SEVERANCE though

I've never had to stop doing fiberglass repair because it was too windy before. #ONStorm

Should I show myself on Mastodon, or wait once more 'round the sun? Will it crack the skye in popularity, or be hushed and grim? Will Twitter go down in blood and thunder, leaving Elon as the emperor of sand? I have questions. #MastodonOrMastodon

For folks on (or moving to) Mastodon, I'm @[email protected] there. For folks who prefer the other Mastodon, my favourite song of theirs is Blood and Thunder.

Sick of people calling everything in crypto a Ponzi scheme. Some crypto projects are pump and dump schemes, while others are pyramid schemes. Others are just standard issue fraud. Others are just middlemen skimming of the top. Stop glossing over the diversity in the industry.

So far, Mastodon looks pretty underwhelming. The value of my Twitter feed is in the folks on it, and most folks aren't on Mastodon. It looks like the other Mastodon is touring with Opeth, but it's too soon to go back to in-person concerts with a big crowd.

Four controversial, but time tested methods for product engineering. 1. Don't do branches, but do trunk based development 2. Don't do pull-requests but allow commits on trunk. 3. Tests don't waste time, they allow you to get more time in future. 4. throw in pair-programming

Crypto is the new Flooz.

With the recent disruptions on Twitter, I'm not around here as much as I used to be. You can find me on LinkedIn, or on Mastodon at @[email protected].

The Twitter meltdown is distracting me from fully enjoying the FTX meltdown.

At this point, you have to ask whether Mr. Super Tech Genius With a Very Real Physics Degree actually knows anything at all about modern coding.

People telling that you should work day & night completely go silent when you ask for a percentage of their companies 😂

A trans friend of mine said that after Twitter stopped banning trans harassment, it took only 12 hours before she started getting death threats. Do we have Free Speech if bullies are allowed to make people afraid to speak?

Elon Musk: "Vox Populi, Vox Dei." Okay, you're on. Hey, Populi, should Elon Musk change his name to "Doris Dei?"

The The Washington Post features a story today about how to join #Mastodon: washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll.
