Websites are taken down, cleaned and back up online. Some words are banned from official documents.

"Privileges" for the NSA is a funny one, because it is a must have.

I store it as reminder.

So dynamic-linking saves us about 11%11% of build time in incremental case.
This time dynamic-linking saves us 0.25 seconds, or about merely 5%5%.

A blazingly fast, open-source backend with type-safe REST & realtime APIs, built-in JS/ES6/TS runtime, SSR, authentication, and admin UI built on Rust, SQLite & V8.

Simplify with fewer moving parts: an easy to self-host single-executable with everything you need to focus on your mobile, web or desktop application. Sub-millisecond latencies eliminate the need for dedicated caches, no more stale or inconsistent data.

I.

Most things fail because nobody cares.

II.

Let’s start with what doesn’t work: copying success. Everyone trying to make the next Facebook creates a wasteland of social networks nobody wants.

III

Here’s the core principle: people give a shit about things that meaningfully change their lives.

IV

Solving real problems isn't enough. You also need to solve them in a way that resonates emotionally.

V.

Why didn't someone do it sooner? Because the obvious solution was previously impossible, illegal, or insane.
The sweet spot? When something just became possible, legal, or sane enough to try. That’s why timing matters more than ideas. Being too early is the same as being wrong.

VI.
Communicate why anyone should care. Focus on outcomes.

VII.

Making something people care about often means making something people already care about, just better.

VIII.

The most successful products are often worse in most ways but radically better in one way that matters.

IX.

Sometimes, making something people care about means removing things people hate.

X.

Finally, there’s the hardest truth: you have to give a shit yourself.

XI.
Hit 6/8 (from III. to X.). More is overkill. Less is self-sabotage.

making something people give a shit about doesn’t mean making something perfect. It means creating something meaningfully better in a way that touches people’s lives.

In the end, people don’t care about products, features, or specifications. They give a shit about their lives being better. Everything else is just details.

(XII.)

creating something people give a shit about isn't enough – you have to remember why they gave a shit in the first place.

Recommendation of the video

Avoid

• folders
• inline properties and tags

Use

• wikilinks
• properties
• tags

As always it depends on the needs, but using only wikilinks, properties and tags can be practical and encourage better patterns.

le site des Centres de contrôle et la prévention des maladies (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC), la principale agence fédérale en matière de protection de la santé publique, a notamment subi la suppression de nombreuses pages web, dont celles qui évoquaient les LGBT.

Suivant le partage de Sebsauvage, lord.re s'exprime sur l'état politique aux US.

J’ai constaté une dété­rio­ra­tion visible de la commu­ni­ca­tion et de la bonne colla­bo­ra­tion dès qu’on dépas­sait 4 à 6 semaines.

ou alors 2 ou 3 jours par mois consécutifs. Certaines entreprises peuvent juste donner des budgets aux équipes pour se voir.

Avoid, at all costs, arriving at a scenario where the ground-up rewrite starts to look attractive

Aim to be 90% done in 50% of the available time

Think about pathological data

Edge cases are our entire job.

There is usually a simpler way to write it

Write code to be testable

It is insufficient for code to be provably correct; it should be obviously, visibly, trivially correct

Example of playbook: https://www.gov.uk/service-manual

What can a playbook contains?

• engage with the digital team: it provides clear guidance.
• digital project lifecycle
• publishing best practices
• help understand the users
• recommends resources
• clarify policies and governance

In order to make the playbook stick, the team has to ensure:

• to make it easy to find
• keep it engaging
• present it as a resource
• share it

Documentation matters

Good documentation is more than just nice to have—it's a powerful way to spread knowledge. For development teams, clear documentation keeps everyone aligned, helps make decisions visible, and ensures no one has to reinvent the wheel when new people join. For users, it saves time. Poor documentation, on the other hand, leads to confusion, support tickets, and more work for everyone involved.

... all common and good tips. They are generics and I don't find anything actionable though.

Try writing a tax code in chat messages. You can’t. [...] That’s why we use documents

You program by writing documents instead of chatting.
