Thinks a lot about #AI. Writes some of it down. Occasionally consults for companies that know they need to use their data better but don't know how.

@erenbali It’s a power user feature which complicates an otherwise simple interaction for regular users. It also gets the phone closer to cannibalising sales of other product lines if people are doing more and more on the phone that they otherwise would’ve done on a laptop/desktop

Great PM interview question: Note: If I ran product at Apple I’d not build this feature either and it’s not because nobody has brought it up nor we don’t have enough resources.

Why doesn’t iPhone have a copy history? Like I copied something 5 minutes ago. Now I need to copy something else but I still need the first thing too. So now I have to go back, find it, and re-copy it. Why can’t I just tap somewhere and see everything I’ve copied recently?

@sunbains I think the fascination with Docker is that you can’t just login and do what you want, so it’s easier to replicate instances and avoid “works over here” bugs. Probably overkill for a homelab, sure, but pretty useful for ‘production’ systems

I don't understand the fascination with Docker, I've removed all Docker from my homelab and switched to VMs. Life is so much easier. Just login and do what I want.

@nityasnotes Just before Black Friday, our ad managers were made redundant. I built an engine that auto-managed 100M ads at ~1M ops/hr, bypassing Google’s rate limits with a rotating pool of accounts. Been optimising the crap out of systems ever since.

@helloitsolly It really grinds my gears that by paying for Gmail, you pay for everything else anyway - so just cost duplication. If you can realistically get away from Gmail then it's effectively problem solved.

Best alternative to Google Workspace? I'm thinking Gmail + Zoom + Notion?

@cmuratori @htmx_org Django is Drupal for reformed users of Joomla! who hate WordPress and can no longer run their pirated copy of Dreamweaver.

@GergelyOrosz As an on-shore engineer working with an off-shore team, I once had to sit on screenshare and tell them which buttons to click to deploy something because their contract said I couldn't touch it. So *maybe* 10x lines of code but 0.1x actually getting stuff done

Remember when in the late 90s / early 2000s someone came up with a way to hire 10 developers for the same price as your current devs. Same competence level. Same output per dev. It should have led to 10x the output. It was called “offshoring.” It’s NOT what happened…

I am with the millennials on this one. If you call me, uninvited, you should announce your intentions before forcing me to say anything. A fresh phone hell in the office
