@robleathern Looks legit!

Bad :(

@markjaquith @WordPress He’s likely to skip and go build an AI startup.

Small discovery that made me smile: My son's high school computer literacy class is teaching him about publishing software I helped lead and popularize for over a decade (@WordPress). The thing I excitedly skipped college classes to build is now a boring required class. 🙂

@gabemays Agree. This is also why I like Strava.

Build in public check-in: One thing I love about habit tracking by tweeting is that it creates a long-term asset that enshrines your progress/achievements and provides more of a visual progress indicator. It's also proof that you did the work, more than some LinkedIn credential would show since this shows your consistency day after day. That's something to be proud of. Yesterday I was playing with ways to show that off for users in a fun way beyond just the habit graph we currently use. This example uses my daily @_MathAcademy_ updates. It's super basic, but you get the idea. I'm going to explore this more as I get time. @HabitGraph track this ✅

@fmbillwatt Yikes!

So far my evening has included no one on my team recognizing a popular Hall and Oates song, one guy asking me when TVs got color, and learning I'm the same age as an adult coworker's mom.

@TerrifyingClip @ChildrenLife2 Jonathan Livingston Pigeon!

The way this pigeon descends 😧

@benthompson This is a great one!

Acquired the best Starbucks mug of all time and the pinnacle of my tech company coffee cup collection. This was only available at the TSMC Starbucks and features the Starbucks logo as a chip on a silicon wafer. Hard to photograph though!

@scottmcnealy That video! I remember you guys up on the roof.

The Futures so bright, gotta wear shades. Old timer Sunnies will remember.

@RakeshSFNYC It’s so gooooood!

Come on dishoom! Cross that pond. One of my must-visits on my trips to London. Especially the new one with the art-deco interior.

@anpaure This is really smart

home depot swes are gonna have a blue collar experience

@RakeshSFNYC @robleathern 100%

@robleathern The UX on everything other than Tesla (for Tesla owners) is awful. I shouldn't be required to set up an account to fuel my car. Tap your card should be it.

Sad. I’ve used public EV chargers probably 7 or 8 times. EVgo or Electrify America or Chargepoint. In **0** cases did it work first-time. Usually an unknown problem with the charger. Best tactic -> wait for someone who is actually charging so you know it works. So bad.

@robleathern This is getting silly

Surprised?

@adamnash @Pierce_Brown Agree! Amazing vacation read- I’m in the middle of book 3.

Had a chance to read the first three books of the "Red Rising" series by @Pierce_Brown in the past two weeks. Highly recommend, especially if you've been missing a new sci-fi series. Set in the future about 700 years w/ full solar system colonization + genetic engineering. Very clearly an author that loves sci-fi. Echoes of Starship Troopers, Ender's Game, Divergent, Illium, and Red Mars. Might be the first new sci-fi series that I've enjoyed in over a decade. Just purchased the next three books. amzn.to/3VJ1fXC

@chrislema Chris! This is great. Good job man.

I used to weigh 495 lbs. I’m now down to 235 lbs. that’s a 53% reduction in my weight. I’ve spent the last 6 years really focused and that’s been the trick for the last 150 lbs. I’ve done 3 things that helped. The first was focusing on sleep. I now get 7 hours minimum every night. That has meant moving meetings around but it’s been so worth it. The second was learning to cut many of my meals in half. Serving sizes are outrageous these days and it’s helped me redefine what would fill me up. Notice none of these required any working out or athletic effort. But a couple weeks ago I stepped into the third move - exercise. I’ve started doing @body20studio - which puts a new kind of workout suit (FDA cleared) on you for additional muscle stimulation while doing a 20 min workout. WOW! I just finished a workout and I’m tired. But that was 20 minutes I could do without straining anything. It’s 100 times more effective than me working out on my own. My day job is focused on #motivation. One of the things I hear a lot is that losing weight requires motivation. That’s totally correct but nothing like what people mean when they say it (like motivation ebbs and flows). It’s learning how you’re wired so that you can tap into your natural motivation to make crazy things happen (like losing more than 50% of your weight in a healthy way).

@rakeshlobster @robleathern Pretty bad. Training victims. :(

New to me: capital one now requires you to take a picture of your ID to be approved for a credit card. They text you a link that goes to your camera. Get ready for the next era in fraud. @robleathern

@robleathern that one really hit home!

@royalhansen Awesome shirt.

Might be my new favorite tee shirt

@royalhansen Gaaaaa. So frustrating

#SanFrancisco ... I keep trying to love this city

@rakeshlobster Looks like the same thing that briefly hits my porch before entering the recycle bin

What is this thing I found in my hotel room?

@vishwanathsarng Awesome!

@cornett Pffft. The PM function needs to exist - call it something else or spread the responsibility around. Your team at eBay did some really good ‘PM’ work too.
