FWIW, the old copy was from an actual print run of ~10,000 copies per print run. The new copy was made using print on demand copy where they print one copy at a time. With the difference in quality, I would try to find an old copy on eBay too!

I have a confession: The idea for Basecamp wasn’t eating me alive inside. It was just something we needed, that we knew how to build, and then other people asked if they could use it too 🤷♂️

I need everyone in tech and especially in tech media to stop misleadingly and credulously calling machine learning technology "AI". Nobody has invented AI. Nothing on the market is AI. Not Siri, not Watson, not anything. It does not exist.

My takeaway on the Fred/Donald Trump tax fraud/ real eatate deep dive-
Do you realize how BAD you have to be at business to inherit that portfolio in NEW YORK CITY many years ago and NOT be worth $10bn today?

Are you about to open-source a private repository?
Do you want to squash all history into a single commit before making the code public?
This one-liner takes care of it:
git reset $(git commit-tree HEAD^{tree} -m 'Initial commit')

Do you know the JVM's definition of a server class machine? It's >=2 CPUs and >=2GB RAM. You can override with -XX:{Always|Never}ActAsServerClassMachine #optimizingjava #java #jvm

So dramatic! Dude from the weather channel bracing for his life, as 2 dudes just stroll past. #HurricaneFlorence

This @weatherchannel visualization of storm surge is an amazing and sobering use of technology to show what hurricanes like Florence can do

Straight chills. This is one of the greatest ads I’ve seen.
