Nobody can predict what is going to happen over the next 12 months but we haven't had a real bad tech downturn since 2000 (2008 terrible for lots of other folks but nbd for tech) let me tell you what starting a company in 2000 was like.. https://twitter.com/refsrc/status/1527238287471292417

PSA: React “concurrent mode” doesn’t exist. It was proposed, but ultimately abandoned.

Instead, React 18 gives us 2 hooks for declaring low-priority updates:

1. useTransition: Render this state update when convenient

2. useDeferredValue: Render this value when convenient

I’ve experimented with many different productivity techniques. It's usually a hit or miss, but this one still works the best.

My tried & tested method of staying productive throughout the day?

The Pomodoro Technique. 🧵👇

I strongly believe that all managers in a technical area must be technically excellent.

Managers in software must write great software or it’s like being a cavalry captain who can’t ride a horse!

Everything we call civilization was invented in the last 500 generations—way too short a time for our bodies and brains to re-optimize. We're a bunch of primates in a totally unnatural environment, trying our best. Good thing to keep in mind!

I'm open-sourcing Actual.

I'm sad that I couldn't make it work as a sustainable company, but I've seen the magic of open-source before and I'm excited about what can happen here. Read more!

Seems like a good time to post this. Glad we kept this going. Might need to invest more now. https://twitter.com/echoz/status/1028821491868037121

the days of usenet, irc, the web...even email (w PGP)...were amazing. centralizing discovery and identity into corporations really damaged the internet.

I realize I'm partially to blame, and regret it.

If I gave a college graduation speech, I'd be tempted to just tell them to avoid credit card debt.

Some concluding thoughts:

One thing I would hope people take away here is that this really underscores the importance of differentiating between Omicron’s intrinsic mildness and immunity-driven mildness.

@westcoastbill I was at a lunch with Munger in 2009 where he told the whole table all the ways Tesla would fail.

Made me quite sad, but I told him I agreed with all those reasons & that we would probably die, but it was worth trying anyway.

Last week, I discovered (and reported) a critical bug (which has been fully patched) in @optimismPBC (a "layer 2 scaling solution" for Ethereum) that would have allowed an attacker to print arbitrary quantity of tokens, for which I won a $2,000,042 bounty. https://www.saurik.com/optimism.html

Lodash turns 10 this year. I'm back from burnout and, if cleaning up its 💩 of tech debt doesn't 🔥 me up, you can expect a v5.0 release in late spring. Expect more use of the standard lib/syntax, more TypeScript, and less complexity.
