my favorite adversarial feature of Raymond Chen is that nearly all the "screenshots" on his blog are actually meticulously crafted hunks of css. i don't know why he does this, but I assume that - like much of Windows - it's because it's Correct in inscrutable ways

Being explicit in your preferences is futile when socmed platforms doesn’t want you to know something. How Tiktok content differs between Kharkiv (Ukraine) and Belgorod (Russia), 80km away from each other but worlds apart.

俄罗斯的别尔哥罗德，距离乌克兰的哈尔科夫只有80公里。记者分别用两地的 IP 地址注册 TikTok，两个帐号会看到同样的内容吗？https://t.co/N7F41UM5Dg

Everyday I worry about my Ukrainian coworkers. Some left their homes… some lost their homes.

When we have not heard from them in days, we can only hope they’re headed to safety.

Sometimes they pop back to attend meetings while there’s bombing outside their window 😭

Last week: “I’m still alive”, said a teammate suffering from COVID.

This week: “I’m still here”, said a teammate stuck in Kharkiv.

Ok guys, work should be the last thing on your minds.

@tztzel “Are we going to meet our deadlines?”
“Maybe yes, maybe no”

[Wendy Kong @wendko]

Hm. How do you talk about the impact of ambiguity to your teammates without being ambiguous about it? 🙁

[Jaana Dogan ヤナ ドガン @rakyll]

Not sure why this still needs to be said, but adding more people is not a way to fasten projects with a ton of ambiguity.

What do you call the stage of your career where you are so burned out you don’t even have the energy to feed your imposter syndrome anymore 🤡

You spend so much time building your mental models but do you spend enough time on your mental health 🫂

2021 retro:
- I had been both too much of and not enough of an asshole. Score: 💚🖤🖤
- I’ve made many excuses but I’m better at admitting it. Score: 💚💚🖤
- I didn’t die. Score: 💚💚💚

2022 challenges:
- don’t be scared
- don’t take things for granted
- don’t die

[Wendy Kong @wendko]

My 2021 challenges are simple
- Don’t be an asshole (including to myself)
- Don’t make excuses
- Don’t die

[Wendy Kong @wendko]

@Jeffrey04 Hope you fail one of your resolutions
