"The new lingua franca of programming is English." "I don't look at code anymore. I don't look at diffs." "There is no way I can look at 3000+ diff patches anymore. It's all spec-driven." At first, it's a hard thing to grapple with as a...
3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Philippians 2:3-4, The Bible...

I read this article about "shared realities," and it obviously made me think of current events. I live in a red state, so whenever I'm meeting someone new, I always have to send out feelers and hints to find out where they stand. Which...

January 2026. South Blackpool. Another 20 minutes wait for a tram at Blackpool Tower (I’m not making this up); I’d have walked the mile to the Tipsy Seagull quicker. Not only were we meeting Blackpool Jane, in actual Blackpool, we were...

The default design for Bear Blog's toast button looks good, but it has become stale for me. Thankfully, it can be completely customized through CSS! For the upvote button, I use the same appearance1 as the navigation buttons, except I...
A winter hike on a familiar loop became an exercise in observation and experimentation. Without pressure to capture the perfect shot, I discovered new perspecitves, practiced composition and new techniques.
Flow charts and diagrams are not as fun as interactive prototypes, but they’re much more important to get right Nic Chan As a technologist, a large part of my job is making flow charts and diagrams to help inform design decisions. And...
How to cope with the fact that we ain't perfect and we have a lot of flaws? I mean, everyone loses sometimes, right? We ain't designed to win every time, I think. Lately, I've been thinking about it and noticed that in the last 180 days...

Yesterday I was walking in the Oxfordshire countryside with my brother and walking friends. It was a gloriously sunny morning – the first in a long dreary while – and, for a wonder, it stayed that way for most of the day, only clouding...
Check out As in guillotine... for more. NOTE: 2026 is kicking my ass left, right, and sideways, and instead of doomscrolling, I’ve been buried in a big day job project and pretending OOTP26 is a legit side gig, all while trying to...
Da die letzten Tage etwas bewegungsarm waren, „besteige“ ich heute zum dritten Mal den Monte Troodelöh. Das habe ich vor, seit wir Stempelkissen im Haus haben—doch dazu später mehr. Das Wetter ist gerade unter aller Sau, daher sind die...

Back on October 30, 2020, I published an anecdotal article about my rescuing a fallen public trash can in Gowanus. In that article, I posited a profound question: “If you do something heroic but don’t tell every person you know, did you...
So there’s this lady known as Mirtha Legrand; no, that isn’t her real name, but rather her stage name. She is quite the legend down there in Buenos Aires. She’s 98 now, and she hosted the same TV show for… 54 years. Not only that, her...

Stripe is famous for having some of the best product docs, largely because they are "designed to feel like an application rather than a traditional user manual". I spent much of the last week building and writing the docs for Scour, and...

Coffee and Cigarettes is a set of 11 short movies Jarmusch shoot between 1986 and 2003. I have no idea how he got Benigni in 1986, but damn! He gets the best cast. Anyway: I'm not a fan of this movie, as the quality differs significantly...
In an email to my friend Adam Roberts about Star Trek: The Next Generation — about which he has recently written eloquently — I told him this story: I was in high school when reruns of the canceled Original Series started getting...
I have been holding on to some of these links for a while. December was a busy month and I needed most of January to be introverted. Let’s see what’s still relevant. Reading The Harvest Will Come by Joan Westenberg. This is from over a...
Roughly three years and three months ago I executed what I call my Master-Switch Plan: I resigned from my stable, well-paid position at an excellent up-and-coming Japanese startup and hired myself. That same company immediately became my...
I often wake up with a random song as an earworm – and now I note them down for your enjoyment. This morning it was It’s That Time by Marlon Hoffstadt aka DJ Daddy Trance Reply by email
The web is getting worse, search engines are becoming more and more useless and AI crawlers are so greedy that by now they're almost indistinguishable from a DDoS attack. I had a few interesting discussions about this on Mastodon this...
I had another meltdown yesterday. It's been about a month or two since my last one, and they never get easier to deal with. I hate it when I hit myself and bite myself. All the electricity in my body puts my nervous system into...

Mitchell Hashimoto
I'm a developer living in Los Angeles, CA. I previously co-founded HashiCorp. Today I spend most of my time working on Ghostty, a new terminal emulator. I was part of the initial engineering team behind most of the HashiCorp products, such as Vagrant, Packer, Consul, Terraform, Vault, Nomad, Waypoint, and more. I don't work on any of those projects anymore. I was CEO for ~4 years, CTO for ~5 years, an individual contributor for ~2 years, and then left the company in 2023. I fly airplanes. ✈️ I'm an FAA licensed private pilot with an instrument rating (PPL ASEL IR). I currently fly a Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet. I frequently share pictures of my flights.
