Chat-ops assumes Slack doesn’t go down, which is a bad assumption.

Just realized 30 days have passed since I deleted my Facebook account, which means Facebook has really, actually (allegedly) deleted my account.

I hesitated for so long, but I have not regretted the decision once in the last month. #DeleteFacebook

Megan Thee Stallion’s performance was the best part of last night’s SNL.

What is a pandemic/protest related song getting you thru these times?

@robey@mastodon.technology My interactions with Gitlab employees online indicate it is not run by adults, but am curious of there is other evidence of such.

While waking up to bad things happening to bad people is a nice change, I can’t help but fear the general trend of our simulation: Trump exposes Biden at the debate, Trump survives, Biden doesn’t.

Good planning requires top-down guidance. There should be a rhythm between leadership and teams. Leadership provides context, teams provide plans, leadership integrates plans, and teams confirm their buy-in. This is a good article explaining that rhythm. https://firstround.com/review/the-secret-to-a-great-planning-process-lessons-from-airbnb-and-eventbrite/

It’s October 1. Time to wake up.

Oh look, I made another sour dough frisbee. 😔

Does macOS 11 have machine learning for autocorrecting misfires from the shit MacBook Pro keyboard?

(Yes, yes, I know the new MacBook Pro fixed this, but my work won’t replace my laptop just because its keyboard design sucks.)

Why did Reuters use a nearly 5 year old Fitbit product as the hero image for that story?

As of 2020-09-29T13:44Z, I am no longer a $FIT shareholder.

That divestment was way longer than I wanted in order to minimize losses. Learn from your pal and always sell ESPP shares as soon as they vest. Thank you, EU, for the spike to acquisition price. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-fitbit-m-a-alphabet-eu-exclusive-idUSKBN26K1PH

I first heard about LoRa years ago while working at Fitbit. LongFi smartly combines the IoT networking protocol with a payment protocol. On Friday, I brought the 3rd @Helium router in Stockholm, Sverige online. Here’s an unboxing video. #ThePeoplesNetwork

I thought Slack was mediocre, but then I had to use Discord.

Having to mute a bajillion channels in Discord is a terrible NUX.

@kornel Ah yeah, in a programming language or protocol, this strategy would be bad.

Ember.js solved a similar problem with "editions". https://emberjs.com/editions/

@kornel One strategy is to ship the features continually and then announce them to the press later. It’s ok if existing customers enjoy them earlier. The press moment is to attract new customers.

“Stage Mother” was a delightfully surprising find today. Touching story, tons of great one liners, and lots of SF b-roll that made me miss The City. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt8364138/

I ran the Virtual Runners #BerlinBreakTheWall 5K today in Nacka, Sverige. 🇸🇪

@da@mastodon.technology I get that. But that happens anyway with modern polling and east coast states reporting results before west coast states finish voting. Just seems dumb to not start counting early this year due to the pandemic related increase in mail in voting.

Watching “Chernobyl” on HBO. Why do the Russians speak with the transatlantic accent instead of a Russian accent?
