I’ll say this once. My wife had cancer. If I’m having a Cancer fundraiser, I don’t need you or anyone else running in yelling “All Diseases Matter.” Right now, #BlackLivesMatter  and it’s OK for you to say that. Say it. You don’t need to qualify it any more. No “but”

"We've enjoyed interviewing you Scott, great job on all these real-world not-whiteboard interview tech questions. One last question. You've been coding for 25 years. What's the Markdown for a URL with custom title text?"

Pro-tip: bugs repro so long as you continue running on the branch in which they exist.

#Goodday Feeling great after hitting 170# thrust in #CrossFit last night. Just solved a memoization on #leetcode that freaked me out this morning.

Looking forward to today!

What does it say if you are so indecisive on languages that you roll a die to choose which language for #leetcode problems. It makes for interesting comparison between collection and math libraries.

@usrbinpikachu Terrible, whole new RISC architecture.... wait sorry, itanium flashbacks. X64 isn’t much different. Compilers at least to do some weirdness because they could stuff more in extra registers.
