There's others, but these are easy structural templates to follow.

Nobody will remember:
- Your salary
- Your fancy title
- How ‘busy’ you were
- How stressed you were
- How many hours you worked

People will remember:
- The giant monoliths you have erected to your own majesty

Reminder that Thomas Jefferson who helped write the Declaration of Independence also said we should rewrite the constitution every 20 years so that dead people wouldn’t rule over modern society.

Fireworks are a microcosm of many things in America. People decide "my fleeting enjoyment of this loud, shiny, potentially dangerous thing is more important than your combat PTSD, your fire danger, your terrified pets." Selfish isn't a strong enough word.

🇺🇸Happy July 4th to America where cops are a corrupt occupying paramilitary force with unlimited budgets, qualified immunity to break any laws they are supposed to uphold, who do more harm than good and should be abolished and the funds redirected to social support programs.

The leadership team at @MissionCloud has been discussing forming an alliance w/ other companies that care about human rights to make a dent. We don’t want to sit idly by or tell people that their only recourse is to vote.

JFC. Any security advice that requires abortion-seekers to become Jason Bourne is not advice--it's just opsec masturbation. Keep it simple. Keep it actionable. Keep it directly relevant to existing threats.

Are you “burned out” or are you having a reasonable reaction to a never-ending barrage of bad news which you can do very little about.

The Supreme Court voted 6-3 today that you don’t have to file that Jira ticket, you can just send the problem over Slack

Come ooooon :) you don’t want to miss an opportunity for another superspreader event, do you 😛 and perhaps they have an Indian pizzeria in Philly, too 😂

ME: please show me the files that are newer
COMPUTER: thats too hard. heres some files i think are good. Do you like this

Felt spicy this morning when our property management company sent an email telling people not to crowd the (8) racks in the bike room (for a 40 unit building).

The other day I added up that a “typical” video takes somewhere between 17 and 20 hours from start to finish.

Very few free products would make that amount of time worth it.

A free product to make a video!
Sweet, just gonna plan the video, write everything down, spend time shooting the b roll, shoot the talking head, reshoot some stuff, spend a bunch of hours editing the video, shoot the thumbnail, do the SEO, and then we’re done!
