@spittinchiclets @BizNasty2point0 This no state tax issue is a red herring. There’s a “jock tax” where prof athletes have to pay income taxes on the games out of their home state. This is true regardless of their home state of residence. Not perfect but it even things out a little. Not sure about Canada.

@badtweetfactory Concrete anchors in the lawn??? I wonder how deep are they? Only one strap is in concrete. I hope it works! Good on them for trying.

@Akewusolaf @gunsnrosesgirl3 Did it fly as far as the Gossamer Condor, which flew across the English Channel in 1977? https://t.co/Qw1aRshcbR

@chamath How good is “Ground News” at showing balance? What they present seems like a pretty nice rating system.

@daveclark85 Great post David. Confirms something we knew anecdotally within our firms for years. Interesting to see it applies across the entire industry.

@tfadell My reason due TimBL is not based on tech, but the impact on changing society with the World Wide Web. Equivalent to the creation of the printing press and language.

[Kevin Fong @kfong]

@tfadell Unfortunately, you didn’t say good or bad disruptor. Let’s modify it to good only. TimBL?

@HillaryClinton From the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago: "The World is watching", more true today than ever.

If Senate Republicans fail to convict Donald Trump, it won't be because the facts were with him or his lawyers mounted a competent defense. It will be because the jury includes his co-conspirators.

@philliplarson @PresElectBiden @eric_lander @JoeBiden should have included the analysis on higher education in "Science, the Ended Frontier". Prior to the "space race", it identified the need for a highly trained work force. That essay is as important a road map today, as it was in 1944. https://t.co/FiLiXOWPEp

@philliplarson @PresElectBiden @eric_lander I have long been an advocate of what Dr. Bush's famous report has to say. I discovered an original when going through my late fathers collections from MIT, post-WWII. I highly recommend reading it and suggested such on a Quora last year.

[Phil Larson @philliplarson]

Letter from @PresElectBiden to @eric_lander — first Cabinet-level science advisor — great set of questions!
