    Re: Frederick Hsieh's push to turn Monterey Park into a new higher-end Chinatown, and the resulting resentment and white flight -- LA Times article from 1987, in the midst of SGV's transformation to an Asian enclave. Great quotes throughout.

    Good run down of Chinese food in San Gabriel Valley. Enjoyed hearing about LA's racist residential segretation, immigrant migration to SGV and Frederick Hsieh's marketing of Monterey Park to overseas Chinese as a "Chinese Beverly Hills."

    Very impressive level of polish in the Metaflow docs/tutorials. Pretty incredible how many details have been abstracted away by Metaflow. Hoping that the team / OSS contributors can develop GCP-compatible adaptors for Metaflow.

    Been looking at data science notebook tooling vendors - e.g. Binder, NextJournal, FloydHub - & thinking about what functionality can be (partially) replicated in or OSS tools. Similar to ML experiment tracking tools, this is an emerging space with lots of vendors.

    General sentiment about this beta (or alpha) version of revamped Explore tab. For me it used to feature tweets by well curated accounts in relevant areas like data science & tech investing. Now just a collection of generic topics like football & pop music. Help !

    From Snowden's new memoir - a description of his experience of using the NSA's XKEYSCORE online surveillance tech. Details of this system were made public in 2013 but it's still incredible how powerful and intrusive it was.

    This ZDNet article is one of the few that focuses on explaining what are the novel portions of the Rubik's cube robotics project.

    Memoir of a liberal arts grad's tenure at unnamed, thinly veiled startups "during the dawn of the unicorns" Imagine being an inexperienced startup exec, emotionally abusing your employees, and having one of them write a memoir a few years later.

    Re: Kent Beck's point about duplication of work across teams being efficient during the exploration phase - this is in line with 's point that "when you are figuring things out and need to move quickly, the cost of consensus can be crushing."

    So many nuggets of wisdom and great anecdotes in this interview. Amazing how Kent Beck, one of the leading proponents of the TDD movement, was so open-minded and non-dogmatic when faced with the very different FB way of software development.

    😂 So important. I configured these settings years ago and double-check every so often that they're still set up correctly.

    Recommendation algo changes by to downrank harmful/misinformed content may have hurt engagement. Solution: more A.S.M.R. videos. "Sleeping fans tend to leave videos running — a boon on a platform that pays dividends for view length."

    Every few months or so my YouTube browsing surfaces some version of 's 'Barricades of Heaven,' and once it starts playing I can't stop listening to it. That melody and those lyrics.

    My two favorite passages in this great piece on Sanjay Ghemawat and Jeff Dean at Google - the first on their different coding styles, the second on Jeff Dean's persistence and influence in promoting neural nets to solve a wide range of problems.

    Had to look up DJ D-Sol on after reading this Bloomberg profile of incoming CEO David Solomon. His top hit with 2M+ plays: a remix of Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop."
