching for anymore. everything feels simultaneously accessible and irresponsible, and you don't feel 100% good about any choice
