    re that thread I retweeted earlier, this one particular comment made me smile. It provides a wonderfully succinct definition of the trade off between software development and product development.

    “Business logic” being a term of art which means “your bullshit”, in contrast to “my code,” which is beautiful.

    Mute me for a bit if you don’t like long diatribes about startup debacles but this reminds me of a story (1/n)

    The drop in replacement fallacy promises that you can make technical improvements to a system without having to understand the business and product problems the system is solving, without having to to talk with people who aren’t like you, and without making hard decisions

    100 miles in just under 4 hours. On a 24 hour time trial. That’s mind boggling.

    100 mile (approx) times overall top 25 ... Andy Jackson just pipping it by 4 mins at the moment, tight for the rest of the field, just seconds separating the women!

    So they’re going to turn the Tour into a bikepacking race? Now you’re talking.
