I like the idea that some product team at Facebook looked at @bestofnextdoor and went, now THAT is the kind of content we need more of on our website.

@gregyoung Crashing arduinos attached to water rockets - has been a while but I've made some craters :(

I know lots of people who have spoken at conferences. What *non-work related*/IT related thing could you do a conference presentation on?

@StachuDotNet Meanwhile in San Francisco..

@creeves51 Thanks! (and always fine to ask for translation).

@dplattsf No need to apologize. I enjoy your posts even when I don’t understand them.

@jmeickle @StachuDotNet Time to go serverless

@TeaDrivenDev 10% of my Graduate studies were strumming the office acoustic and 50% of that was playing “More than words”. We had a version called “less than in tune” where you add an Aflat note to every chord. It’s beautiful.

The downside is that you can grab it anytime for "just a few more minutes", and then "a few" becomes like 120.

The single most important piece of advice about playing/practicing guitar is leaving it out on a stand where you can see and reach it, instead of storing it in a case and having to get it out to play.

@lindamciver Maybe the virus is like toxoplasma gondii - engineering people to be more social :)

@AndyLiSF1 @noUpside That's so sad - I loved Alvarado and especially that it had a really healthy mixed community and that parents invested a lot in the school and equity. I always thought the name was a tiny part of making that community feel welcome (more than a John Smith elementary would).

Healthy reminder for us all, Twitter is not where the work happens. Lots of misinformation going out that creates more division. Important to check in with the source 👍🏽

@AndyLiSF1 @noUpside How is this not a crime ?

@AndyLiSF1 @noUpside @lopez4schools If @lopez4schools and @AliMCollins are upset with the flak they are rightly getting from media, parents and twitter, they can start by showing some good faith efforts to promote truth and transparency over agenda,

@AndyLiSF1 @noUpside @lopez4schools When you say "correct", you mean the politically convenient one. The namer of Lowell was born in Lowell, MA. The only thing linking Lowell and the poet is an ancient, unsubstantiated wikipedia sentence with no reference. This level of "research" is beyond incompetent.
