Fred Brooks, author of The Mythical Man Month, has died at the age of 91. This classic was my introduction to managing complex software projects. Its many insights and lessons still apply today. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Bro

The thing everyone says is missing in Mastodon is not actually missing.

People want easy, that's why they all gave up on protecting anyone from a pandemic.

That Twitter algorithm is not your friend. They were marketing people & their thoughts like a product to earn ad revenue through interactions.

Your followers are now your advertisers. They can be seen by every instance. You aren't in an echo chamber, you just need time to grow.

Never did a proper #introduction, so here we go.

My name's Arthur (or Art, take your pick). I live in #Omaha Nebraska. I solve problems for a living, usually using #code to do it. I am an aggressive generalist - I focus on the user and the problem, not the tech.

I am also an international public #speaker who writes talks about #psychology and #mentalhealth and how that affects how we write and use software, both alone and with others. I #stream my talk creation process on Twitch.

For various reasons I had to cancel my #FFXIV. After a year and a half and LOTS of hours and late nights, I'm giving my lovely Elezen Rena a rest for now.

I've recently been enjoying #GenshinImpact quite a bit, but also thinking of getting into #WoW, though the latter intimidates me. Any ideas/suggestions for getting going with those #VideoGames?

I’m nearing 80K fans already here. I’m feeling the love, and not regretting spending some of my time here. Folks seem very nice, very supportive.

I wonder if I can hit 100K by my third day here. That would be something. Follow along to be part of this new adventure!

Musk-Twitter has been such a visceral experience of why there should be no billionaires. It should take more than one mediocre egotist’s midlife crisis to ruin a collective creation of 16 years.

obituary 

Fred Brooks, architect of the IBM/360 and its OS, author of The Mythical Man Month, and advocate for the 8-bit byte (enabling lower case letters!), passed away today.

Few in computing have influenced so many.

A bunch of long time mastodonians are suggesting that newcomers take the time to learn the rules, to recognize what is and is not "courteous" where the tools of the site are concerned. That's fine, and I agree.

However, I also want to make clear that you have every right to insist on being your whole, complete self in this new space. Insist on it and keep insisting on it until whomever says otherwise relents.
