Had a fascinating conversation about AI with @GantLaborde at breakfast before #RenderATL day 2. If you're at the conference, check out his talk on using AI in React this afternoon!

Pushkin Square, maybe less than 1000 meters from Red Square and the Kremlin, is the cite of a significant protest. These people know the risks of challenging the regime. They’re on the street in-spite of major personal costs.

@RobGalbraithLS @fatcats4byron @everylotphilly @everylot_usps Yeah it's really good open source documentation! Working on getting some of it set up now 👨🏻���💻

@TheBuffaloNews Why is this the headline after Brown refused to debate before the primary and then sorely lost? Why not "Democratic primary winner agrees to debate write-in candidate"?

[Brandon Lewis @BrandonNewsTV]

99% of precincts reporting, Walton leads Brown. Pretty emotional moment for her.

HOLY SHIT IT HAPPENED! Was putting together hour estimates for a bid, used a ratio, and then realized I needed to solve for x and y in the *Real World* 🤯

x+y=172
2y=3x

Honestly feel extremely satisfied from that

@JawnValjawn @danikamcmurray_ Best app I use is @paprikaapp
- in-app browser can download any recipe
- gets the ingredients, directions, photo, etc saved to a recipe gallery
- can select which ingredients to be added to grocery list that even sorts products by aisle/section
- meal planning/calendar stuff too

There's a HUGE amount of money coming at legacy modernization. How do we spend it right? We're about to have our Kill It With Fire Moment. https://t.co/yVb4UDNSCj

@harshitagirase Love that idea! I'd be interested!

We are recommending a pause in the use of vehicles out of an abundance of caution. Risk of dying from cars is 10,000x higher than any rare treatable blood clots from J&J. Sitting & driving long distances (like for vaccine) is a risk factor of blood clots in the normal population.

As of 4/13, 230m+ are US drivers. CDC and DOT are reviewing data involving 42,060 reported US cases of a common & severe type of death in individuals involved in traffic. Right now, these events appear to be extremely common with 1 in 106 chance of dying in traffic collisions.

[U.S. FDA @US_FDA]

As of 4/12, 6.8m+ doses of the J&J vaccine have been administered in the U.S. CDC & FDA are reviewing data involving 6 reported U.S. cases of a rare & severe type of blood clot in individuals after receiving the vaccine. Right now, these adverse events appear to be extremely rare

My family received another letter in the mail today, this time disguised as a Passover card. Sharing this out again. Love trumps hate folks, it’s not hard to be a kind person ❤️

@Max_Kalnitz I'm sorry you and your family are being harassed by such a hateful person

This may surprise friends but I'm a strong anti-oxer. The real science says these "free radicals" and their Big Oxidation funders have been killing us bit by bit for centuries and they just can't keep getting away with it!

@harshitagirase A good winter hat!
