Just put together a fully-reactive web app with 200 lines of JavaScript, 200 lines of Clojure, and Idiomorph. My mind is blown.

Planning to apply this to Bits.

This week marks the anniversary of the birth of a childhood friend who chose to end his life not long after dropping out of university.

This time every year, I think about how cruel the world can seem and how final that decision is.

He was brilliant, witty, and loved by many. Unfortunately, he wasn't good enough for himself.

RIP, dude.

The introduction of the company exculpates its wielder, diminishing responsibility.

One can do what’s in the best interest of the company. One can put the company before its customers, employees, and even sometimes oneself.

The company is not equivalent to that team, but it benefits from the same social pressures we have evolved to survive.

I’ve given up on the “they”/“them”
experiment after a deeply confusing exchange with a small group.

While a masculine banana doesn’t help me identify, pronouns in a group where gender identity is established, does.

“He said this, she replied that” is infinitely more useful than “they said this, they replied that”.

Of course, one could argue use of an individual’s name is even more specific, and of significantly greater utility.
