Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. #goodtrouble

when i was in jr high my parents were worried about me getting through life because i was so... soft. i told them that if you threw a glass bottle out of a window it'd break but if you threw a kleenex it'd be fine, and like the kleenex i would be fine

Echo chambers work just as cults do: by systematically alienating their members from all outside epistemic sources. Last week’s most read: ow.ly/6zfH30jnUvv

I dated a girl in college whose mom tried to talk her out of being gay by telling her she'd have to go through life w/out someone to open jars for her. At the time it was upsetting but in hindsight I kind of love that jar opening was the only use for men she could think of.

The problem with Facebook is not *just* the loss of your privacy and the fact that it can be used as a totalitarian panopticon. The more worrying issue, in my opinion, is its use of digital information consumption as a psychological control vector. Time for a thread

I'm an engineer at heart, which means my eyes are rarely pointed up towards the clouds. I'm usually looking down at the pothole in front of me.
But in my biggest, broadest vision, 5-10 years from now, building tech for the State of California would carry the prestige of Google.

Two rounds of deep analysis of employee performance data at Google show that the top predictors of success are being a good communicator in a team where you feel emotionally safe: washingtonpost.com/news/answ…

In one bill the @GOP have perfectly summed up their priorities:
Millionaires over children.
Corporations over middle class.
Wealthy over sick.
Money over morality.
Party over country.

Great thread that combines explaining the technical details of what net neutrality means with the current economic reality and political consequences. teapawt.net/jtm_/status/9413577168…
I'm getting tired of the #NetNeutrality meme saying "if it passes you'll pay $14.99 for Twitter and $.10 per Google search". It is absolutely not what is going to happen and we should try to educate people on the real reasons why #NetNeutrality needs defending. Thread ⤵️⤵️1/n
