kanokun··on Why Enterprise Software Sucks
Products die young or live long enough to become complex "enterprise software" that a subset of its users hate immensely.

I would also like to point out enterprises have unique and complex workflows which require these softwares to have such complexity. I worked for a a big bank and every new manager/director/partner tried to bring in change by introducing more complex workflows and more checks.

So it's not a software problem its a people problem. It starts of as a thing that could be done on a white board and then you end up using complex Service now UI to do the same stuff.

kanokun··on ‘Mike’s Candyshop’: Behind the Overdose Death of Colin Kroll
This culture of drugs being cool and acceptable needs to stop. We don't need drug testing. We need education that taking drugs is wrong. The drug taker is as much as a criminal as the drug provider. I work around these tech-bros who talk about equality and solving world problems but then would go and do drugs. I feel it's a bit hypocritical. No?

I switched to vim I was unproductive for days and frustrated. Then I realised I don't have to go thorough this pain there are so many great IDE's out there. 10 years later I am still super productive and don't use vim.

>I believe, is because most of these trading desks sit in one place - NYC, a super liberal anti trump environment

I would disagree. Most of the bankers where I worked last were happy with Trump winning.

It will end only when there is a viable alternative and as of now there is none.
