An example to show how insane this is:

You're a founder and you start a company. You own... let's say 30% of it. Everything is booming, you raise a round that values the company at at $500 million.

You now personally owe $37.5 million in taxes.

This year. In cash.

Listening to Ben Orenstein is in NYC interview engineers on the Tuple podcast is like time-traveling back to 2012-era Giant Robots Smashing Into Other Giant Robots and I'm loving every second of it.

Do I know anyone who moved to the US as an owner of a Canadian corporation and knows the ins and outs of the process and what the hard parts are re: taxes and stuff?

Always felt too daunting but think I’ll regret it if I never do it.

Disney cruise is undefeated as the best family vacation ever for the most proudly boring and suburban people ever (me).

The hardest part about trying to build and sell a product to fund your work on an OSS project is that starting a business takes more time and energy than even a regular job, so you end up with even less time for OSS.

I consider it pure luck that it works for us at all.

Should you mix your styles/markup/logic?

Adam Wathan thinks so!

Been working on this application layout component for Catalyst for the past couple of weeks, getting close! APIs are the hardest part but happy with how it's coming along.

Why on earth do `<th>` elements not inherit `start` as their `text-align` value? If you set any other value it's inherited, `start` is the only value that the user-agent styles seem to take precedence over.

Consistent in all browsers so must be a reason?

Breaking change I'm considering for v4…

For reasons that are no longer relevant, variants in Tailwind are applied right-to-left/inside-out, which many have pointed out as being unintuitive.

Fix this for v4?
