How might we act on @POTUS’ call to end this “uncivil war”? An idea: create the Civic Communications Corps + advanced tech platform to catalyze nationwide network of communities for greater mutual understanding of others & more responsive govt. https://t.co/dFj9Gqk7ty

"A pandemic is a communications emergency as much as a medical crisis." When we are teaching the next generation, please keep that line in mind. If we bungle the communication, we cannot win against the epidemic. We need full clarity, whatever it is. https://t.co/rek6Gly69D

The truth is, everyone is at risk in this pandemic. Keep you, your loved ones, and your community safe by staying home as much as you are able to. The medical community is unified on this. Be smart, #BeatTheVirus.

Put together a little #dataviz proof of concept during a hack week at work last week. It's a 3D faceted search UI using #reactjs, #threejs, and react-three-fiber. 50,000 objects at 60 FPS in the browser is pretty sweet!!

#BeatTheVirus - You may have it and not know it. Don’t spread the disease. Stay home as much as you can. Wash your hands often and try to keep 6 feet apart. Now is the time to engage online and not in person. It is not just about you, it’s about us... All of us!
