Living the serverless dream: Christmas Day 2021, when everybody who has bought a Roomba since Black Friday opens them in about a four hour window on Christmas morning, was completely hands off keyboard for us. Literally nothing needed to handle the massive influx of traffic.

if by “cis to trans” you mean “trans but closeted and in denial, to out”, then pretty hard i think. 😌 #TransIsBeautiful

How hard did cis to trans hit you?

Sometimes I zone out and don't listen when people are talking, and then when it's my turn I say, "That's very Kafka-esque." No one knows what that means, but they won't admit it, so they just nod.

the most important thing about the log4j incident is that it’s clear and incontrovertible evidence in support of whatever beliefs i already have about software development

Y’all really think schools shifting online are the sole factors driving youth mental health decline? Not mass death, the casual selfishness of the adults in their lives, the prolonged stress of pandemic life, the flip-flopping of politicians who wield power over their lives..?

Name something people have strong opinions on, but actually know little about.

Abortion. How can terminating a pregnancy be murder when we don’t actually know for sure when life begins? People are so uninformed about the many, very serious medical reasons a pregnancy should be ended. They ignorantly assume it’s a just a lazy form of birth control. Wrong!

Sunrise from Cairo. The view outside our hotel is IMMACULATE. Great pyramids off in the distance.

Over Christmas, I've been talking about time in quarters and everyone has been like, "??? why are you talking like that ???" 😂 Also, I've just started writing down some of my personal intentions for 2022 and I cannot think of a better way of organising them. This is me now 😂

people always give me shit for speaking in terms of quarters but honestly 3 month intervals are a very convenient way to count time!!!!

My parents think I’m a loony lib for thinking about a heat pump for the new house. Boomers grew up in the era of cheap energy and it was easy to ignore the crisis they got us into. What I can’t understand is ignorance of the mounting evidence and that in the end efficiency wins

Ppl complaining about anything and everything cause its 'annoying'. Lifelines rez shield got taken away cause it was 'annoying' when in reality it wasn't OP and was easy to combat against with the right legends. And we still get Gibby who has a better rez shield than LL.. 🤦🏻‍♀️

They’d be pointless if this was the way they worked.

Knockdown shields needs a nerf. Instead of the Knockdown being deployed immediately, when activated it starts off really small and grows bigger to become a full knock down shield that we have now. So people cant just immediately spam shields and switch directions. Just a thought

TikTok now has a pronouns field, very closely mimicking the Instagram implementation. I am… surprised.

there's something to be said for making some software to do something, calling it done, and then not updating it except maybe to fix things that break "move fast and break things" startup culture has leaked HARD into open source personal software; no commits this year = ""dead""
