Well, @weathernetwork, your awkward layout changes have driven me into the arms of weather.gc.ca for my 7-day forecast bookmark

It was a pleasure to speak with Derek on his podcast about managing remote teams, and my career as a Fractional CTO. Thanks for having me 🙌

It's annoying how good this is. I wish I'd written it.
Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with everything I want to do (or need to do) and the solution has always been the same: do literally anything. aaronfrancis.com/2024/do-lit…

OMG this is brilliant. This woman put her tech skills to use to troll VA Gov. Glenn Youngkin over a tipline he put up to report CRT. Her talk will give you life. teapawt.net/KeneAkers/status/17500…

The Lee Valley Tools Christmas catalog hits the same spot in my brain as flipping through the Sears Wish Book as a child Can’t help but say “Cool” every few pages A lot of stuff I don’t really want but is fun to imagine

Stole some pre-Halloween candy from my kid then compulsively separated out the red Smarties to eat them last but no really advertising doesn’t work on me

It took some self-control to not sing along with Kris Kross when Jump came on at the grocery store

Fredericton leaf pick up was this week and round 2 starts in 9 days. My trees did not receive the memo (I haven’t raked nor mulched yet this season).

I wholeheartedly recommend all the audiobooks written by @binstructions and narrated by @luckylukeekul. Off to Be the Wizard series and The Authorities books are so good.

the best kind of debugging involves a failure that feels impossible at the outset but by the end you understand the issue so well you wonder how the system worked at all

Perhaps the only place worse for thoughtful dialogue about complex topics than this former bird app is a protest / counter protest line. There are scared, hurting kids in New Brunswick that do not feel safe at home or cannot trust their parents to accept them unconditionally.

I can’t personally convince @premierbhiggs to change his tactics or prioritize protecting kids instead of sowing division to mobilize intolerant people in a bid to garner support in the next election. But shaking my head at home helps no one.

I’m represented by @DavidCCoon. He doesn’t need convincing. What do we do? Send letters? Sign petitions? My x-tweets won’t change the narrative. I don’t even dare leave comments fully open on this thread because I’ve seen the vitriol from all sides. What’s a moderate to do?
