Very involved dad, Humanist, and Unix guy in roughly that order. If you follow, I'd appreciate 140 characters on why you did.

I've found a slogan that might be listened to in the red states.

Bugging me to hear people on the radio complain that their power went off a dozen times yesterday when mine never came on in the first place. 33 hours and counting!

[Chris Garrigues @DeepEddy]

I’m happy to report that today is the day after Groundhog Day.

I don’t know about the rest of you, but for me, yesterday just seemed to go on forEVER!

@onthemedia What data are YOU collecting on me?

[Chris Garrigues @DeepEddy]

@onthemedia why are there Austin Energy ads on WNYC podcasts? Do people who don’t live in Austin get those?

@HiddenBrain i dropped off Twitter 3 years ago due to outrage fatigue. After the election I tried returning. I only lasted a week and swore not to return until January 21. Your show is making a great case for not returning even then.

[Chris Garrigues @DeepEddy]

After a week back on Twitter, my outrage fatigue has already returned. I’m going to try again somewhere around January 21.

Without saying what year you started coding, Quote this tweet with something (an ide, a build/ deploy process) to signify how long you've been coding

@tom_peters @Mostunlikable @jonasanbrown @ChaosAndOceans Reminds me of the job where I learned to work my butt off on the projects I liked before they got Canceled and ignore the ones I didn’t like since they were going to get canceled anyway.

[Chris Garrigues @DeepEddy]

@tom_peters @Mostunlikable @jonasanbrown @ChaosAndOceans Yes but … 50% or more of the time, if I procrastinate long enough that “new thing” will no longer be of any import whatsoever

[Chris Garrigues @DeepEddy]

There really is nothing to add.

@wisekaren My conversation with her was long ago now that if I’d caught it, I’d already be having problems. We spoke from balcony to balcony 10 feet apart.

[Chris Garrigues @DeepEddy]

@wisekaren Next door neighbor caught it from her visiting asymptomatic father a few weeks ago. It’s increased my awareness since I now know that I talked to her while she had it.

If memory serves it was not an orderly transition because the Trump team refused much of the assistance that the Obama team provided

[Chris Garrigues @DeepEddy]

My daughter is a white girl who used to get mostly As and a few Bs in a good school with great WiFi and she’s struggling with failing grades. I can’t imagine how much worse it is for kids without her advantages.

Why are so many students posting Fs in remote learning?

Texas failed to properly prep for the fall. They delayed needed guidance+gave conflicting messages — squandering time educators had to plan.
