@MelinAnders This is the exec comp story I always wanted to write - comparing “top paid state employees” (i.e. football coaches) to the highest paid CEOs in that state

@Hebbard @gds923 @WSLSpodcast I want to say it was 2001 actually and @Hebbard we were at Wake Forest visiting Nick Mason.

I relate to this so hard

I wrote a story about that old box of cords you've been hanging onto for years and never open but are too scared to throw out. Here's a little thread about why we don't throw out cords: https://t.co/Mw1SSgery3

Meet our #CES2020 team! It truly takes a village to pull off a great experience at an event. And the Hexagon village is a great one! Stop by CP 15 at @CES to meet them, see the magic they worked and hear how Hexagon is empowering an #autonomous future!

[Dan Marcec @dmarcec]

Excited about trying the new @ImpossibleFoods "pork" at #CES2020? Well, if the line gets too later long we're right next door @HexagonAB - just sayin'

At the WeWork that houses The Atlantic’s San Francisco bureau, a pink neon sign once hung, reading: “Do what you love.” What you love is working, isn’t it?

We were honoured to work with the late Dr. Andrew Tallon when he captured the @notredameparis Cathedral, and we stand in support of the efforts to rebuild this treasure. #NotreDame #Paris

I'm late to the party on this one, but @Gartner_inc's concept of the "trough of disillusionment" has me dying 😂 Brilliant. (and from the looks of it, seemingly accurate) https://t.co/WkPjXClLfY

Congrats #ATL! "The Mobility award went to the North Avenue Smart Corridor project in Georgia (USA)." https://t.co/s9kNDY7LwN #SCEWC18 #SmartCities #shapingsmartchange

A fun statsticle from @WSJ @mims about the fourth industrial revolution. Interesting to note that #manufacturing jobs are still rising as productivity has spiked (but steadied). https://t.co/Un1m09ZJyM

Sure, I lived in #NYC when Manhattan was already "over," so it's hard for me to play the "I remember when..." card. But it's getting worse, and it's sad for everyone. 😥https://t.co/9FTQWsbkOB @DKThomp @CityLab

So this is why I've been irritable for the last 6 weeks (well, let's be honest, the last 4 months). It's #Science, y'all. https://t.co/23sfPXJg25

[Dan Marcec @dmarcec]

As I've renewed my commitment this week to riding @MARTASERVICE every day to work if possible (let's be honest, the end of summer in #ATL had a lot to do with it too), as well as improvements announced from MARTA itself, this was particularly relevant: https://t.co/9gxYJCBC2m

AI is going to have a giant impact on industrial technology sooner than later, but has a long way to go before it gets ironed out regarding social matters...
