Short logic (Reddit’s crappy ultimatum to remote workers and offices)
http://shortlogic.tumblr.com/post/99014759324/reddits-crappy-ultimatum
It’s hard not to get worked up about something that seems so unfair and so shitty to the people who did their part to get Reddit to where they are today. It feels like using people in the worst possible way. It smells like hopeless inadequacy to subject your workers to such a huge life change based on such flimsy justification.
Physical-web by google
http://google.github.io/physical-web/
The Physical Web is an approach to unleash the core superpower of the web: interaction on demand. People should be able to walk up to any smart device - a vending machine, a poster, a toy, a bus stop, a rental car - and not have to download an app first. Everything should be just a tap away.

Ken Shirriff's blog: Mining Bitcoin with pencil and paper: 0.67 hashes per day
http://www.righto.com/2014/09/mining-bitcoin-with-pencil-and-paper.html
I decided to see how practical it would be to mine Bitcoin with pencil and paper. It turns out that the SHA-256 algorithm used for mining is pretty simple and can in fact be done by hand. Not surprisingly, the process is extremely slow compared to hardware mining and is entirely impractical. But performing the algorithm manually is a good way to understand exactly how it works.
