 * EPHEMERALITY
   
   One of the downsides of a career in software is that it’s actually pretty
   rare for anything you write to last more than a few years. Hardware goes
   obsolete, operating systems get upgraded, apps and companies fall out of
   favor, domains expire, standards change. Our entire professional world is…
   ephemeral. So it’s nice to occasionally…

 * THE BULLY IN ME
   
   One of the more insidious problems with raising a kid is that it forces you
   to revisit past sins, however small. I recently read a collection of stories

 * FREEDOM OF SPEECH .VS. THE RIGHT TO BE HEARD
   
   “Ender’s Game” is a Hugo-award winning sci-fi novel by Orson Scott Card.  And
   deservedly so – I loved it, and enjoyed all five of the follow-on novels he
   wrote in the Ender universe. But Card is also a well-documented opponent of
   homosexuality and gay marriage – a moral stance that I find
   abhorrent and hypocritical.  And he’s getting worse as…
