You are not powerless. You are not alone. Groups aggregate power. Be together.

starting to do research on a subject you know nothing about is like
me: "okay. first question: how do lawyers work?"
source: "um... well, what kind of lawyer are we talking about"
me: *writing down enthusiastically* there are types of lawyers

This is a good reminder that open source doesn't mean free or forever. The Ingress NGINX project has been a gift to the community for almost 10 years and should be celebrated. All the contributors to the project have my respect and should be proud of themselves.

I think a big chunk of the "linux is hard" sentiment stems from the fact that most linux users do weird things with their computers. basically this:

Why is every interaction with TSA so varied? Sometimes folks are very helpful, but often I get frustrated and angry responses even when I follow their posted instructions. Agents get frustrated when I don't follow their ever-changing rules, despite receiving only glares and no instructions.

i've been cooking without love for 4 months and my family and friends have not noticed. some have even complimented the food... usually i've left the dishes emotionless but have experimented with adding ennui and occasionally acrimony

@proton.me Please will you please stop redesigning your app and just smooth the wrinkles instead? I think I've archived the same 5 emails 5 times between web and mobile, and they just keep coming back. Every redesign is a new set of pain points.

At a certain point, meetings are the work. Building up others, coaching, mentoring, setting strategy. All these things happen with other people face to face.
I had to start seeing it that way, because otherwise I feel like I'm not contributing, but if you stop attending those meetings, what happens?

Hmmm. Lately I may need an alias for 'git spush'

Not sure why that keeps happening

If ISPs wanted to use DNS snooping for good, I bet they could use number of lookups across a region for fast.com abd speedtest.net as a great indicator for an outage. I bet it would be quicker than downdetector

I really don’t understand how people don’t feel like assholes when listening to their music without headphones on public transportation.

Today's travel gets more wild. Airline says this flight is "weight restricted" so my backpack can't go in the overhead. I guess it magically weighs less when you put it under the seat?

My pre-scheduled ride share just cancelled because the place I'm at is on a dirt road. In the desert. It was a Ford explorer. 🀯

I've seen enough (2) videos of primate mothers greeting/raising other species' babies that my opinion (completely unqualified) is that instead of hand raising zoo animals, we should give the babies to chimps

Never could bring myself to use stickers. Pins are reusable and now I can display them too. Much excite.
