@dwarkesh_sp I’m on book 4 - they are spectacular

Just finished all 4 volumes of Robert Caro's The Years of Lyndon Johnson. They're not only the best biographies I have ever read - and not only the best histories I have ever read. They're perhaps the best books I've ever read. Who should I have on the podcast to discuss them?

Day one working at @vercel today!! Very excited

Fun times day hiking the enchantments! @haley_codes is telling me we should move to Washington

@Molson_Hart Im halfway through “Means of Ascent”. It is a fantastic series of books

I recommend this weird book which: 1. Shows that American politics from the local to national level has always been a corrupt shit-show 2. Teaches you more about life and people than it does about Lyndon B. Johnson 3. Makes you pick up the beneficial habits of it’s subject

@elidourado Barry season 3 was pretty fantastic

Need your recommendations. What’s your current favorite show available to stream?

@_ThomasT @Austen Almost nothing. I had some SQL knowledge but nothing of JavaScript, react, node etc of what the full-stack program covers

If you are looking at working in tech and haven’t applied to BloomTech, Why not?

@Austen @_ThomasT I’m finishing up next month. The instructors have been great in my opinion and have always been very helpful. TA’s as well were awesome.

@_ThomasT What could we do to give you insight into that?

@typesfast @LambdaSchool Hi @typesfast I just applied to two roles at Flexport (SWE Freight-Forwarding & Solutions Engineer) as I mentioned I would back in October. Would love to work at Flexport!

@typesfast Looking forward to applying in 9 months when I finish @LambdaSchool!

We are hiring: Flexport.com/careers

Champions league semi-finals are unbelievably entertaining year after year

@AlecStapp I think the German people took their Netflix show ‘Dark’ a bit too seriously

Who could have predicted

Just found a bug in the Airbnb booking process when using a giftcard. Maybe @jgebbia or @bchesky will hire me after I finish @bloomtech to help fix it.

@Austen I actually had an array rotation question only my code signal GCA this week and this was all I could think about

@tszzl What about halloween masks

people who did not own a RuneScape party hat will not make it in the modern world

@gill_kyle I was really looking forward to you becoming a LinkedIn influencer

I announced my design platform on LinkedIn a couple weeks after this announcement tweet to gauge what kind of difference the platforms might have. This tweet resulted in about ~10x the number of signups so I think I know where I'll spend my time 😂

@profeshkitten Okay this is the best use of this meme yet

Him: SO WHAT DO YOU DO? Her: I'm the prime minister of Finland. Him: WHAT?

@Austen you can find the long tail by adding "reddit" at the end of each search

I swear Google is getting worse over time. I don't know how the weighting has changed, but any search is heavily weighted to a few giant media organizations. I miss "find great resources in the long tail" Google.

@nic_carter I did this to my parents
