"The Story of Why I Left Riot Games"

Replied to a post on blog.flattr.com :

So Flattr is now offering a way to reward podcasters. I dunno; seems to me like too little too late. I used to be a huge fan of Flattr, but its pivot put me off in a big way.

Who thought this was a good idea? What did these plants do to deserve such ill treatment? And, most pressing of all, who would pay good money to have one in their home?

It's about time. That thing I promised a few days back, about time and the business of baking bread, is now published. My basic argument is that cheap bread devalues good bread and good bakers. "If a loaf of pap is available for pennies, how are we to justify an adequate reward for the baker who needs time and space to produce a different kind of loaf? It is the existence of cheap bread that makes a desire for something better into an elitist, privileged foodie pursuit." http://ow.ly/q5DH30lLVr2
