@QuinnyPig @patio11 Exactly. For any US-based employee of any cloud. And that letter can say "...and don't tell anyone."

(This is driving sovereign cloud development/operations, obviously.)

@patio11 @QuinnyPig This got "clarified" by the US CLOUD Act in 2018. https://t.co/l62qMCVf4G

@skamille I believe it is a form of carcinization.

The programmer version of The Talk is when you tell them about that time zone that's half an hour out of sync with all the other ones.

@NFIDvaccines @SaadOmer3 @DrPaulOffit My message to a room of scientists: "When will you start paying attention to sociology research as a REAL & valid scientific field & trying to understand cognitive bias & sociology & the rest of it? It's LONG PAST DUE."

> The office is still seen by many as some sort of “natural” environment for humans as if we stepped from the Great Plains of Africa straight into a world designed by Hermann Miller. Nothing about the office is natural.

Love this piece.

This whole thread is @polotek at his best. I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about why we give up power when it is given to us and I think this conversation has a lot to do with it. I’ve been calling a lot of the reasons managerial work sucks the triangle of tension.

We all know about carcinization: shelled creatures with many legs tend to evolve into crabs.

But have you heard of mustelification?

It's a phenomenon where carnivorans develop slender bodies, short legs and small triangular heads.

In other words, they evolve into weasels.

Bruce Boynton died today.

A lot of people don't know his name but he is evidence of how recent slavery was. It's SUCH a crazy, mindblowing story that's centered on a Black woman who I've argued might be the MOST important person in Civil Rights history

A thread.

@nnja @codepo8 Talking about trust, fairness, and psychological safety, military special forces have exactly the same concerns about alleged high performers.
