For real folks, MacGyver is awesome. He doesn’t like guns, he cares about the environment and world peace, treats women with respect, loves animals and can fix anything with duct tape, a pocket knife and science.

I know I’ve said this before, but I keep two on my bookshelf, so that whenever I lend it to someone, they can finish it twice as fast.
This book (The Mythical Man Month) is an example of why books can be so important and influential even decades later.

Written in 1975, in a very different time, about software engineering: some parts are still relevant today.

The parts that don’t change that much.

A huge amount of great practical advice from @gregcons.bsky.social in her talk 'The Aging Programmer'.

The bit on exercise and pain resonated with me... (contd)
