Programming is Forgetting: Toward a New Hacker Ethic - Allison Parrish | Open Transcripts
But, the tenets and the effects of the hacker ethic deserve to be reexamined. In fact the past few years have been replete with critiques of hacker culture, especially as hacker culture has sort of evolved into the tech industry. And I know that many of us have taken those critiques to heart, and in some sense I see my own process of growing up and becoming an adult as being the process of recognizing the flaws in this ethic, and its shortcomings, and becoming disillusioned with it.Wed Sep 18 09:17:33 2019 - permalink -- http://opentranscripts.org/transcript/programming-forgetting-new-hacker-ethic/

Constellations from Around the World
Two weeks ago I shared a map of all the stars you can see from Earth, alongside the Western constellations. But the Western constellations are only one of many patterns of stars invented by cultures around the world. This week’s map illustrates the animals, people, and objects imagined in the sky by more than 30 different civilizations.Thu Aug 8 10:51:41 2019 - permalink -
To make this map I used data from Stellarium, an open-source planetarium software that includes constellations from ancient Dakota, Hawaiian, and Mongolian cultures, among many others. Some of my favorite constellations were the Stars of Water, Rabbit Tracks, and the Hippopotamus, and I also really liked the star names The Oath Star, Lady of Life, and The Hand of the Mouse.- http://tabletopwhale.com/2019/07/29/the-world-constellations.html

You fired your top talent. I hope you’re happy. – Startups & Venture Capital
Instead of the article being a story about how they stopped this man’s descent into burnout via intervention, outstanding teamwork, and competent management, something that IT, Infosec, and Developers REALLY need to hear, they decided to focus on the toxic environment and problems in which seemed to stem from Rick. Instead of tackling the root cause of the issue (hey man, whats eating you?), they opted for the quick and easy fix (Hey Rick, GTFO!). Par for the course, as far as I can tell.Wed Oct 18 15:03:30 2017 - permalink -- https://medium.com/@deusexmachina667/you-fired-your-top-talent-i-hope-youre-happy-cf57c41183dd
