New profile pic? 😂

Pretty stoked about the stickers going out to people who completed the 20 in 2020 savings challenges on the OMD forums! Little different then I planned on at the the beginning of 2020 😂

Screenshot for posterity:

I really love posting straight from iA Writer now that micropub is fixed in Known. It's beautifully simple.

How, in the 21st century, do home electronics makers still think that "these random set of lights blinking is an error code you must look up in the manual you no longer have" is acceptable? How does *any* product designer suggest that and not get fired on the spot?

"This might be a complicated question, so here's a yes/no poll for the uninformed masses to settle it"

We've learned nothing since 2016, literally nothing.

Never use a free app without knowing how they make their money.

At my last job, a team put up a poster for their reusable components. It said:

“We made a thing from scratch, so you don’t HAVE to make things from scratch.”

But when engineers read this, they see:

“We made a thing from scratch, so you don’t GET to make things from scratch.”

Robinhood: "let the people trade!"

People: *trade*

Robinhood: "no not like that"

Time for another live show… this time, it'll totally work!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I'll be showing off the @Hollylandtech Mars T1000 Full-Duplex Intercom System, and @aaronpk is going to be live switching the show remotely! What could POSSIBLY go wrong… 😬 https://jal.bz/2YsqbUE

I’d still prefer for it to just go straight to the system browser as I’m usually already signed in there so it’s faster.

Robinhood is no longer allowing users to do anything but close out their #GME or #AMC positions. Hard to put into words how outrageous that is. This is, much more acutely, the definition of manipulating the market.

Hedge fund managers own yachts with heli-pads because they shift imaginary money around in spreadsheets all day while people who do real work struggle to pay the rent.
