I’m thinking about hosting a bi-weekly Seattle meetup where people spend time hacking away on projects and then share what they’ve been up to/what they learned at the end.

Who would be interested?

I've built a new Bluesky tool (as part of Skythread) - it lets you scan your timeline and evaluate which of the people you're following are contributing how much % to your feed 📊 #atdev

I haven't figured out navigation yet, so for now you need to use this link 😅

This resignation letter from Alondra Nelson should be read by every academic. Silence is Violence. When the institutions get hollowed out by a well funded, anti-science movement, there is a need to do more than simply preside over downfall and oblivion. Speak. Act.

Scott Galloway warns that slashing science funding and turning away foreign talent will hurt the U.S. economy. Government-backed breakthroughs like the internet GPS and mRNA won’t come from quarterly profit-obsessed firms.

If you just ignore marketing, you’re not “product-led growth.” You’re just building a GitHub project instead of a company.

Either growth is designed intentionally into the product, or it’s in actual marketing and sales activities.

I’m really only just getting into it but I genuinely love birding as a hobby. The entire goal is to look at the bird. Is there a bird? There is a bird! Look at the bird! If you are very keen you can learn what to call the bird so that you can properly thank it for the joy you feel when you see it. 🪶

When a government cancels a $50 million suicide hotline for LGBTQ teens, but keeps its $92 million birthday parade for its president, it is no longer a great, or even a good country. It’s a tinpot dictatorship.

The chickadee outside my window this morning: “ITS SPRING!”

ok, I agree, that’s great, but it will also be spring two hours from now when it’s not FIVE THIRTY AM.

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.
"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

I see accounts out there defending Schumer and I don’t get it. These people are happy with the ineffective responses from dem leadership? No plan?

This doesn’t minimize the harm that Trump/Musk/etc are inflicting. It’s about actually fighting.

The lying and the staggering incompetence around this is astounding. And dangerous.

Our Founding Fathers were no dummies.

As James Madison wrote in Federalist No. 47: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands...may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”

This is what Trump wants. We will stop him.

23andMe has filed for bankruptcy to sell itself, which means any data they hold about you is going to change hands soon. If you're worried about your privacy don't rush in and delete your account - scramble it first. This way, any residual data they retain after deletion will be useless too 🧵
