@mckayjohns What data is being used here?

[Jinlong Yang @jinlongyang]

@nelson More likely he just realized how much he has to pay upon termination per the acquisition agreement, which was probably the reason HR didn’t confirm this guy’s employment status for days in the first place.

Football Wind ⚽️💨 A wind map visualisation of a typical football game. Each particle is following a force field built from the aggregation of ~1M passes. It is like watching rain pouring on a terrain eroded by all these passes.

@nishuang 这家英国的公司并没有开源他们的地址系统 今后会不会变为有偿使用要打一个很大的问号 另外他们的词库里有很多发音类似或者形似的词 非常容易弄混

他们的的市场营销做得很好 但产品问题多多 总之我不看好他们的前景

@somebitsLinks This could be another leverage for gov to further ctrl social networks. I won’t be surprised to see in future weibo would only allow local users commenting on sensitive topics, which means easier for gov to contain unfavorable topics and sway the public opinion with bots.

@somebitsLinks This is really bad in two ways. 1) Another layer of chilling effect for anyone who want to publish critic content on Chinese internet 2) Easily shift the focus of any arguments from the substance of the convo to geo/regional stereotypes and personal attacks.

Saying Mino Raiola wrote a new chapter in the history of modern football is like saying Osama bin Laden wrote a new chapter in the history of modern air travel #JustSaying

As seen on Weibo: Shanghai residents go to their balconies to sing & protest lack of supplies. A drone appears: “Please comply w covid restrictions. Control your soul’s desire for freedom. Do not open the window or sing.” https://t.co/0ZTc8fznaV

@mouthofmorrison I dream of working for an org where they've heard of the geospatial team or bother to approach them before going it alone/reinventing the wheel/announcing geo as this great new thing

I had a standup bit THREE years ago regarding Ukraine and how Americans never heard of it. Incidentally it also gave #PaulManafort an honorable mention.

If Daylight Saving Time wants to improve its branding, it should really have us spring forward at like 4 p.m. on a Monday instead.
"Wait, why is everyone going home already? Oh right, Daylight Saving starts today!!!"

As a…
– Twitter user
I want…
– the default view to be ‘home’
so that…
– I can see things I might like instead of things I actually like

@nelson https://t.co/YaVQzUZLu3 web version. I believe iOS native weather app also relies on https://t.co/H9vTGNKyKm in most regions. Cannot support accuweather after all their shady lobbying in the past few years.
