@JetBlue Not only is your ticket purchasing busted on your site and app, you're leaking passenger data

In NYC tho, go to Chinese/Korean grocery for fresh foods and veggies, Japanese ones tends to be small and veggie price tends to be higher...(which I assume is another xenophobia that some customers love to buy plastic wrapped "clean" food)

Is there a more partially-read book in tech than "Godel, Escher, Bach"?

X: Have you read Godel, Escher, Bach?
Y: Yes. Well, part of it, anyway.

Retweet if you've read part of it. 😆

Easiest way to become an expert in something: have a CFP get accepted on a topic you only know casually.

@modernserf They should just tell people 5G contains fluoride and PDX would shut it down in an instant

[Seth Samuel @sethfsamuel]

Really impressed that @lyft has managed to recreate the same terrible taxi line at PDX they were meant to disrupt

Of all the technical debt you can incur, the worst in my experience is bad names -- for database columns, variables, functions, etc. Fix those IMMEDIATELY before they metastasize all over your codebase and become extremely painful to fix later.. and they always do.

Hey, how's this for autism 'awareness' month: some percentage of you who are reading this tweet are #actuallyAutistic and aren't aware of it.

I'm going to post a bunch of questions I wish I had been asked in this context, years ago. This is not diagnosis! But it's instructive.

This is really neat! You take a screenshot of an equation, it gives you the LaTeX code, you can directly modify in the taskbar, copy, paste, done.

@modernserf Pushes seem broken for me. Almost worth it after I got my first ad that looked like mail in Gmail

Dear Google Inbox,

I miss your material design.
I miss your bundles of emails.
I miss your done button.
I miss your GitHub previews.
I miss your highlighted emails.
I miss your bundled trips.
I miss snoozing emails.

Please come back 💔
