In my last post I introduced the new CN.invokeWithoutBlocking() method as a means of ensuring that your UI construction code doesn’t run into any “blocking” that could negatively affect user experience. In cases where you need to perform a network request to help build your UI, I offered some recommendations for moving blocking code out of the critical paths. One recommended pattern was to insert placeholder content into your components, wh..

It is a universally acknowledged truth that remembering your passwords is a bad idea. The modern Internet user will inevitably be required to register for many services, and websites, and inventing a new password for each one will quickly overwhelm him or her. The burden of memorizing one’s passwords is too great to bear. Unless, of course, we grant that passwords may be reused—that we shall never do. Once we are satisfied that keeping ....

Last year I had the opportunity to watch Cat Swetel’s presentation The Development Metrics You Should Use (but Don’t). The information that could be gleaned from just tracking the start and finish date of work items was eye opening. If you’re using an issue tracker this information is probably already (perhaps with some light data […]

A few days late, again, but here it is: First Crack’s release notes for November, 2019. Again in October, like in September , I spent most of my dev time on an Instapaper-like read later service. I use it every day, and plan to release it. I did get a couple things done, though; once again, I did not neglect First Crack entirely. Permalink.

Note : Code Cat watches disapprovingly as I work … The bulk of my career has been spent at the small scale of the startup universe – companies with 15 people or less; often a lot less; more than a few times, I've been the only engineer. I have done three stints with companies at or near the three figure number of employees: Dataware, Mascot Network and Seas Education. One of the characteristics of working at the small scale of startu....

Everyone has their own secrets to keep — and sometimes, they're things we want to share. Here's an illustrated guide to secret sharing. It explores the concepts of crytography, some history and provides a neat insight into the ideas behind RSA.

This is another one of those "Tales from the Past" blog posts where something kicked off a memory. In this case, I was at a conference and talking with someone who was President of a startup and they weren't quite sure what to do. They had found themselves, at a very early stage, sidelined in their own venture and pigeon holed into a tiny portion of the business. And, keep in mind, that they did have specialized domain knowledge of that ....

WE STARTED A COMPUTER COMPANY!! You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting to say that! I guess some context would help… Steve Tuck , Bryan Cantrill , and I officially started the Oxide Computer Company . Since then, we’ve been working on closing up fundraising, getting an awesome office, and hiring! You are probably thinking “a computer company? that’s outrageous!”.. well it is and it isn’t. Over the last year, I had the opportunity ....

I like to think about things. To riff off Austin Kleon , I want to become a professional writer so that I can be a professional thinker. For now, though, as I have said many times before , I write to clarify, condense, and record my thoughts. I have sat down today to talk about Tesla’s new Cybertruck — not because the Internet needs one more hot take , but rather to pursue those goals. Permalink.
