@cometparty our family plays games. It a board game review channel. Even if you don't like board games, the hosts are great. Its fun and serious at the same time. Its about trying to make community. https://t.co/ZndOsvs98l
@jandev@BostonGlobe agreed. This state's transportation needs help. Transportation ripples into housing and other issues. Though traffic made me learn to love my bike commuting. I hope we progress. Baker/S.Pollack did almost nothing and its telling sign she's leaving to work on federal highways.
@SueNBCBoston My sources have heard rumors of bowling with a larger, very heavy ball with holes drilled in it. Where the pins that you knock over are removed between throws. I've dismissed them as legend, but the stories of this bowling outside 128 persist.
@ewarren Why not expand the Federal Stay In School program? I worked as an engineering assistant to help pay my state university bill and I got experience. It was a great program that dwindled in mid 90s. It seems all but dead. eg: https://t.co/bq9kuMDRNH
@llbbl Not an expert, but its a thing that the senate get around strange rules to pass certain legislation that normally requires 60 votes to end debate/filibuster. With these rules you need just 50 votes. it started being used in the 1980s.. though its existed since 1976.

@SueNBCBoston @jessemermell It cost money to take pictures back in the day (plus time unless polaroid..). In last century college, the college paper had a challenge finding people with cameras to work there.
What programming languages and cars have in common:
🧐 Everyone uses them but few are enthusiasts
✨ Engineering meets design
For a timeline cleanse, here's a thread of programming languages as cars.
First up: Python as the Honda Civic. Practical; ubiquitous; not the fastest.
Picture the nerve of pretending to be upset about being cancelled because of a book contract while occupying a position of utmost power, when you just used that power to vote to cancel the votes of more than 10 million people across 2 states
@THATMeribor@roliepoly I had to look it up too. I think its "data build tool". Though I'm spending enough time with databases that it could be either..
@otterX synthetic (plastic) insulation is pretty good. I have a "polartec lined" winter coat, its great, but discontinued. REI coop has decent if a little pricy jackets. Search for "synthetic insulation jackets" . I get them big so layering is an option.
