RIP to a real one.
The Soul of a New Machine may be the best technology book written, but House was a beautifully-crafted and deeply humanist book. Funny too!
<p>I didn't realize the facebook execs Mozilla acqui-hired last year have been promoted! I was assuming they were still just heading the ads division of Mozilla, but oh boy, I fucking wish.</p><p>Now the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/leadership/#graham-mudd">former Senior VP of Marketing</a> of facebook (2008-2022, the finest years of facebook) is the CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER of the entire Mozilla.</p><p>And the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/leadership/#graham-mudd">former VP of Ads</a> in Facebook (2012-2022), is now the Senior VP of Product of Mozilla.</p><p>Let me repeat this:</p><p>The guy who used to lead the facebook team that was literally "<a target="_blank" href="https://www.business-humanrights.org/en/latest-news/meta-allegedly-targeted-ads-at-teens-based-on-their-emotional-state/">advertising to teenagers based on their emotional state</a>" is now the guy who decides the direction of Firefox as a product. But hey, let's keep giving Mozilla the benefit of the doubt uh? I'm sure these people-who-should-be-on-trial-in-the-hague are going to do great things for the community!</p>
Lovely video on the history of Creative and their sound cards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTPa6wRECw0 When digital sound was not yet a "solved" problem, it was an exciting space. Creative should have shifted to middleware in the 2000s. EAX was a genuine improvement to games but too proprietary; the PC market always eventually seeks a standard.
Be a little weirdo today....or a big one...or a medium one. Just be your awesome weird self, okay?😉
