He saw Trump as driven not by a pure love of dealmaking but by an insatiable hunger for “money, praise, and celebrity.” Often, after spending the day with Trump, and watching him pile one hugely expensive project atop the next, like a circus performer spinning plates, Schwartz would go home and tell his wife, “He’s a living black hole!”
It’s a shame that the people who need to hear this message the most are the ones least likely to be reading The New Yorker on a regular basis.
I, of course, am stuck in the past, not willing to give up—or even share—the ownership of my words. Still clinging to a publishing model that may soon be as outdated as print. Erik’s hybrid system is probably the right way to accomodate the new realities while still maintaining control. But I’m not a fan of the new realities. I know the niche I’ve carved out is vanishingly small, but it’s all mine.
I keep this site for many of the same reasons Dr. Drang mentions. It’s all mine, a little piece of the internet that belongs only to me.
This looks fantastic.

Tiff and Marco go undercover into Starbucks once more, this time to find their favorite cold drinks.
I love listening to these two, a great couple with a great idea.
I look at this iPad Pro, being updated via my Mac, imagining the horses that were used to deliver materials to Henry Ford’s factory.
I’m sure it happened to you too.
Just remember. That horrible moment when you time-travelled using undo - to copy and paste that line you deleted twenty minutes ago but for some reason you really, really, need it now - and then you hit a key and insert a letter. And just like that, your way back is gone.
The only appropriate reaction to that is either eating your computer or turning into a hulk and going on a neighbourhood-destroying rampage.
Yea, as a matter of fact, that has happened to me. Great Vim tip, especially combined with saving work when switching away from Vim.

Any Windows users out there might want to hold off for a few on that big upgrade.
We launched AWS Device Farm earlier this month with support for testing apps on Android and Fire OS devices.
I am happy to give you a heads-up that you will soon be able to test your apps on Apple phones and tablets! We plan to launch support for iOS on August 4, 2015 with support for the following test automation frameworks:
This is very interesting news for the thousands of iOS and web developers out there. I wasn’t too surprised at the Android device testing, but this is something different.
I could see that my 9-to-5 job wasn’t my destiny. It didn’t fulfill me or stimulate significant personal growth. It wasn’t that I was bored, but it was more like feeling out of place—I could and should do more with my talents.
I know the feeling. Right now I’ve never been happier with where I am in my career, but the feeling Kevin describes is how I felt for seven years at my previous job. I felt like I was slowly atrophying in that cubicle. Today, after making the jump to a much smaller company where I have much more responsibility, I feel like I’m doing the best work of my life. It was scary, but worth it.
