title: '"enshittification is what happens when a disney adult learns about captialism"'
commentary: "> every venture backed company has the following plan: spend a lot
of money to gain a monopoly, use the monopoly to price gouge everyone, replace
all core services with subcontractors until the company only exists to add a 5%
convenience charge on all transactions.\r\n\r\n5% of the biggest pie is always
going to be bigger than 100% of a small pie.\r\n\r\nThere will always be outliers
who aren't here to eat pie. The folks who enjoy the end-to-end practice of baking
a pie from scratch. And seeing our friends enjoy it."

title: 'Acts Not Facts weeknote #7 (Interconnected)'
commentary: "> It is insane how itchy and irritable I get when there is something
I want to get out in the world, and it is just inches away from getting there.
I always forget.\r\n> \r\n> It’s like… when something is out, whether it’s a public
demo or better in people hands, it can stop living in my head and start being
material that I work with to make the next thing.\r\n> \r\n> (This goes for things
I’m making with my own hands or making with other people.)\r\n> \r\n> And when
I’m carrying something half-complete in my imagination… it’s a weight, it’s a
drag.\r\n\r\nSo it's not just me. Phew."

title: The radiating programmer
commentary: "> Radiating information is not free; it takes time. You need to find
a balance that makes sense. I estimate I spend one or two hours per week writing
what I did or project updates. I usually leave it for the last part of my day.
It doesn’t interrupt my main focused work, and it doesn’t happen every day. It’s
also a muscle to train. The more you do it, the easier it gets.\r\n> \r\n> And
whenever it feels like a chore, I remind myself that it is a chore that lets me
spend most of my time doing what I like.\r\n\r\nI've noticed that humble people
tend to share too little information. They want to avoid the risks of appearing
arrogant. They want the work to speak for itself. \r\n\r\nThese are good motivations.
Nobody wants to work with the arrogant one. And the work should be good enough
to speak for itself.\r\n\r\nDistilling a week's worth of work down into a digestible
paragraph or sentence is a skill. It is an amplifier to the work that speaks for
itself. And the work that won't hold water in two weeks time.\r\n\r\nSummarizing
accomplishments is an extract of the raw goods. Good work can be communicated
in brief summaries. This signals that the essence of the problem being solved
was understood. Shotty work makes for disjointed summaries. The person is trying
to get to the essence of the problem for the first time in reflection.\r\n\r\nYou
hear about this all the time. A thoughtful person goes to write the git commit.
While writing about the problem and their solution they uncover a new understanding
of the problem and a clearer solution. They don't settle for first impressions
and first drafts. Their own writing is a feedback loop that improves their writing."

title: 'Deciphering Glyph :: Unsigned Commits'
commentary: "> Commits cannot meaningfully be changed to become signed retroactively.
Unlike an online website, they are part of a historical record, not an operating
program. So we cannot establish the difference in treatment by changing how unsigned
commits are treated.\r\n\r\nThinking of a website as an operating program is a
new thought for me. \"Static site generators\" shape the thinking that websites
are static. The request/response lifecycle that takes my html to your machine
is not static. It's alive!\r\n\r\n> That probably seemed like increasingly unhinged
hyperbole, and it was.\r\n\r\nThis is a great sentence. Unhinged hyperbole respects
unhinged hyperbole.\r\n\r\n> Just from a baseline utilitarian philosophical perspective,
for a given action A, all else being equal, it’s always better not to do A, because
taking an action always has some non-zero opportunity cost even if it is just
the time taken to do it. Epsilon cost and zero benefit is still a net harm.\r\n\r\nOpportunity
costs and unpredictable second and third order effects are always present. This
isn't a reason to not take action. It is a reason to truly find value in the desired
outcome of the action being taken. \r\n\r\n> What I am actually trying to point
out here is that it is useful to carefully consider how to avoid adding junk complexity
to your systems. One area where junk tends to leak in to designs and to cultures
particularly easily is in intimidating subjects like trust and safety, where it
is easy to get anxious and convince ourselves that piling on more stuff is safer
than leaving things simple.\r\n\r\nLess is more."
