You’ve been using a note-taking app for three years. You paid for it, you organized your entire work life inside it, and now a larger company has acquired it. The announcement email arrives with words like “exciting news” and “better together.” Six months later, the app is sunsetted, your export window closes, and you lose a chunk of your professional memory. This isn’t a hypothetical. It’s a pattern that has played out with apps like Sparrow (acquired by Google in 2012, abandoned shortly aft... Read more ›

AI owns the future. Recently, the most voracious reader on […] Read more ›

Most developers treat the temperature parameter like a volume knob: turn it up for creative writing, turn it down for factual summaries. This mental model is wrong in ways that matter in production. Temperature doesn’t add randomness on top of the model’s output. It transforms the probability distribution that the model samples from, and that transformation is nonlinear, meaning small changes at the extremes have outsized effects. Understanding what’s actually happening explains a lot of othe... Read more ›
The meeting you canceled this morning did more useful work than the one you attended. That’s not a paradox. It’s what happens when you stop confusing presence with progress. Meetings have a peculiar status in knowledge work: they feel like output. You were there. You talked. Things were discussed. But activity is not the same thing as work, and the feeling of productivity is not productivity. The canceled meeting, by contrast, gave back something finite and irreplaceable: uninterrupted time. ... Read more ›
The simple version Asynchronous communication means you don’t need the other person present when you send a message. Distributed teams figured out this constraint is actually a feature, not a bug. Why the open office got focus backwards The open office was sold on collaboration. What it delivered was interruption with better acoustics. Benched seating and no walls didn’t make ideas flow faster. It made people put on headphones and pretend they were somewhere else. The underlying assumption wa... Read more ›
