Nothing more polarizing than posting an NYC apartment tour!

"Omg how much do you spend? My way of life is SO much better than yours. What a waste of money."

Did you buy a low-end iPad for $500 in April, 2010, when it debuted? If you had invested that money in $AAPL it would be worth about $4,000 today.

I felt spammy trying to hire people on the internet. So I’m trying a different recruiting strategy! 🧷

I bought 40 cans of SPAM from Safeway, created labels with generic recruiter copy, and put them on shelves all over the city.

Hoping the right candidate finds one and replies.

I really, really hate it when people use @channel and @here on slack. The notification comes in, and I get all excited that someone wants to talk to me, but as it turns out, no, I was just in the room when someone was shouting.

@jeffmueller Yeah, I hate to knock down another small company's idea, but it doesn't seem well thought out, and in fact runs counter to many things the IndieWeb community (and M.b) has learned. If WT.social does find a valuable solution in what they're building, I think it's going to be by accident.

I encourage anyone beguiled by Tim Berners-Lee's proposal for a "Contract with the Web" to click through and read the source. It is a thick conceptual gumbo created by committee, exactly the thing the web was not. No wonder big tech has signed onto it. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/24/opinion/world-wide-web.html

2000 should not be in that progression. That's on the Windows NT line that goes 3, 3.1, 3.5, 4, 2000. So, treating XP = 6 goes pretty well. ME was a minor upgrade to 98, so that's 5.5.

Microsoft shouldn't be seen as an example for good numbering. Leaving off the non numeric versions you get:

1, 2, 3, 3.1, 3.11, 95, 98, 2000, 7, 8, 8.1, 10...
