Hey Twitter employees getting laid off tomorrow! IMPORTANT INFO from a CA employment attorney (me): CA's "WARN" law requires Twitter to give you 60 days notice of a massive layoff. A layoff of 50+ employees within a 30 day period qualifies. I know you didn't get that notice.

On Sunday, set your clock back one hour. On Tuesday, make sure that you don't set the country back 50 years.

Oh for Pete's sake, people. We didn't stop doing Big Design Up Front (BDUF) because it is waterfall. We stopped doing it because it doesn't work well most of the time. – at Scotland, United Kingdom

PA debate is heartbreaking. Fetterman is the blatantly better candidate, but the stroke is likely to cost him and the rest of us.

I never thought I'd live to see fascists shouting anti-semitic slogans while retaining the support of a major US political party. 😔 Sending love to the Jewish community. ❤️

"Why isn't the team proactive?"

Folks often need time for curiosity and initiative to regenerate if they've been treated as factory workers. Hold space. People will surprise ya in the most delightful ways.

Don't ask for forgiveness or permission. Instead, share intent.

There is no such thing as an Agile Project Manager. Agile is not a project-management framework.

We only asked if we could, never if we should...
🧵: I discovered this woman, who I call Loab, in April. The AI reproduced her more easily than most celebrities. Her presence is persistent, and she haunts every image she touches. CW: Take a seat. This is a true horror story, and veers sharply macabre.

Pondering a culture of arbitrage and quick wins vs the generative, long-term mindset needed to solve problems. Planting seeds we'll never enjoy fruit from must become the norm.

On a day of many thoughts, my heart breaks especially for the most marginalized members of our society. The burden is almost always heaviest for those who are already burdened.

If you’re against abortion, don’t get one. If you’re against contraception, don’t take any. If you’re against same-sex relationships, don’t have one. If you’re against same-sex marriage, don’t marry someone of same gender. Do not impose your beliefs & religion on all Americans.
