- Reposted by 🇯🇵Carla Gaggini 🌸🏳️🌈I (finally) wrote up my thoughts on "Founder Mode" and the Brian Chesky morality tale about how he turned around Airbnb company culture. This has made it into the Silicon Valley water table; it must be dealt with. There are some good nuggets within; let's dig them out. charity.wtf/2024/12/17/f...

- Thank you @h.olysh.it for sending these precious stickers, I literally squealed when I saw the letter 🥹 And of course forever thankful to @krisnova.net for the reminder to focus on what makes you happy, in general, but especially when things are not great in your daily life. Missing you, Nóva 💔
- 🎧 AKA: 1) My obsessive playlists on repeat during long-haul flights✈️ 2) My Asian and/or BL shows fixation STs🫶🏻 3) Tamago’s song, which is religiously played in our household every single weekend since we got her, 2+ years ago🐕 4) Lots of post-rock, because it is and’ll always be my fav 🎶 genre 😌

- Reposted by 🇯🇵Carla Gaggini 🌸🏳️🌈I was originally going to call this post “What makes a programming language real?” because I saw some people picking a fight on the internet about this type of topic, yet again, and it got me thinking as to why we even broach the topic in the first place. hazelweakly.me/blog/you-hav...
