I'm hiring a new Privacy Engineer for The Washington Post. It's a full-stack position for an engineer with good communications and documentation skills, full time. Reach out via Keybase with questions.
A wise man sees failure as progress.
A fool divorces his knowledge and misses the logic,
And loses his soul in the process.

Happening now! I'm chatting chip shortage stuff and Oddly Specific Objects with @ishotjr and Make: Magazine for the launch of their Volume 83! https://events.zoom.us/e/view/hGDrHcWJRA2ysz3Sr9621Q
The holidays are an awkward time to get a new job; my onboarding got pushed back and it totally makes sense to do so.
Hopefully time to spend in the shop and working on the house.
Honestly this break has been good for me. Resting has been nice.
Today is a wonderful day to tell someone how much you appreciate them.
(Not me; I already got one today.)
Don't wait until it's too late.

So I'm finally watching the new Wednesday series on Netflix and it's fantastic.
I'd forgotten just how much I adore the character; dark, sarcastic, witty, and more than a little dangerous.

A little chilly out but I'm getting my steps in today:
What goal are you making progress on today? Let's celebrate our efforts.
It's been awhile since I reminded you that I love you.
I love you.
Please take care of yourself and each other; it's rough out there.
We're not alone; we have each other.

It's 10:25 AM Eastern and I'm glad you are alive.
Remember that you are worthy. You are worth the effort.

if you haven't taken this already and identify as trans, please think about finding 90 free minutes or so - it's tough, but important
pro tip, grab the tissues beforehand
Today is a complicated day for many people for many reasons.
I hope it goes as smoothly and as well as it can for you and yours.
Be patient with yourself and each other.

☄️Asteroid impact predicted with stunning accuracy☄️
On Nov 18, the Catalina Sky Survey detected an asteroid on collision course with Earth.
Although the 1m rock was harmless, it triggered the test of an automated system designed to warn humanity of a more dangerous impact.
Within hours astronomers calculated that it would hit southern Ontario on Nov. 19 at 3:27 am EST.
At the predicted time, people across the region saw the bright trail as it blazed across the sky.

Happy #FibonacciDay to those who celebrate! 🐚✨
We love finding the #Fibonacci sequence in nature and in #maker projects — like @jasoncoon's #electronic #art! 🤩
Where else have you seen cool examples of Fibonacci in action? 👩🔬🔎🍥
It's 9:34 AM Eastern and I'm glad you are alive.
Thank you for being here with us.
You're worth it.

Anyway, let me say without qualification that Nazis are, in fact, bad.
Save your denotational semantics for something more interesting.
