I just started practicing BJJ, and it's pretty awesome. Quite the workout, but mostly therapeutic. Only two sessions in, but I'm already observing fears and insecurities that I didn't know I had in me. @jockowillink you've been right all this time.

What a good deepfake! And all the infrastructure around it is on point. Hope not too many folks fall for it. Never trust @elonmusk promising free crypto!

I've recently had some really good conversations with engineers of different backgrounds. I'm really interested in having more of these! Any recommendations for meetups or networking groups?

I was just charged a mandatory 20% "fair wage surcharge" AKA tip in a restaurant. So, I need to pay a significant extra amount for you to give your employees a fair wage? How about you just pay them a fair wage from the start? BS

Just finished watching "General Magic the movie", and boy it's so inspiring! For those of us that are in the tech industry, to be part of the team that produces such an transcendental leap in the history of technology, that is the dream.

Holy crap, in the past 3 years I have received 19,756 images via WhatsApp 🤯. No wonder my phone was cranky.

Ok, I get it now. I understand why people love #Python. Sorry it took me so long.

"When analyses are based on fundamentals rather than empiricism, an engineer can have great confidence in his or her designs". Well said, Greg Mehos, Ph.D., well said.

Notes like this is why I love reading technical books as much as I love reading any other genre

The Forrest Gump 500 starts today. 500 miles in 1 year with your feet. This is a measurable, easily attainable goal, and you will be motivated by Forrest Gump gifs. Retweet this if you’re in, set the goal in the app of your choice, and go put a mile on the scoreboard.

I just saw these two excavators do a handshake, passing a rock from the bucket of the small one to the bucket of the bigger one, and it felt like a beautiful moment of machine friendship and love. These machines, as their operators, must be best friends

First, people was comparing COVID to the flu. Now, see more and more people comparing it to the Vietnam war. Holy crap.

This response from the Judge is definitely something that Daniel Waterhouse would say @nealstephenson I love it.

And speaking of leadership, last night's Biden's speech was so damn refreshing: calm, composed, encouraging peace and union. Thank you.

This is a great country with great people. We've just had a bad leader. I sincerely hope that this change in leadership means a return to decency and citizenship.
