The thing about John Henry is that John Henry is dead . Here is some rough math: In San Francisco, entry-level software engineers make about $190,000 a year. Hiring someone costs more than just their salary; companies also pay for healthcare costs, payroll taxes, and other benefits. Conservatively, the fully-loaded cost of an employee is 30 percent higher than their take-home compensation, so the total cost to employ an engineer is about $250,000 a year.

What a difference a week makes. This past weekend, Formula 1 went back to Bahrain, the site of this year's preseason test, for round four of the 2025 season. Last week's race in Japan sent many to sleep, but that was definitely not the case on Sunday. The overtaking was frenetic, the sparks didn't set anything on fire, and the title fight just got that little bit more complicated. It was a heck of a race. V10s?

Trump’s rationale for his threatened tariffs is to force companies to manufacture in the US. He’s cited the example of Apple making iPhones in the US, and even recently claimed that the company plans to do so. Apple has explained many times why it simply wouldn’t be practical to do this, with CEO Tim Cook doing so a full decade ago. Analysts, supply-chain experts, and a former Apple engineer have all added their weight to the view that it simply isn’t possible, and wouldn’t help even if it were

Some engineers think it’s a virtue to remain non-committal in technical discussions. Should our team build a new feature in an event-driven or synchronous way? Well, it depends: there are many strong technical reasons on each side, so it’s better to keep an open mind and not come down on either side. This strategy is fine when you’re a junior engineer, but at some point you’ll be the person in the room with the most context (or technical skill, or institutional power). At that point, you need to

“People are package deals; you take the good with the confused.

And I don't mean chatbots with access to a search engine. Search is suffering from a quiet, unfortunate assumption.

For decades, the only way we could communicate what we wanted was through a little search box. So they did their best.
