Read these 3 pages. I post them every so often because I think it is some of the tightest, wisdom-packed writing on managing complex systems ever.
And almost every system is a complex system today, which is why cascading failures are swirling around us. researchgate.net/publication…
I'm just now realizing that I regularly watch F1, hockey, golf, and baseball. Have I become... oh no...

This is fantastic news for science and human knowledge.
BREAKING: White House issues new policy that will require, by 2026, all federally-funded research results to be freely available to public without delay, ending longstanding ability of journals to paywall results for up to 1 year. Coverage coming on @ScienceInsider.

Hey, less-experienced-than-me people. I have some hard-won advice for you. DO NOT EVER TAKE A JOB LIKE THIS. No, not even that “sure” bet. You sleep under your desk; people you’ll never meet walk away with all the money.

It’s always people who have not done the work asking you to forgive and forget.
Accountability does not work like that.
Forgiveness is a critical part of life. But forgiveness without acknowledgement of harm is just destructive for all involved.
My primary goal in life is to have one original, meaningful thought worth sharing with the world. It's not as easy as it sounds

We're hiring 2 Responsible Tech Principals (same role as me currently) at @OmidyarNetwork! There's a spectrum of experience that could make someone a great fit for this, though I personally think it would be nice to add a former engineer to the team. 😇

I'm officially an old hater when it comes to frontend. Everything is slower by default. Nothing is actually easier than it was before. Things are still buggy af despite all the linting and type systems and build steps. And it's not even fun anymore. Sorry not sorry.
I'm hoping to engage more on socials. I gave it up because it was bad for my mental health, not because I stopped caring. I think I'm in a place now where I might be able to do it and stay positive. Wish me luck ;)
I’m finally starting to climb out of this hole I dug for myself. It’s Hard. Even after realizing I had to do it, it still took me YEARS to be ok with the necessary sacrifices to make it happen.

This is what happens to white men when they constantly get heralded as "geniuses" for anything they do. They start to believe it.
