They don't burn witches to get rid of the witch. They do it to control all the women forced to watch the fire.

I'm just so dang tired of a transportation system that routinely creates chaos and expects everyone to just deal with it, perfectly, every single time.

Today I had to choose between following the letter of the law and keeping my kid from unwittingly riding into a likely deadly situation. I chose the latter, got yelled at by a very angry lady, saved my kid.

And then we had yet another conversation about how our roads are designed as if everything is always perfect even though we know it's not.

When XKCD describes the #urbanism movement like this, it starts to feel like the winds of society are changing.

My own story is a bit different, but then I don’t live in the US. My home town of #stockholm is pushing bicycle infrastructure forward with every year that passes.

Never quickly enough, of course, because the traffic increases outpace the city infrastructure: we have actual bicycle traffic jams at some points. xkcd.com/2832/

Ok, now it’s leapt forward 20 years. No idea what the logic is.

I asked Siri to play Digging in the Dirt by Peter Gabriel on the HomePods, and it’s now following up with a whole series of songs from 8th to 10th grade.

Did you know that it used to be legal to fire women for not wearing pantyhose?

The "clothing according to biological sex" people want to bring back the laws that allowed that.

If a colleague (especially one early in their career) has done great work and you spot a prize/award they're eligible for, nominate them for it. It'll take you a few mins, but could make a massive difference to their CV.

Set up new phone
Transfer old watch automagically
Then setup new watch
It should bring everything over and allow you to restore from watch backup then.

Watched the Barbie movie again, that film is just so great - the jokes land so hard, plus the musical numbers are even more fun the second time you see them

@twostraws Well don’t forget the biggest feature... Debugging now actually works on the Apple Watch 🤯

Combine that with the new design language and SwiftUI being introduced and I feel like we might see a resurgence of Apple Watch apps.
