Most trumpet advice was written for people with four hours a day and no other obligations. You have a job, maybe a family, and thirty minutes on a good day. That's not a limitation to apologize for. Work with it. #trumpet #jazzpractice

Enjoyment isn't something you earn after a good practice session. It's a skill you practice like everything else. Stop treating every session as a test you either pass or fail.

Don't get attached to your code. It's a liability, not an asset. Instead, focus on building scalable, maintainable systems that can evolve over time. #codemaintenance #systemdesign #hashtag

I’m sorry, I simply cannot be cynical about a technology that can accomplish this.

@blacksab67 Hard to say “best”, but saw tons of great shows at The Musicians Exchange in Ft Laud. Stanley Jordan, Buddy Rich, Freddie Hubbard, Maynard Ferguson, Steve Morse, Leo Kottke

@DaveJageler “waiting for Godot” and “Dog party”. You’re on fire today!

[Brittany Berger @thatbberg]

we have a tendency to write people off as "lazy" too easily

what if you assumed everyone (including yourself!) was doing their best right now?

Best practices for writing code-comments by @ellenspertus: https://t.co/wsguBHFO9J. Often, comments should only answer questions code can't (e.g. the "why")

The amount Elon Musk just paid for Twitter ($44 billion) is nearly equal to Biden’s proposed climate budget ($44.9 billion), in case anyone's wondering how seriously we’re taking the climate crisis

In the past decade I worked as a consultant for dozens of companies, I met fantastic devs, and most of them don't have a public GitHub profile. That doesn't make them less great!

Just because you're not standing on a public stage does not mean that you cannot play the guitar! ❤️
