Instead of companies stuffing themselves on SaaS, @AndrejSafundzic argues for a new kind of software diet.

Cities have been called "the largest technology we make." 🌃
We should be asking these questions, then, before building them, says @zachcaceres.

37signals (Basecamp/HEY) CEO @jasonfried advocates "short-term thinking" when running a company.

He explains why 👇 future.com/jason-fried-basec…

I interviewed @jasonfried on work culture. This bit, on why writing > brainstorms, stuck:

How to break the cycle of technology panics:
Instead of being reactive, science should be proactive. If researchers need 5 years to begin understanding something, the process shouldn’t start while everyone’s hyped up and politicians are demanding answers. future.com/cycle-of-tech-pan…
