@allezberry "soulful strolls" for the shorter ones?

[Helen Wallace @helenFindsLife]

@allezberry Maybe I said it before but Vesper Flights by @HelenJMacdonald is very lovely

@daithimicbineid have you listened to @Ologies ? Start with space junk or dendrology

[Helen Wallace @helenFindsLife]

@daithimicbineid Honestly, that kind of thing is a lot of work to ask someone to do in their free time and is a contributing factor to the lack of diversity in tech. Ask what you want in a candidate, it is easy to teach a framework but harder to teach problem-solving/communication.

[Helen Wallace @helenFindsLife]

@daithimicbineid Just remember it will take them about 5 times as long you to do anything because they have no idea what the system is and are trying to explain as they go. Normally asking hypothetical "how would you debug this" works better and gives a better assessment of their problem-solving.

@SarahKEB @wildwexican @wildandnativesr This is very exciting!!

Sometimes the internet gives you just what you need, when you didn't even know you need it. Thanks @semi_rad https://t.co/ClApuXmMlD

A fire destroyed the Moria refugee camps, housing 13,000 (built to hold only 2,500). People are in urgent need. The Irish Government has agreed to take in 4 (yes, you read FOUR) unaccompanied minors
We call on them to do more: welcome 400.

Late August, given heavy rain and sun
For a full week, the blackberries would ripen.
At first, just one, a glossy purple clot . . .
Like thickened wine: summer’s blood was in it
Leaving stains upon the tongue and lust for
Picking

Loop Head cycle, sea swimming, dolphin watching, cake, good friends... and lots of sunshine 💛 #Clare2020 @helenFindsLife

[Helen Wallace @helenFindsLife]

@HunterSony @ElaineBucko You should check out 'Cycling in Ireland' by @ThreeRockBooks its full of neat routes. I recently did the royal-grand canal loop they suggest and it was a dream and mostly off road.

My laptop keeps acting up with obscure bugs, I think it wants to be an entomologist.

This is the Becoming Anti-Racist PPT @curlyscientist_ @AutumnSkyeIvy and I presented yesterday. These are our perspectives. It is not a culmulative list of everything that can be done; but it is a start.

Listen, learn, & advocate ✊🏾 #BlackAndSTEM

You know you had fun in the sun when your smile lines turn into tan lines 🌞

I spent today merging and manipulating collections strings. To finish it off I found a common prefix from a set of strings.
Is this what all those coding tests prepared me for? 🤔

Found out yesterday that my family's easter tree tradition was born of my mothers desperation for some peace while working from home. None the less #HappyEaster.

@allezberry @csl_ You can just draw a comma in later it'll be grand

Thanks @speakjava for a nice webinar on #jdk14, especially your excitement for useful NullPointerExceptions
