It's now been almost a year since the New York Times put together this technically impressive yet totally wrong interactive article about how long it would take to get a Covid vaccine.

I've rarely been bothered by the use of "he" as the generic pronoun so I wouldn't have predicted the genuine warmth and excitement I feel when "she" is used that way.

lord give me the confidence of a VC on Twitter making 11 threads per day about how to be a VC.

NYT: dark patterns are the techniques that companies use online to get consumers to keep subscriptions they might otherwise cancel Also NYT: if you want to cancel your NYT subscription, you have to call this phone number during our business hours & let us talk you out of it

I have special disdain for subscription-based businesses that make it hard to cancel. They’re peeing in the pot for the rest of us.

Last week, some folk were upset about Bezos' yacht. But did you know consuming a single average-sized cool ranch Dorito corn chip, you experience in seconds more taste than a human 1,000 years ago did in their entire life? That's right, we are all snack-time flavor billionaires.

Wow. This is unhinged. I’m literally looking at our voter registration database on my other screen. Right now. We can’t indulge these insane lies any longer. As a party. As a state. As a country. This is as readily falsifiable as 2+2=5. If we don’t call this out...

Happy 40th birthday little brother. We will celebrate 41st together at home, InshaAllah. #FreeAdnan

As someone who’s set up 5 new devices in the last week, my advice is to restore a new iPhone with the device-to-device transfer, not iCloud. Don’t worry if it says it might take a little longer. Device-to-device is better IMO because it moves over *all* your login credentials.

im continually pretty shocked at how much 'housing is expensive' discourse is dominated by anything other than "it's usually *illegal* to build more housing"
