Entreprendre entre dogme et pragmatisme...
Il ne vous a pas échappé qu'Elon Musk, sur scène et en direct, a littéralement envoyé les annonceurs qui boycottent Twitter, sur fond de ses déclarations jugées antisémites, se faire foutre avec un inéquivoque “Go f*ck yourself!". Nous aurions tous aimé voir la tête de Linda Yaccarino à cet instant précis. 😅 Et tous les observateurs so...
I was on the Legendary Leaders Podcast

Demo of how page refreshes with morphing work
This article was originally published in the 37signals dev blog. We published a demo showing how Page Refreshes with morphing work in Turbo 8. Comparing code helps a lot in software discussions, so I thought it would be valuable to show how the new feature compares to Turbo stream actions for performing partial updates and broadcasts. ...
Live with it for a while
In the course of building products, you'll likely experience moments when you're unsure of a certain screen, flow, condition, label, idea, whatever. Maybe this button doesn't feel right. Or the name of this feature feels unresolved. Or some color is jarring, but kind of interesting nonetheless. Or the way something gets set up seems a ...
Nature 🤝 Nurture
It strikes me that “nature vs. nurture” is a silly distinction that mostly sticks around because it sounds catchy. (Or because people have some deeper agenda or justification they’re going for) Of course It’s not either/or. It’s both/and. Nature is the hand that parents deal their children. Nurture is how the people raising the child t...
Listen to the experts
I'm always saying that you should be listening to experts and their advice when you do something. If you need something done you don't know how to do it, listen to the experts because they've done it for years and they know how to do it. But I didn't heed my own advice. As you know I've been building my truck out and I'm on the road, I...
Always zig when others zag
Earlier today I saw a Post on 𝕏 that stated: “A lack of call to action will decrease the number of those who reach out.” I disagree with this. Websites are and should be informational, not a quick way to get someone to contact you. Who are you? How can you help me? Why should I contact you? Having a CTA at the top without showing these...
The radiating programmer
This article was originally published in the 37signals dev blog. You are an individual contributor at heart. You like writing code and solving technical problems. You dislike meetings and ceremony. Here’s what you can do to maximize what you like and minimize what you don’t: radiate information. The daily standup meetings that Scrum po...
Commodities, generics, and software
Once a product category proves popular, it's common for more companies to enter the market. Eventually, many options appear that are essentially mostly the same. Now we've got something that quacks like a commodity. Once we've got a commodity, generics eventually follow. Devoid of fancy packaging, marketing, and advertising, prices fal...
