    Poured sriracha in my laptop's touchpad and now it doesn't click nicely anymore. Ah well.

    So folks, how is your proposal for Heart if Clojure coming along? I'd love to see talks on 👩🏽‍🎓 hiring and training juniors, 🤡 weird stuff you've done with Clojure, 🏋🏼‍♂️ what we can learn from other communities and 🐢 open source sustainability.

    'For example, the idea of “data ownership” is often championed as a solution. But what is the point of owning data that should not exist in the first place?'

    Job interviews are often seen as a test that the candidate has to pass to prove that they’re ~worthy~ to join the company. That’s not a great way to achieve this:

    The ideal outcome for you is that the candidate is great and the company gets a great new team member. The ideal outcome for them is that they get an offer and are thrilled to work with you.

    The most common mistake I saw interviewers make was treating the interview as a search for everything the candidate *didn't* know, instead of everything they *did* know. It's an unfortunate mistake, often leading to false negatives, a poor candidate experience, and a monoculture.

    Is there an infinite set that's bigger than the set of integers but smaller than the set of real numbers? Cantor guessed the answer is *no*. This guess, shown on the shirt below, is called the Continuum Hypothesis. Now it's been connected to... machine learning! (continued)

    After burning a New Year's bonfire, my jacket smells like smoke and fuel oil. The perfect olfactory complement to my hikingwear/workwear inspired style!

    I never re-read books but I think I'll give it a go. It was easy to think of books that I liked and expect to still like (e.g. Hobbit and Slaughterhouse-Five) and ones that I liked but expect to dislike now (ZAMM). Need to come up with some that I didn't like, but could like now.
