it still kills me that we were all like ok we'll totally disrupt our lives and do everything we can for three months while the government gets it together to pay us to stay home and the government spent three months to get around to just saying maybe you should all just die

A note to media folks: If your newspaper or outlet is no longer covering the *enormous* BLM protests because they're peaceful now, question why the news business fetishizes blood and violence and ignores racial justice movements otherwise.

Must be weird for the maker of QR codes to finally see them being used by people.

Wow... the headline was intriguing, but the payoff was beyond my wildest expectations

if lesbians can control themselves when girls are wearing revealing clothes but guys can’t maybe the problem is not the clothes

I want to make a site called Amazoff where you type in anything you would normally buy off Amazon but instead it serves up independent local businesses in your area that sell the same or similar products.

We've officially changed "Blacklist" to "Blocklist" and "Whitelist" to "Allowlist" @ConvertKit. Blacklist and Whitelist are email industry-standard terms that need to change. I hope others will do the same.

If you see the terms anywhere on site/app/KB, @ me so we can update.

Git was made to replace bitkeeper; so I assume that's where "master" comes from and yes it comes from "master and slave repository" https://github.com/bitkeeper-scm/bitkeeper/blob/master/doc/HOWTO.ask#L231-L232

Pokemon Go has lasted longer than the confederacy did and with three times the Americans behind it, you're lucky they only took the statues down instead of replacing them with Pikachus

106 days I don't set foot on a plane- probably the longest time spent land-bound in the past 15 years.
I do miss seeing my audiences, hard to gauge whether a joke has landed if all you see are your own slides- but truly blessed to work for a company remote friendly by design:)

all gen z do is drink iced coffee, donate to BLM, tip 20%, call out racist relatives, eat hot chip, and radicalize

not only do some of the pairs stupidly duplicate basic services, i've heard it breaks some gis workflows because the centroid of the township is in the borough :) better do your label placement right!

Just in: After some significant brand confusion around HBO Max and all the other HBO apps, WarnerMedia is officially "sunsetting" HBO Go and will rebrand HBO Now as, simply, HBO.

At Hulu, we used to distinguish between "Originals" and "Exclusives" to denote which shows we'd funded and which we'd just gotten the rights to.

At some point, everyone in the industry just started calling them all Originals in their marketing. No idea why.

5) Incubation Fund: How do we fund and foster more internal innovation?

1)Thriving at @Okta : We've done a ton of work to adjust the company strategy and tactics to make sure our team is doing well through Covid-19, Remote Work, Racial Inequality. We've got more to do though.

I know it's a small step. My plan is to change all the repositories under my control. I invite you to do the same. Alternatives can be "main," "primary," or "production." And, let's call on platforms like @github @gitlab and @Bitbucket to use better terminology.

This would be the most 2020 thing ever.
