Management
The Surprising Power of Simply Asking Coworkers How They’re Doing - not that surprising
Spotify Guilds - I was looking for a refresher on the Spotify guilds, chapters and how they are managed. This is a good summary.
Maker to Manager — How We Support New Leaders - very structured transition to manager path. It is nice to see what you can do at a certain size.
Finding the steps on the individual contributor ladder - also from Skyscanner, because I was also looking into career paths ... again
Employees are feeling burned over broken work-from-home promises and corporate culture ‘BS’ as employers try to bring them back to the office - maybe promises were not a good idea in a time where nobody knew what they were facing
The Manager's Handbook: Consciousness - apparently the final chapter of this great resource. I am looking forward to the Kindle edition. The podcast was good too by the way.
Engineering
Zero-touch SaaS Bookkeeping with Stripe and Moneybird - I guess this should always be the goal. The Stripe and Moneybird APIs look nice.
More-in-one: Uptime Monitoring Is Now Available In AppSignal - another nice feature from the AppSignal gang
Technology
movfuscator - MOV is apparently Turing complete, so clearly you need doom to verify it
"The mov-only DOOM renders approximately one frame every 7 hours, so playing this version requires somewhat increased patience."
AmigaOS 3.2 for all Classic Amigas released and available - old school is the new school
Amiga PiStorm - Retro Power on a Budget - Tech Nibble [YouTube] - this is such a great toy. Maybe I dust off my A1000 and A3000 for this. With networking and a proper monitor they could be fun.
Plotting the source code "TODO" history of the most popular open source projects - but what does it mean? postgreSQL looks the most healthy to me
Ransomware Is Getting Ugly - I am a bit surprised that the police is allowed to pay a ransom
Environment
We now do more computing where there’s cleaner energy - I wonder what hat means for the capacities of data centres.
Bitcoin’s growing energy problem: ‘It’s a dirty currency’ - Yes!
New Big 5 - "Shooting with a camera, not a gun."
#99 – Leah Garcés on turning adversaries into allies to change the chicken industry [Podcast] - cool story about the fight to create better farming of animals and convince people to eat less meat
Urbanism
It’s Crash Not Accident: Road Collision Reporting Guidelines Issued - I still haven't quite figured out how this translates to German or Spanish. Amazingly I think there is only one word in German.
Taking Art to the Streets, Just Look Down - tactical urbanism through paint, with nice shots from above
How traffic signals favour cars and discourage walking - there are some bicycle traffic lights in Barcelona that have so short phases that I can't cross the road by bike without them turning red in the middle. With traffic lights for pedestrians this happens all the time.
Critics of UK low-traffic schemes told that 25,000 filters already existed - I remember lots of these in London around 2000. I even lived in a street were one side was blocked off. It was nice, except of the motorcycles taking short cuts.
Random Blocks
LEGO Lost at Sea for 24 years - this is such a great story and I love the legolostatsea project
Everyone Is Awesome: Lego to launch first LGBTQ+ set - brilliant!
Check Out What These Cyclists Packed for a Long-Distance Bike Trip - I love these top down equipment photos, especially for cyclists
Should Marmite get back in its jar? - I am just glad I stocked up on Marmite at the beginning of the pandemic. But I also want the Dynamite Chilli Marmite now.
[631] Master Lock 875/975 Decoded WITHOUT ANY TOOLS ! [YouTube] - security is hard! I got a bit lost in his channel recently. What a great hobby.
