It wasn't until I'd *taught* algorithms a few times that I finally understood why sorting is in the CS curriculum. Unfortunately, most curricula don't explain this! It is NOT because sorting is an important algorithm to learn to implement...
As a 41 year-old software developer do you know how many times I've had to manually implement QuickSort? Zero. Maybe we should test for more useful skills like taking a slow SQL query and optimizing it.

Noise pollution is worse than you think: a 10db noise increase (from dishwasher to vacuum) drops productivity by 5%. But YOU DON’T NOTICE: noise hurts your ability to think, not your effort. You work as hard but do worse! And poorer areas have more noise. joshuatdean.com/wp-content/u…

Thread on how Amazon treats its workers Context: Amazon full-time warehouse employees make $31,200 a year. Jeff Bezos makes that every 12 seconds. Cost to give warehouse workers 2 weeks paid sick leave + pay bumps so they don't qualify for food stamps = 0.9% of Bezos' fortune

😡 Where is your help, #Europe & @NATO? Close the sky over #Ukraine! Exclude russia from the @UN Security Council! @POTUS @eucopresident @vonderleyen @Europarl_EN #StopPutin #StopRussia
In 2020, the world's largest transport aircraft AN-225 Mriya began to perform humanitarian flights and deliver medical supplies to combat the coronavirus in the #EU. Then #Ukraine defended Europe from the pandemic. Today, russian troops have destroyed the world's aviation legend.

Ever wondered how the @zoom_us macOS installer does it’s job without you ever clicking install? Turns out they (ab)use preinstallation scripts, manually unpack the app using a bundled 7zip and install it to /Applications if the current user is in the admin group (no root needed).

Hours of daylight as a function of day of the year and latitude. Took me a second to read this chart. Totally worth the second of effort. A marvellous animation. Source: buff.ly/33E1d5T

Replying to @kentcdodds
TDD slows you down dramatically in the exploration / prototyping stage IMO. Payoff is really only there when things solidify and you know what you're building or what you have built.
