I'm honored that @statnews invited me to publish my thread as a slightly more nuanced opinion piece (including new details such as the striking differences in hospital beds per capita btwn US and S Korea). "Simple math offers alarming answers" on #covid19: https://t.co/GBLEjrLYA1

Is it better to solve problems in isolation or by collaborating with others?

The best solutions come from "intermittent collaboration" -- group work punctuated by breaks to think & work by ourselves.

maybe we should stop calling side projects “side” projects. They are not just a “side”, they are what that keep our souls alive.

Q: Should everyone learn to code.

A: "No. People should learn to think"

As of today, the "like" button is an outdated concept. @SlackHQ replaces "like" with any emoticon you want. http://t.co/Xb8MpsW1nR #ux
