@BaseCase Casey!!! I’ve wanted to go back to school to learn design for over a decade, too. Huge respect. Congrats!!

Wait, how is Thanksgiving next week already?

I kind of like it when people trash talk LA so badly to me then find out that I’m from LA. Not in a mean cynical way, but because it shows their genuine authentic side.

@Tarnbull Yeah my 9 years of sleep, weight, and body fat percentage data is held hostage 😭

[yuko @yukotakagi]

Since I got an Apple Watch series 8 I've meant to switch from Fitbit Versa3 as soon as I figure out data import/export, but of course that time never came and I just look like a tech bro who wears 2 smartwatches on both wrists

遠慮なく「専門•技術職」にしておいた

サンフランシスコ領事館、対応が丁寧なのはいいけど出生届まわりの例を更新してくれないかな。出生証明書の親の出生時の名前欄を「父の氏名、母の旧氏名」と訳すのも、父母の職業欄の例が「父の職業 専門•技術職、母の職業 無職」なのも、昭和のステレオタイプすぎない？

「婚姻届を未提出の方は、出生届とともに婚姻届の届出も必要です」も謎。なんで？？未婚で子どもを持つ選択肢どこいった？

I didn’t know you could go to https://t.co/Pl5uhPecCC to see your kindle highlights from the browser. Pretty handy.

This normally freaks me out but I've reached the point where I'm content about it

[yuko @yukotakagi]

So there’s a name for the phenomena I’ve been wondering where you get 80% of the output after putting in 20% of the input: Pareto principal

A lot of times unlearning is harder than learning

I still hesitate hard to attend conferences in person anytime soon, but I’m glad and grateful I’ve gone a lot in the past several years. I’m so good at using company’s money 😎

Oh noes

[Strange Loop Conf @strangeloop_stl]

Maybe I just like riding and operating vehicles. If I was so filthy rich I didn’t need to work, I want to be a forklift operator. Which reminds me that I *have to* go to Dig This in Vegas soon.

[yuko @yukotakagi]

I admittedly enjoy driving but I don’t want to live in a city where cars are the only practical option for transportation. Even in Bay Area I feel like only East bay and SF meet the criteria

[yuko @yukotakagi]

East Bay, especially Oakland / Berkeley / Emeryville area, is so bike friendly it’s one of the top reasons I love living here
