I almost fell off the trail into a ravine to get this @Adobe event info in your hands, so please give it a watch. I'll be presenting at 2 different events in Feb - so much fun to talk about!
@MannyMarotta@constans The X algo (unfortunately) rewards `well akchually` posts very well, which is why controversial takes often get traction, and "I had a really great day" posts simply don't
@MannyMarotta Vienna is very much not free, similar to Zurich. The fine for fare evasion is €135-€185. "Honor system" is definitely not the same as "it's free." You're very much supposed to pay.
Every time it’s like
“City dwellers, how do you live a suburban lifestyle given the constraints of the city”
>we don’t live a suburban lifestyle, we live an urban one, fitting our preferences
“That doesn’t make sense because it doesn’t match my preferences”
@BloggedByRain I lived in Portland through a few different MAX light-rail expansion projects. EVERY time, there was this bizarre black-pr campaign of "IT'S THE CRIME TRAIN" until the train line was completed, and then everyone was like oh whoops sorry it's awesome.
@billywoodward Congrats!! Of course now I have deep-seated jealousy and feel an illogical need to create an "ADOBE...CHAMPION" fraggle rock video of my own
@BobFromAccounts You know how there are international bike-to-work days? There should be international drive-to-work day where every single bike-commuter drives to work in a single-occupancy vehicle, just to illustrate that fabulously crushing traffic potential.
@MichaelFKane So, the Falcon is a YT model freighter with 10 tonnes of foodstuffs on board, act 2 of Empire Strikes Back actually takes place over a period of 3 years. Leia & Han's 3yo was actually having the run of Bespin station while all the fights & action sequences were happening.
@Pinsky They have routinely had the most questionable art direction choices. Duo showing his/her bulbous bootie, Duo having a brain explosion, Duo made out of MSPaint, I have wondered SO MANY TIMES what the design approval process is like. "Yeah...this is AWESOME, ship it!"
This week's @lastfm announcement had me again geeking out about listening analytics. I love being able to take a fraction of time and then analyze my own listening habits. Why? No practical purpose other than to point out the times of day I love listening to non-lyrical focus music, and the time I absolutely shred to metal because I'm mountain biking and trying to be as far from screens as possible. Case in point, the average of my last 10 years of listening:
@tatumturnup That drive is actually lovely, it's engagement bait. There are MUCH WORSE ones, nearly every southeast interstate drive on I-20/I-16/I-95 is a mind-numbing corridor of zero scenery and not even any great city or bridge views to punctuate it
@trieloff@CeliaBedelia I took a bike even more granny than that up to the top of Teufelsberg on the trails, so it's likely more than capable of anything else in Berlin. :)
