Make it real

Ideas are cheap. Make a prototype, sketch a CLI session, draw a wireframe. Discuss around concrete examples, not hand-waving abstractions. Don't say you did something, provide a URL that proves it.

Ship it

Nothing is real until it's being used by a real user. This doesn't mean you make a prototype in the morning and blog about it in the evening. It means you find one person you believe your product will help and try to get them to use it.

Do it with style

Windows to UNIX Command Cheat Sheet

Windows PowerShell has several transition aliases that allow UNIX and CMD users to use familiar command names in Windows PowerShell. The most common aliases are shown in the table below, along with the Windows PowerShell command behind the alias and the standard Windows PowerShell alias if one exists.

"Post-symbolic communication" in Virtual Reality

I've selected a few important passages from Jaron Lanier's 2010 book, You Are Not a Gadget (pages 123-125) that speak specifically to "post-symbolic communication" in Virtual Reality (and the inspiration: cephalopods and neoteny).

The problem is that in order to morph in virtual reality, humans must design morph-ready avatars in laborious detail in advance.

We can learn to draw and paint, or use computer graphics design software, but we cannot generate images at the speed with which we can imagine them.

Suppose we had the ability to morph at will, as fast as we can think.
