March 2023 they sold 20M Quests. Half as many as PS5. That counts as “taken off” in my book.

Can’t believe this has to be explained, but a Journal is almost by definition something that you want to keep forever. Do you want to lock yourself into Apple devices forever? Have you ever heard of Nokia?

No export! This should raise all the red flags.

One week in NL and I’m wondering what we’re even doing over here.

Building abstractions and tools to reduce busy-work has been the goal of computer science since the moment we created assembly. The difficulty lies in finding methods that provide enough value for enough use-cases to outweigh the cost of learning, documenting, and maintaining them. Finding a solution that works for your narrow use-case is easy - every overly eager junior has done it. However, building solutions that truly advance CS takes time, effort, and many, many failures. I don’t mean to discourage you, but always be aware of the cost of your abstraction. Sometimes, the busy work is actually better.
