@KingShawn Without seeing the column, I'm guessing that the headline is a dramatic rephrasing of the *actual* question, which carefully avoided any sentences that would trigger self-awareness. The purpose of the rephrasing, of course, is to lure in readers who wonder how anyone could possible be so lacking in self-awareness. Then you read the actual question, and maybe the headline is a fair summary, or maybe not, but it's definitely clickbait.
I kept reading this article, thinking about how none of the apps seemed useful or interesting to me, and suddenly there was one of my most-used and favorite apps, right there: @overcastfm!

Imagine if governments made life better for people, instead of harder.
@eosfpodcast That entire series should be the #1 best seller. Her newer one, *The City We Became* is also incredible, and very different.
@eosfpodcast Those are some great books! And also some books. Plus a few I haven’t read yet. Not all the best-sellers are great, though.
@Adam_Cadmon1 It’s up there with Sunshine as a go-to for me. If I hadn’t already made plans to watch *Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon* later today, I’d have to… hmm… maybe I can watch both! 😀

For the last year I've been saying that the truly unique feature of the economy since Biden was elected is that we are creating jobs faster than workers. So you can imagine how pleased I was to see this chart in the Fed's March Monetary Policy Report proving the point with data.
@Adam_Cadmon1 Pitch Black is an *amazing* movie, though. It breaks no new ground, but is basically perfect, in my view. Simple and predictable and great.
Then, yeah, things got strange.
I definitely added a description to this photo, so I’m not sure where it went. The photo is of a partially-assembled brightly-colored jigsaw puzzle on a white tabletop

🤡Oh we're uploading charts about why teens are unhappy? And saying it's "the phones" or "the apps?"
Well, let me upload my charts!
Showing that:
* Black kids are online *much more* than white kids.
* Black kids have seen *much less* increase in depression since 2011.

@revdjenk I’m following him, not sure why I didn’t include him in a Follow Friday last month! Great stuff.

Hyphenated. Non-hyphenated.
The irony.
@asymco I’ve been driving a Fiat 500e (range: 84 miles) for a couple of years now, and we rented a car for road trips. Now I also have a Chevy Bolt EUV (range: 243 miles) so *some* road trips are more feasible, but I will likely still rent a car for very long road trips.
The “new car” is part of the trip experience!
@jjLitke 100% agree about trolls and other bad actors. The good news is that we’ll get quote-posts, it’s on the dev list now. Yay!
Clicking to see numbers is mostly a function of federation, hard to solve technically.
Search is both a technical federation issue and a cultural one, so I’m not sure whether that’s harder or easier. Would sure be nice, though!
@bart ugh, pass.
@bart @IceCubesApp is pretty great!
