FYI @alexmilowski@sfba.social

How did we get here? The central factor is surely the way that US politics has increasingly empowered the extremes of political parties at the expense of the mainstream. My take:

@Grady_Booch Séquence diagrams are one of my favorite tools for documenting all kinds of interactions.

@SFBART maybe you all could quit it with all the fare inspections that delay the trains. There has to be a better way rather than to stop trains from moving.

@BenCodeGeek RedisGraph is a great choice - especially if you are already using #Redis.

What's the graph DB of choice these days? Something lightweight I can spin up locally in a container (You get tutted at and rolled eyes if you mention Cosmos DB) RedisGraph caught my eye

@robinberjon Exactly!

@robinberjon Yes! We’ll have to fix that somehow.

@robinberjon I am sure they are sad to see you go. I always enjoy your commentary and am very interested to see where you go next.

@ndw You’d be famous !

@ndw Well, you can do sharing in the browsers but to be in the sharing menu you need to write an app … maybe you should make a simple post app - I would install it: developer.apple.com/documentation/…

When did the twitter app start making a funny noise when you swipe down for updates? Or has this always been there and I just noticed (very possible)?

@mimizone Expected BROKEN behavior - this is a bug they documented with hack workaround.

got bitten by random HTTP 500/timeout on Google APIs, blaming a million other possible things until @alexmilowski read the troubleshooting section to find that it's the official expected behavior on GKE. #troubleshoot-timeout" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cloud.google.com/kubernetes-eng…

From the rescue that I got my dog Jade is this sweet girl: cuddly.com/donate/4910945…

@ndw “The Republican party isn’t going to wear evil clown suits.” There, I finished it for you. 🤡

@dret You can tell how much they love cheese!

Shopping in France is always such a trip, you can tell how much they love food!

@QuinnyPig @googlecloud Use Redis if you have more than one.

Google cloud friends: I need to store a string accessed by a @googlecloud function. The function may then optionally update that string so it can be used on the next invocation. Do I want to use Firebase, Cloud Storage, or something else here?

@robinberjon Of course, the French version is … un chef-d’œuvre culinaire

@robinberjon I am so sorry for your loss.

People keep tweeting advice in the form of “something you might needed advice on … Here are the N things I am going to say:” Here are 10 that I read:

Maybe because I like people and miss interacting with humans. I don’t want to just hobgoblin out at home over a computer - just me, the dog, and cup of coffee between working code and being done.

And I see the empty shop windows in my neighborhood, or the restaurants that I used to go to that are takeout only…

Reading about the difficulty faced by #SF downtown, this thought occurs to me: if you just work at home but you want to live here, what do you think will be there when you do go out? I want there to be a vibrant city around me.
