So, Web 2.0 is finally over now?

I think they designed the app first.

It looks like someone designed the app first, then Jony Ive panic-wrapped a car around it.

For a more recent pop-culture version, I'd recommend Felix Dennis https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18749286-how-to-get-rich

What a good book! I was expecting some "follow your dreams and lean into the hustle" pablum, but no. He talks pretty frankly about how the pursuit of extreme wealth, (100s of millions) which he'd succeeded at, isn't worth it even then because a single-digit amount of millions is quite enough to enjoy life, but adds that he expects readers will ignore that part and attempt to get filthy rich anyway.

Also, he later became a poet (a very good one, too, if I remember right) and early on in his life tried to be a pop singer. Feels a bit like that whole multi-decade career as founder and owner of a massive publishing empire was an odd detour for him.

Very fascinating person, and the book's definitely worth reading.


I appreciated Felix going over what he had to give up to get where he was. It let me be content with a bit less money and a bit more family.

I love this book, but its authority is somewhat undermined by the infamous Steve Jobs passage...

How's that? I am not familiar.

IIRC, he spends a few pages talking about how Steve Jobs is going to be the ruin of Apple

You could add OrbStack to the comp. table


Will do. Thanks for the suggestion!


Am I the only one who sees screen recordings of AI agents as archaic as filming airplane instruments to take measurements?


Hybris.


By now, Google is smart enough to not even index this garbage.


I wish that were true.


Search "Redix for Redis connections in Elixir". This Blog slop is second result.

Google encourages this.
