Interesting account of how living a democracy at a company level fails. The power of the people we pride ourselves on at a state level fails to take hold in the workplace.

I found this post by Carlos really interesting. Seeing the file size of the data for the whole world is kind of like seeing the size of all of wikipedia compressed, it fills me with amazement. Much of the things that have been built is in that data. It piqued my interest and got me looking into the OSM data model.

Also, NIMBY Rails is great for train nerds like me, y'all might like it too if you dont already.

The book's title is a nod to the Roger Waters album/song that deals with the same theme.

The book predates the song and album by about 7 years, so the album name references the book. Postman even mentioned the fact in his 1995 book "The end of education"

Wow, I just love interactive blog posts like this. For grids I can really recommend just playing around with grid areas in a tool like https://grid.layoutit.com/

I've been using the site to plan my grid layouts for a couple of years now and it just makes spacing so much easier

I dont know why but this story always makes me laugh. It is genuinely well written and mixes casual insanity with humour so well that I cannot help but laugh at it every time. Hope y'all enjoy it too!
