Paul Buchheit, Gmail’s Architect: The Full Transcript
paul buchheit on the advent of gmail, insurgents vs. gatekeepers, the future of san francisco, ai,
An insurgent is never going to be successful working for gatekeepers, because from the gatekeeper perspective, the person just lacks maturity. They're doing these things that are obviously risky. That's the nature of throwing bombs: you don't exactly know what's going to happen.
Famously, we had one line of JavaScript in the entire product, which was when you go to the homepage, there was one snippet of JavaScript that would put the focus in the search box. That was the only JavaScript at Google. So Google had this kind of anti-JavaScript thing, that was also partially technical snobbery. One of the senior technical people said, “You can never scale anything in JavaScript, it’s basically just shit, the project will just turn to garbage.” And actually Eric Schmidt even said, “Oh yeah, my friend at some other big company tried this, it doesn't work.” There was a lot of ‘This has been done before, you just don't know why it can't work.’
Gatekeepers are one hundred percent anchored to stopping bad things from happening, and they have no concept that when you stop bad things from happening, you are inherently stopping good things from happening as well. You can't ever deliver something that's 100 percent good. If you deliver 80 percent good, that's pretty good. But if you try to go for 100% — if you try to be perfect — what you get is nothing. Innovation is inherently not clean.

Question about grovemade desk mats
It's just wool felt, cutting it would be fine. You just lose out on the rounded corners.

The Modern Guide For Making CSS Shapes — Smashing Magazine
I get asked this question often, and my answer is always the same: Use SVG if you can! I have nothing against SVG. It’s just another approach for creating shapes using another syntax with another set of considerations. If SVG was my expertise, then I would be writing about that instead!
Hat Stretchers | The Fedora Lounge
I'm guessing I'm not totally alone when I say my head shape doesn't easily fit into the standard oval hat block shape used for most hats.
I have a few of those relatively inexpensive hat stretchers (Hat-jacks) that they sell at just about every good hat store. The first time I used one I was really happy to have found a tool that could help me relieve the front-to-back pressure I get with nearly all hats.
I initially shaped my hat-jacks in a way that I thought was more closely aligned with the actual shape of my head. After using them on multiple hats for more than a year, I was seeing some shortcomings with the design.

Collaborators needed for bring full OpenAI support to Perl
Thus, that module was deprecated in favor of Nelson's OpenAPI::Client::OpenAI module. Throw the 13K+ lines OpenAPI spec for OpenAI at it and it just works. Further, the module is pretty much a single Perl class rather than a bunch of hand-crafted code.
CPAN authors know it can be hard to keep modules up-to-date (mea culpa, mea culpa!) and this module is no exception. I need this module so I offered to collaborate and created a PR to update it to version 2.0.0 of the OpenAI spec. It now passes all the tests (for those wondering, you need an OpenAI key and it costs $0.04 USD to run the test suite).
In trying to build a Whisper pipeline for that, I found that I couldn't. There was a PR for Whisper support for the older module, but for the newer one, I can't figure out how to get it to issue a request with multipart/form-data support. I've noted the issue in the PR.
