@fatih any good baklava house in Turkey that ships to US these days? seems like gourmeturca.com stopped making it

@sebgoa Google led me to that repo just a few minutes back 😃, seems like a good fit for a few use-cases at work

@sam_alba Finding this pretty useful pragprog.com/titles/jsrw/ef…

Any book to recommend about remote work for distributed teams? In particular: looking for advice and tips for helping people to self-organize, and that can be implemented across the team.

@KawtarNajib any chance the paperback would show up on amazon.com soon?

I am reviewing a paper right now (couldn’t work on it yesterday afternoon because of the weather 🥵) and I don’t know why I’m happy to see the author(s) quoting my book ‘Spatialized Islamophobia’ 💕 Can’t wait to see the paperback version available for greater access 🤩

@FaisalH_UK Good reminders, here is a classic on the topic amazon.com/How-Read-Book-…

A list of things I've come to realise when reading books: 1) accept the fact that you won't commit everything in the book to memory. That's not the purpose. You should, however, focus on the main arguments of the book.

@natehunzaker roundrockdonuts.com if you are in north Austin

@hartsock did you try nextjs? I picked up react again after a longtime and nextjs felt amazing

I just did some react programming and it was a lot better than what we used to do 20+ years ago. But, I suppose you probably knew that.

@ameir amen to that! a farewell tour for exploitative capitalism

My fervent hope: hedge funds are just the first to fall in the lower/middle class not putting up with the looting of our economy by the 1%.

@Ash_Ali Self Actualization ?

Talent + teachability + practice = ?

@hartsock 👍

@iansari Mind if I use that term in a paper?

As you get a feel for a problem domain, you start to see structures and patterns in both data and algorithms. You can intuit that there's a repeating pattern in a computation and see a data structure can simplify it. What is that called?

@sammyduhhh New app ?

@ameir جزاك اللهُ خيرًا

I released the first version of Guidance on the iPhone back in 2008 (only 2 months after the App Store went live). It has been continuously updated for 12 years now. Pretty good bargain for a few bucks 🙂

@fatih made fresh in the kitchen, i believe the husband n wife duo are from egypt, great variety of baklawa too

@iansari Is it fresh or frozen like the one sold in Trader Joe’s?

Tried the Kunefe from Trader Joe’s today. I give it a 6/10. Cheese was too salty, the ones in Turkey are made from unsalted cheese. My wife said “Nefis körler” in Turkish which describes it perfectly.

@fatih If you are near El Cerrito/Richmond anytime, the best fresh one I’ve had is at this place yelp.com/biz/palm-halal…

@AntoineGrondin Yeah the ones here are not worth it (yet). We need to have it in a proper place 😅

@AhmadibnRachid Arabic in software is a valuable skill.. DM ?

How do I sell a year off from my career to learn Arabic in Lebanon to potential employers?
