CEO @localight and Commissioner for Tech & Innovation @LongBeachCity. I work with influencers and innovators who are driving positive, lasting change.

As a #fintech founder I keep an eye on #AI tools that can make our team more productive. @PythagoraAI has flipped the script to have the AI coding assistant prompt you, the human, to validate its sprints in full stack development. Eager to see this @ycombinator #startup evolve.

[DW Ferrell @dwferrell]

@meidesign @OpenAI Yeah, that needs to change, right @MissLisaMae? All white males. What sucks is that others will say “we don’t want to bring women on the board, look what happened with OpenAI”

@thegarrettscott The Rick-roll lives on!

@Scobleizer By “him” Robert must be talking about Elon Musk, which is verifiably true.

[Austin Metoyer (he/him) @Ametoyer13]

Thank you, Mayor Richardson! Incredible work has been done over these first 100 days to highlight the urgency needed in tackling the homelessness crisis and supporting small biz across the city.

We weren't affected, but several of the startups in our accelerator have had to take drastic measures, and CEO at a Utah startup said they may have to fold. #SVB

[DW Ferrell @dwferrell]

Well said @pmthn: "if you banked with SVB you were probably doing something with your startup that is worth doing."

@DLBA @dave_van_patten One thing I’ve loved about @dave_van_patten’s work is how he pushes for #diversity through absurdity. DVP also invites tree-heads, sasquatch, the undead and @GratefulDead to the party!

[Downtown Long Beach @DTLBAlliance]

#ICYMI, @dave_van_patten won his first Grammy award for “Best Recording Package - Boxed!” We are proud to have his artwork all over Long Beach. Join us in congratulating him and make sure to check out his work! To read more about his win, click the link🔗

@signature_hound @heroku Looks like it is down again.

[DW Ferrell @dwferrell]

@signature_hound @heroku It looks like @signature_hound is down currently? I noticed it because signature photos aren't displaying.

@RexRichardson Congrats REX 💪🏼 Time to FLEX!

@SenJohnThune $6 from the late 70's early 80's would equal $22 to $27 in today's dollars based on inflation. The minimum wage math simply needs to catch up with today's dollar.

@dpakman The GOP mob that showed up at the Detroit polling center was complaining no access, while 134 each of GOP and Dem official watchers were inside, each at a counting station. That’s max capacity. Rudy’s lying, saying GOP wasn’t allowed at all.

@RobertGarciaLB

[DW Ferrell @dwferrell]

@DanPriceSeattle Yes, although our small merchants that already made the move to Digital commerce are doing really well. And major chain laggards that still relied on foot traffic are tanking. So it's really a shift to digital commerce from foot traffic driven businesses.

I'm thrilled to announce that I've been commissioned by a publisher to author a book called "Long Beach, Next 10 Exits". Each chapter will feature 1 of 10 "exits" to LB, from The Arts to Aerospace. Can you send me ideas on who & what should be showcased in the book? 🖊️📖

I just published “Federal Financing Toolkit for Smart Growth Urban Development” https://t.co/fBObYzvEUF

@NicFlatow Hi, I sent an email to @CityLab about west coast content and wanted to make sure it didn't end up in the digital circular file.
