  1. Ah, the "hidden" costs of #abstractions, because apparently, no one ever realized that making things easier could come with a downside...🤦‍♂️ Welcome to the world of #computing, where "focusing on the bigger picture" is just code for "forgetting how stuff actually works"—but hey, at least we have more #memory now to store all that ignorance! 🧠💾

  11. I like the feeling of buying and owning great products — especially #software.

    *Renting* software, on the other hand, does not give me the same warm fuzzies.

    In the following episode of the #Abstractions #podcast, at about the 18:47 mark, I explain why I eschew software rental, and I also describe alternative pricing structures that provide much better alignment of interests between software vendors and end users.

  21. We kick off the latest episode of the #Abstractions #podcast with an introduction to a great article by @judy2k about reinforcing #terminal command-line tool habits. We also delve into gaslight-driven development at SoundSlice, whereby @adrian and fellow developers decided to implement a feature that ChatGPT confabulated. We hope you enjoy the show! 🎧

  43. [#Abstractions Episode 10] « Under discreet surveillance »

    The sounds they emit are inaudible to us
    and their visibility masked from mid-day onwards.

    Yet azaleas are constantly probing their surroundings. Discretely.

    The calyx of each flower is in fact the receptacle
    of the multiple visual and sound information
    collected by their stamens and pistils.

    As evidenced by their respective shapes...

    Les sons qu'elles émettent nous sont inaudibles
    et leur visibilité masquée à compter de la mi-journée.

    Pourtant, les azalées sondent continûment leur environnement. Discrètement.

    Le calice de chaque fleur constitue en effet le réceptacle
    des multiples informations visuelles et sonores
    collectées par leurs étamines et leur pistil.

    En témoignent leurs formes respectives ...
