Our first job here is to be human and help each other, he failed at being a human. Who cares about couple of bytes saved. If he didn't do it some other random person would have done it. It's not like he was way ahead of his time.

I've been taking a break from all social media for the past three months and it has been great.
I just wanted to come back to make sure every academic follower hears me out on this:

I don't care if he has won a Turing award or whatever other award, in my view his tiny brain was not able to get him to come around his bigoted, biased views.

They are debating the word "find" in congress.
Hilarious!

Said this out loud after reading tweet chain yesterday.
Letters of recommendation are for privileged people who go to famous schools.
As one professor told me, we don't know any of the professors from Sharif. We just know that students who come from your school are good.

@siobhcroo Most people on oncall rotations were paged because the ACKing system didn't work either and it kept escalating the page to more people
Escalation paths are usually something like: primary, secondary, whole oncall roster

In a parallel universe where everything is in reverse/upside-down instead of having the stack being over flow, the wolf is over cats

Today our team decommissioned a 14 year old system.
This was the Noogler (new google employee) project of my tech-lead and it started 7 years ago.
More than 400,000 queries per second are all gone.

It just feels good, it gives me a high that publishing papers didn't!

@jmhessel @Airbnb Oh the CJK conference

Public service announcement:
If you're living with someone take a shower, you probably stink.
If you live alone also take a shower ffs what are your standards?

[Rahmtin Rotabi @RahmtinR]

First of all don't panic! At the very worst half of the internet is down.

Right!
