"What should I measure when the CEO asks for engineering metrics?" is probably the most frequently recurring eng leadership question, and connects into a larger, somewhat nebulous topic: how should you measure engineering organizations?

If states can shield their laws from review by federal courts, then CA will use that authority to help protect lives.

We will work to create the ability for private citizens to sue anyone who manufactures, distributes, or sells an assault weapon or ghost gun kit or parts in CA.

After 10+ years of using Markdown, it finally clicked that web links usually look like rectangles (on mouse hover), so the text is in brackets. The URL, as an additional detail to what you're reading, is in parentheses. Not one issue since @gruber explained it a few months ago.
