No less, no more. Another good use of constraints from the Office 2.0 conference, via Om Malik: “Apparently, Google encourages all its employees to send things they learnt or want to share with coworkers as a snippet of five lines - no less, no more.

Here, take my market share. Please. Some niches just don’t make a lot of direct revenues to be worth fighting for. Until you realize the law of unintended consequences.

Peace pipe. Joel Spolsky is making amends with the Rubyists: “To a historian, it’s starting to look like type declarations are one of those accidental difficulties that good programming languages can eliminate. Beyond Java is a good summary of the arguments and worth reading.”
Anyone know where to get an advance copy of “Beyond Ruby”?
No Silver Bullet. Just a friendly reminder, to refresh the memory.
