slow day today but i had some great news on the interviewing front.

i got decorator religion at today’s talk at codesmith: https://twitter.com/swyx/status/931390964194856960

i also watched kent dodds’ jest/testing Frontend masters.

i asked a fun question on HN that took off that in retrospect was a little negative in the focus. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15718653 i think there is lots to learn about failed tech (and i do not judge). the interesting answers included:

  • itanium
  • nanotubes
  • CRISPR (!)
  • facebook platform
  • lisp
  • smartwatches
  • e-ink

also saw a lot of comments about google wave/glass, VR, blockchain.
