Shoulder to the grindstone. There's enough grist out there.

@stubbornella @bidetofevil They’re very articulate. But also prescriptive.

@bikeshopgirlcom @BikeGillian Why not cheap weekend rentals?

@NSA_CSDirector @SwiftOnSecurity Hot bauds.

@IAPonomarenko I am reminded of the widows mite. May we all tithe like Estonians.

@Helenreflects Not a very considered answer, but the movie Ridicule shows debate at Versailles as a fashionable pursuit. Did Anglo courts have the same entertainment?

@polotek @mattkauffman Exactly. Toy apps are dreamlike. Production apps are a different beast. We all get suckered by the 5 minute screencast. The fact that no trillion dollar company can establish THE sdk is a smell.

@schmangee Don’t visit Oslo, Switzerland, Berlin or Hamburg. Hard to leave.

Five shapes of apartment buildings, each with 60 homes. Top left, a wide block with doors off a long hallway, is the most common type built today in the US.

Top center is common in Europe. Today we'll also look at a few other styles.

Which do you prefer?

@Helenreflects @alanrew This issue is endemic to all technocratic policy that relies on expertise. If the stakes are high enough, the folly of experts will eventually be seen.

@paulg @jasonblick How does Java fit into this? I rarely see a stacktrace less than 100 lines

@schmangee Shouldn’t we be more concerned with density and multi-use. Some major urban areas are cleared out at 6pm. Trying to shrink the triangle of work, sleep, socialize != mega cities. Many with soul crushing prices.

@fchollet But why doesn’t the idea have bite? Also, Finite and Infinite games is good. Doesn’t matter it’s the one book they read.

@juliaioffe Can we move on now? (To the next site, that is)

@benedictevans You can be right about the disease and wrong about the cure.

[phil c @peacads]

@benedictevans It kinda does. If it’s easy to screw up, mishandle, or misrepresent, then that thing has those properties.

@OldSchoolBoston Only once. But the idea that you could buy parakeets 30 feet away was mind blowing.

@Satyriander @kpg_kevin @OldSchoolBoston Two pay phones! And they look clean.

@alex_hallowell People whinge about London all the time. Like scale matters people.

[phil c @peacads]

@benedictevans Amen. Why didn’t someone set up a clone months ago?
