Exploding offers are bullshit

from Home on Erik Bernhardsson [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
I do a lot of recruiting and have given maybe 50 offers in my career. Although many companies do, I never put a deadline on any of them. Unfortunately, I've often ended up competing with other companies who do, and I feel really bad that this usually tricks younger developers...

Pickle plus mains

over a year ago
Back in February 2014, it was a cold (but dry) winter’s night and we decided to warm our hearts with some science. Our experiment was to observe the conduction of electricity through a pickle, using salt ions. We connected a pickle to the mains supply. Pickles have a strong...

I made my blog solar-powered, then things escalated

from Louwrentius [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
In 2020 I wondered if I could run my blog on solar power, being inspired by Low-tech Magazine, doing the same thing (but better)1. The answer was 'yes', but only through spring and summer. I live in an apartment complex in The Netherlands and my balcony is facing west. This...

6.170, CVS, and SVN

from Posts on Made of Bugs [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
I’m taking 6.170 Lab in Software Engineering this semester. The course sucks in various ways, but one of the most egregious, in my opinion, is that they force you to use CVS for your version control. Problem sets are distributed by the TAs importing them into your repository, and...

IKEA $50 VINDSTYRKA vs. $290 Dylos air quality monitor

from Louwrentius [alt+shift+b] in technology

a year ago
This is a brief article in which I compare the IKEA VINDSTYRKA $50 air quality monitor (PM2.5) with a $290 air quality monitor made by Dylos to see if it's any good. Context If you care about indoor air quality, you may already own a CO2 to determine if it's time to ventilate...

Febrary 6 was my last day at Spotify. In total I spent more than six years at Spotify and it was an amazing experience. I joined Spotify in Stockholm in 2008, mainly because a bunch of friends from programming competitions had joined already.

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
