Today’s unusual / less well-known sonnet is this: Ian McKellen ⁦(@IanMcKellen⁩) reciting Shakespeare’s Sonnet 20, backed by garage rock band The Fleshtones, on Andy Warhol’s short-lived chat show in 1987. #PrettyRooms [313] 🎶 youtube.com/watch?v=2AF5p5…

1/ This was a fun question with lots of interesting answers, though in the end Ian was pretty disappointed by the replies. But I thought it would be interesting to relate the history of how to language levels of @racketlang came to be. ↵
Has any "PL+HCI" paper/body of work seriously grappled with the limitations of user-centered design? Are PL+HCI people even aware that alternative design traditions exist in HCI?

GraphQL makes your public API equal to a generic database and -- worse -- a generic graph database. The amount of maintenance work is sky high. Locking the query capabilities down means you're just doing normal APIs but not locking it down means infinite performance work

When is Data Mesh probably a bad idea? If your software engineering teams are not divided by business domains as independent teams. Apply concepts like strategic Domain-driven Design first to decentralize your operational systems. More: datamesh-architecture.com/#w… #datamesh #ddd

A common mistake of many first-time CTOs or VP of Engineerings: Mandating that all engineering teams in their organization start working {the same way using methodology X}. They usually feel this is a big win for them, and the company. In reality: it's almost always a disaster.
