The Life and Death of People and Software

  • Sandi Metz: You're Insufficiently Persuasive
    How do you get people to do what you want? Why do we fight with people when we all want the same thing?

  • Chad Fowler: Growing Old
    No one will remember your code when you die. Then, what will your legacy be? How do we leave a dent in our fellow humans?

Dope Shell Stuff

These are my favorite tools for making my terminal a nice place to work.

  • bat: cat, but with pretty syntax highlighting, git, and diff support
  • chezmoi: Sync your dotfiles using a Git repo
  • diff-so-fancy: better-looking diffs for modern terminals
  • exa: ls, but pretty by default
  • Fantasque Sans Mono: A lovely monospace font with ligatures and a friendly shape
  • fasd: navigate between project directories really quickly

NOT PLANNED ON A WHIM STIR FRY
And you couldn't bring eggs because you motorcycled to the store
PRE-PREP:
1. Go to Asian grocery with no recipe in mind and assorted leftovers
2. Buy what looks colorful and good
3. Get home and find carrots in crisper
PREP:
Pre-cook pork
