PEOPLE LISTEN: On February 27th, Italy had 600 people infected with coronavirus. Today, it has 10,000 cases and the entire country is on lockdown. That was *11 DAYS AGO.* Guess how many the US has right now: 600. THAT is exponential growth. Do the math.

I just ran into the weirdest chrome bug, where chrm no longer respected "autocomplete='off'" but did respect "no"...restarted chrome and its all good again. That was a painful dive into 6 year old bugs for no reason. I should'a "powered it off and on again" first ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ – at Tempe, AZ

Your move Facebook. Enough is enough. It's absurd that ads for shoes and deodorant receive more scrutiny than political ads. This isn’t a free speech test. It’s a test of trust and it’s time Facebook stepped up to the plate.
We’ve made the decision to stop all political advertising on Twitter globally. We believe political message reach should be earned, not bought. Why? A few reasons…🧵

I have often wondered why the zealots with megaphones at Dundas Square keep it up every day - I can’t believe they’ve found a single convert with that approach since it’s very loud and everyone seems to hate them. This offers a possible explanation why they do it. – at Toronto, Ontario

Government: You owe us money. It’s called taxes. Me: How much do I owe? Gov’t: You have to figure that out. Me: I just pay what I want? Gov’t: Oh, no we know exactly how much you owe. But you have to guess that number too. Me: What if I get it wrong? Gov’t: You go to prison

What if we stopped celebrating being busy every second as a measurement of importance? What if instead we celebrated each moment spent stopping, pausing, breathing, listening, being, and enjoying the present with the most important people in our lives?

Last month I interviewed all over the US as I planned my career reboot from JS to Elixir. I’m sad to report that my track record of learning and potential was rarely considered throughout. This blog speaks to a radical but necessary shift in hiring sizovs.net/2019/04/10/the-be…
