- Comment on Linus Torvalds on a ridiculous job performance metric at tech companies and the prominent figure responsible for it 5 days ago:
LOC is a terrible metric. The worst programmer I ever had work for me had the highest LOC of anyone on the team, and his code was crap that barely worked.

- Comment on Thank you, Boston 4 weeks ago:
I flew into Boston back in the ‘80s and was driving a rental car to my hotel. I get to an intersection and it’s blocked for a 10K road race. So I ask the cop diverting traffic if there was an alternate route to the hotel. He shrugs his shoulders, says he doesn’t know, and waves me on. I ended up driving around until the roads reopened.

- Comment on A ‘demoralizing' trend has computer science grads out of work — even minimum wage jobs. Are 6-figure tech careers over? 2 months ago:
I teach Software Engineering, working mostly with first-year students but also coaching the senior capstone project. This year was the first time that not all of my seniors had a job before they graduated. One got hired just two weeks ago. Unsurprisingly, incoming numbers are way down. It’s likely that at least some of those were attracted to the money aspect, but it’s still a disturbing trend after years of steady growth in numbers.

- Comment on 3 months ago:
Years ago I was in LA on business and ended up on I-5. All of a sudden traffic stopped dead. Eventually people were getting out of their cars and walking around. About a half-hour later, traffic started up again. We never saw what was responsible for the blockage. No wreckage, no obvious marks or debris on the pavement, nothing. I’m glad I live in a small city nowhere near California.
- Comment on What's going on with imgur right now? 3 months ago:
