What I wonder is: why has nobody noticed that code editors lack a concept of 0? When you're writing code, you can express any concept except that of an unfilled hole. We've rearranged every part of the coding process in a twisted-up way, all for the lack of a way to express lack. If you want to be more clear about what I mean, look to tools which can express holes like https://scratch.mit.edu and https://hazel.org. - Source: Hacker News / 12 days ago

Middle managers not adapting. When my old job when remote for Covid, my manager would hold telecons, despite having access to videoconference software with the capability to document and screen share (IT setup BigBlueButton ).
