#Albuquerque is out in style today: lots of costumes and signs and singing, lots of enthusiasm. #NoKings

Median age feels a lot younger than in June. Still just as many angry granny signs (I love them 😍) but tons more young people this time round.

A Slackbot message reading, “Welcome to #politics! People in this channel tend to join #drinking and #insomnia, too.”

Thank you for that, Slackbot.

Headline: ICE came for their neighbor so these Tennesseans formed a human chain to protect him

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

This is funny. And the serious problem with the NYT is it misinforms about reality. Not with inaccuracy so much as emphasis, perspective, and framing. That makes it a bad news source. Go to the Guardian, or Wired, or others/ independent sources. You don't need the NYT or LA Times, or WaPo.

Portland OR Hands Off Rally

Oh wow: Portland Oregon is NOT KIDDING

Oh dang, is this an impersonation account? That's a bummer.

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

The internet used to be where I'd go to get away from the rest of the world.

Now, I go outside to try and get away from the internet.

That is excellent to hear, thank you! 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Went to this conference last year.

It was amazing. Such good stuff and good conversations.

Every year we have at least a few speakers who are doing their first ever talk on stage. If you'd love to give a talk (or love to *have given* a talk) but you're a bit nervous of it (or, indeed, absolutely terrified 😂), it's a really nice first speaker experience.

We're just starting to plan this year's #StaffPlus conference in New York next October.

The CFP opens on March 3rd, so if you've ever thought about pitching a talk to StaffPlus (or LeadDev), start getting your ideas together!

This game is a really lovely intro to programming/understanding how to read code. Ms 12 has been writing Python/Scratch for a while and she blitzed through it, but I think it would have been excellent when she was smaller too. www.101computing.net/wp/wp-conten...

Maybe I should update my .vimrc 🤔

Today I've taken both the dogs for extra long walks, washed the back door, put away all of the laundry, tidied my office, and achieved what Duolingo described as "the most XP you've ever earned in a day!"

It's wild how productive you can get when avoiding a terrible paperwork chore.

Brb putting it on my linkedin.

Madeleines dipped in chocolate and decorated to look like bears.

Cookies, mostly shaped like bees, except one is a pig. The baker has gotten enthusiastic with the piping bag: the baking paper also says "hi! and "bees" and has a picture of a pig drawn in black royal icing.

I got Ms 12 a www.kimjoyskitchen.com recipe book and some piping bags and food colouring and etc for her birthday. BEHOLD!

Also one time I solved a problem faster than @lizthegrey.com and ok I think she was on a plane at the time or asleep or something but that's not the point, I will hold on to this achievement forever 😂

"Yeah, #AdventOfCode is really about the personal journey, not competitive, it's about competing against yourself not anybody else"
"how are you doing on your work leaderb..."
"sixth!!"

Typing "you are maybe hedging too much in this paragraph rather than taking a firm stance?" as a comment on a doc. No hypocrisy here, nope. 😅

A copy of the Japanese translation of The Staff Engineer's Path.

Look what I just got in the mail! I didn't even know there was a Japanese translation happening until the doorbell rang and I had to sign for a package from Japan. Well that made my whole day.

This starter pack thing is good. Nice work, whoever came up with that one.
