Was on Twitter from 2006 and Mastodon from 2016. Mastodon is my primary short sharing space.
There must be some low hanging rafters around Apple Park where leadership is smacking their heads to think this (and other odd decisions) are good ideas.

I can't "heart" this enough. I think of Kathy's work and discussions often. An utter gem of a human.

This is Portland right now. We’re“under siege” by pollen and potholes, that’s about it. We have a ton of live webcams if you want to watch us go to the farmers markets or walking our dogs, we love dogs.
Release the Epstein files.

I bought a small Stream Deck just for this. I now use it for more too.

The term seems to have surfaced in the 1970s to early 1980s. I don't run into it much in the US. When ever I use the term I have to define what I mean. There are other approaches similar, but not quite the same.

I've used this well beyond schooling to not read what I know and focus on what I don't

I hadn't heard it until it was introduced. Others who have been through that way of learning, where the focus isn't on the books but building the depth and breadth of one's knowledge seem to have run into it in England.

They have a wonderful support staff that I've pestering about a bug I've been running into on occasion for the past couple months.

This whole interview was incredibly good and did a good job calling out the blind spots that most have going all in and not understanding what they are getting into (reality, few with success go all in).

I need a rewatch and transcript as a project was pulling attention.
