Well, there's pretty much zero chance I'm going to start using official clients, so unless the third party APIs start working again, I'm probably off the bird site. Been nice hanging out with folks, see you around. :-)

Internship alert! This is a pretty cool opportunity to work alongside someone I greatly respect doing something I'm really passionate about & I know many in my network are also passionate about! #DEI #inclusion

@Lenniesaurus I enjoy “beans and greens” for this. Heat some black beans, add collard greens and apple cider vinegar, sauté until good, serve over brown rice with sriracha. You can also add bacon, kimchi, or any number of other random things if you like.

@Lenniesaurus I had no problem at all understanding you, though I didn’t have any trouble before, either, so I’m not sure how useful that is as a data point.

Regardless, thank you for continuing to make these; I’ve been enjoying learning a bit of Scots through your videos for years!

1/ "Leadership is a repeatable skill, not an art." Over 25 years ago, I attended a leadership session at Netscape, run by Jim Barksdale. It was a single hour that profoundly impacted my career.

@rands I have three main methods, and a fourth that doesn’t work anymore.

A) Go to the cool coffee shops. Sound Hound.

B) Go to BeatPort. Listen to everything. Very time consuming.

C) Twitch DJs.

D) Record shops. Be a regular. Get great recommendations from the clerks. (Defunct.)

I'm looking for remote tech work!

I have been teaching code and coding (mostly ruby- and JS-adjacent stacks) for startups and big companies alike since 2014.

I'll be a multiplier on your team because my communication is clear, kind, and proactive and I write tests for my shit.

Web technology secret: you do not have to ever

Frameworks: you do not have to
Libraries: you do not have to
Compile/build process: you do not have to
This decade's pre-processed CSS solution: you do not have to
Literally CSS, JS and 99.99% of HTML: you do not have to

@1goodtern @oogmar Yes, I am experiencing that right now. I normally lift weights and box multiple times a week, but currently have covid and can’t even open bottles and jars with moderately tight lids. Reeaaally hoping my strength goes back to normal after I’m no longer actively sick.

[John Hyland @[email protected] @djspinmonkey]

@mypalmike Amazing. An evil genius.

My new favorite holiday song is The imperial March and Chorus of the Bells. https://t.co/9pSi1ibTFZ

@njoybetz @oogmar Same. I have to do the math every time, and even that assumes I can remember what year it is now.

@rands Drinking whisky and watching cartoons. Much safer.

[John Hyland @[email protected] @djspinmonkey]

@imelven Yeah, I also had a prediction, but then I read the list and, dang! There’s fierce competition from many sides.

[John Hyland @[email protected] @djspinmonkey]

@kscaldef Wow, ok, it turns out I did not know.

I'm extremely on team "you do not have to" (as someone who only makes tiny websites, mostly by myself)

The Oregon Health Authority and Clark County health officers are 'urging' people to wear masks indoors again.
