"Move fast and break things" is a race to the bottom.
"Move slow and fix things" is a stroll to the top. We're having a picnic. It's celebrated in fable!

We're rocking our new kicks. My kid's style is very cape-based.
We look like a shinigami and a quincy were hanging in Oakland!

#Oakland looks like the dusty parts of Blade Runner 2049. Even more than usual look like antifa running errands.

Hmu if you need an n95 mask, albuterol inhaler, or crash space. This shit sucks, but we're gonna get through it. 💪

so, my dad is a mechanical engineer and i've been thinking about doing some kind of formal conversation with him to see what software engineers and mechanical engineers have in common. best practices, approaches to technology, tackling new projects, that kind of thing. i'm gathering questions and pinging my networks for some ideas.
if you could sit down with an engineer, what would you ask?
retoots encouraged!

@cstanhope yeah, but... maybe you should have lingered on that one a bit more... =P
See, it doesn't matter the reasons why you hesitate, someone somewhere is gonna give you flak for it. So be you! I'm having a blast getting beat up for who I am, instead of beat up for what I'm not. ^_^

Just received not one but *two* pounds of tea! That means I can really let loose!

@nimirea That's why I only read papers if at least one author is six degrees of Bacon.

No single one of us can experience everything we experience. That's pretty fun. ^_^

Android keyboard autocorrects to "fuxk" (the x is next to the c), so I just embraced it. You don't embrace it, or they'll catch on and filter it! Fuxk off!

Nah! Let's break the fuxking web!

Gonna come off as sarcastic (only meant to be half-so), so get ready: if you say, "if you turn off javascript it will break the web and users aren't smart enough to turn it back on"... so? Isn't that a net good?
Okay, so let me get this straight: the people you claim aren't smart enough to turn on an option, you want to make it easy for them to use social media and all that "influence"?

The design pattern called "infinite scroll" should be opt-in. Such an easy change that everyone would love. Make it a web API in browsers, even.

@trashHeap Without looking up any numbers, I'd say that fact pointed to people not buying into smart watches. Smart watches aren't really on my radar, though they are obvious spy devices...

It would be neat to organize economic systems along time zones.
