When first I appear, I seem delirious,
but when explained, I'm nothing serious.

@wsferries If your systems can't handle the load, maybe stick to the rolling availability instead of releasing all the summer reservations at the same time. This is one of the worst reservation experiences I've had in a long time. Someone needs to be accountable.

@wsferries Takes 20 minutes to get a reservation in the cart, only to get this before being able to checkout.

#GRGR21 Day 1: "New To You" - Finally stopping to check out Wetherill Nature Preserve after passing the signs so many times on the 520 trail. Pleasant walking, nice water view.

Great to see Asian American kids represented as more than just good grades (but they still have good grades) in TRY HARDER! Also makes me wonder how I got accepted into any university, haha. #Sundance2021

7am and it's time for a day of Sundance! 🍿🎞 The timing makes it feel like a SIFF secret festival Sunday 😂

1st Sundance film: HOW IT ENDS dir. Daryl Wein & Zoe Lister-Jones. Charming, funny, and fitting for these times. Filmed during the pandemic!

Taking care of viz-ness (Tableau way!) 🤣 #data20

Iron Viz is awesome so far! I OOOHED at the dragging of text to create calculations (missed it last year). #data20

I'm also happy that he used the term "doomscrolling"

Nate Silver shares advice for our current times at #data20. Two of his points: 1) Be wary of confirmation bias. If all your friends agree with you, that may be a bad sign. 2) Trust people more when their claims are less confident and more nuanced.

[Nina @gck]

Enjoyed listening to Emily Oster talk about how everyone can use data to help make decisions in areas outside of their expertise, how we've seen so many grassroots efforts during COVID to collect, aggregate, and analyze data. #data20

[Nina @gck]

Super excited about TC! I miss being with people in person, but it's admittedly nice to watch the keynote in PJs and not sleep deprived :)

A few years ago, I had a @Garmin fitness band. Syncing broke with an update, so I moved to @fitbit, and I've stayed. Garmin has been down since last night when I was creating my workout for today. And now my Instinct won't charge. If I can't fix it, I'm going to a competitor.

#GRGR2020 Day 6: Vert day on Rattlesnake Mountain for a total of 2766 feet in 2 hours. There was more flat/down on the ridge than I expected so this wasn't the most efficient, but it was nice being out on the trail. Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich afterwards.

#GRGR2020 Day 5: "Photo Friday" Just some cell phone shots of a local trail. I discovered that Mt. Rainier is visible from one point in this park, never realized before!
