@dathanvp I did this program a few years back and decided to create my own push-up tracker. Maybe you’ll find it useful. https://t.co/kYwAuVpeKy

@hyumankind The hard part about being in a rut is not being able to see out of the rut. You have to trust that there is something beyond. And as counterintuitive as it sounds, connecting with others will help you feel better.

Timeline occasionally flickering. Chaos everywhere. Feels like I’m holding a tower of pickup sticks in my hands. No quick movements..

I wish I had a more artful way to say this, but Elon Musk is a giant piece of shit. He shouldn’t be in charge of running a local Kinkos, much less Twitter.

Elon Musk weighing in on Russia/Ukraine since he is an expert in failed takeover attempts

No disrespect to the product design team at @joinoneapp - it takes a lot to steer the ship. This garbage smells of top down dictation of experience. Someone doesn’t understand their customer base. What a waste.

[Ryan Kirkman @ryankirkman]

I am so disappointed/livid by what @Walmart did to the @joinoneapp. Completely gutted core functionality. Rolled out changes that effect bill pay etc without so much as an email beforehand. Who is even on your PMM team? Which product manager did you hire out of college? Trash.

- Pockets no longer have virtual credit cards
- debit card only pulls from one pocket now
- app is much slower
- etc

@gilespn @spotifydesign Congrats!

@beccanalia @odannyboy I can’t help but wonder if we need more focus on swaying the elected body of the DNC.

I nearly cried after hearing the ruling. The degradation of basic civil rights for some is the degradation of rights for all. So many will suffer.

@davidhoang Depends. Is it deep house or dubstep?

[Ryan Kirkman @ryankirkman]

@EmiolaBanwo Isn’t that like half your lifetime? ;)

[Ryan Kirkman @ryankirkman]

That first month is like one really really long day.

@iamharaldur I’ll be finished when my home resembles a villains lair from James Bond.

[Ryan Kirkman @ryankirkman]

But the tension we’re all feeling is pretty clear as well - a growing divide between ideologies. What causes this?

[Ryan Kirkman @ryankirkman]

Wether it’s politics or product development, there is no replacement for research. #research #ux

What’s interesting to me is that congressional republicans started out more centrist than democrats 50 years ago.

@jazzy33ca Woof?
