Just spoke to @vangool_it for the show. He has ADHD. He said that "the entire internet, without ad blockers [is a problem from a distraction perspective]".
This episode coming in a few weeks!

a thing I think about a lot is security advice that's basically just wrong because it's written with assumptions about corporate behavior that are not reliable.

You think normal users are stupid? Well, I'm just as stupid, but I have more tools to fuck up with. You'll be scratching your head and wondering how the hell I managed to break things *this* badly.

C is a language with many useful functions: strtod converts your string to a double, strtol converts your string to a long, and strtok converts your string to potassium
Goes doubly as a contractor. If I'm the only one with certain knowledge, something went horribly wrong.
Was in almost that situation a while back due to circumstances. Did not feel good. I want to be replaceable at any moment, as painlessly as possible.
@KPNwebcare ik heb een tijdje geleden met jullie hulp internet afgesloten, en daarbij zou het installatiepakket op een ander adres afgeleverd worden. Ik zie alleen in de bestelling alsnog het verkeerde adres (het adres van het abonnement) staan als afleveradres. Klopt dat?

I like this podcast - short episodes (around 10 minutes or so per episode, brilliant because I tend to not be able to keep my attention on long ones), interesting subject matter, and often not quite (or not at all) obvious insights. Give it a listen!

How not to do UI design. Who the fuck signed off on this? I'm a stereotypical programmer, I suck at design, and I see so many glaring issues with this shit it's not even fucking funny.
The most prominent button on the page is the one you shouldn't ever need if the app does it job.
Because nothing inspires confidence like loudly yelling HEY WE'RE TOTALLY WRONG HERE I PROMISE YOU CAN DO BETTER BY HAND, OUR MATCHING SUCKS BIG TIME
Hear hear!
Something we forget all to often: we build software for users, and for the business, not for ourselves. Codebase improvements that help neither in any way are just technical masturbation.
