This stat seems pretty bad and really stark compared to other places www.pewresearch.org/religion/202...

In many countries, people see their fellow citizens as morally good
% who rate the morality and ethics of people in their country as morally good or bad. US has the highest rate (53%) saying fellow citizens are morally bad.

Us humans too often enjoy the easy path. This is just another example where the easy path feels so powerful since you can turn out so many features quickly. I hope there are enough influencers in enough organizations to steer our industry into the simpler effective path instead of the easy path.

I often see people tempted to rely on what authority they have to force “progress” for their awesome idea. There are too many reasons why this almost never works. People often forget that ideas are the easy part.

An important part of professional growth is realizing being right doesn’t matter if you can’t get people to listen to you.

It’s 9am TFT time here, and citizens are already gathering to protest Tariffs by the United States. Our plain clothes Officer Penguins are attempting to maintain calm, but unfortunately we keep losing them in the crowd.

This is a good baseline indeed. I like surveying devs as another metric. I ask them to capture how they spent their time (their last work day) based on a few buckets. These buckets are either value generating or non value generating time. I find it a valuable measurement.

What a bizarre place that Canada will become when this man becomes our prime minister. I really hope I’m wrong about him winning the next election. Should I start farming crickets in case Trudeau pulls off the comeback?

Flying home on a Sunday morning is a nice way to travel for business. I need to remember this in the future. It is an extra day away from my family but it is nice to spend a Saturday in a distant place.

I want to live in a world where authors can easily sell me their books in convenient forms, while the platform that makes it happen takes a reasonable convenience fee. Some say I am a dreamer, but I’m not the only one.

Saw @pattonoswalt.bsky.social live tonight at the comedy store. It was a good reminder that good standup comedy can be a powerful elixir. Thank you Patton.

Exited to be at a show at the world famous Comedy Store on Sunset Blvd. Hopefully it can take a little sting out of a very long week.
