    Thank you @googledownunder for today’s Doodle. As a newer Australian, I’d never learned about Mum Shirl before. What an amazing person! https://t.co/76K3RQ3Wsf https://t.co/2ivyjkhlBG


    OH EXCELLENT. @TweetDeck now supports image descriptions for accessibility! ๐Ÿ‘ https://t.co/41SLfYFp4P


    Fascinating. Listening to latest ep of @nbcthegoodplace podcast, and writers’ process is 14 ppl each with monitors but only one keyboard. It’s basically #mobprogramming! @WoodyZuill


    @FakeSamRitchie @unixbigot Nice job!!


    @FakeSamRitchie @unixbigot I am confused by the pallets.

    @lynnlangit @allPowerde WHAAAAAAAAAT. Okay, definitely many get-togethers in our future over that time!


    @FakeSamRitchie @AndyDentPerth @unixbigot That’s why I sew. Much quicker return on investment!

    @purnimakamath @coderkungfu @vbhvsgr Heading back to Singapore on Monday for the week! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ


    @purnimakamath @coderkungfu @vbhvsgr Will be in training every day, the whole time. Might be free on Tuesday or Thursday evening, but I reckon that’s about it. (I’ll also be back two weeks later for the week of the 23rd! ๐Ÿ˜ณ)


    @lostumbrellas @diversionary @mobywhale @msharp Induction cooktop, I’m guessing. Although I didn’t realise “Death Star” was a current trend in kitchen style! ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Oh. Discovered there’s a “Message Requests” screen in Instagram. There’s where old army dudes message me about my beautiful profile. ๐Ÿ™„ (Another one to add to your privilege pockets, @gilmae.)


    @i386 The. Worst.


    @i386 I MEANT YOU


    We stayed in Gillette last year for the eclipse. It wasn’t remotely full. We didn’t see any people of colour. This guy seems like an ass. https://t.co/G5EIIOtVk7

    @UNIHACKMelb @unihacksyd Oh no! Thatโ€™s no good. It should be kris.howard at gmail…


    @UNIHACKMelb @unihacksyd Thanks for the bug report! I redirected the domain recently – will investigate. ๐Ÿ‘

    @lindamciver @sauramaia @FCTweedie @datakid23 Well, when I burnt out I went to manage a knitting shop. Small family owned business where I fit in, where my tech skills were appreciated, where I got to interact with customers and help them solve problems, where I didn’t stress about keeping up with every new thing.


    @diversionary Hm. @the_snook and I do the NYT crossword every night. ๐Ÿ˜ Are you guys *sure* you’re not related?


    @lindamciver @sauramaia @FCTweedie @datakid23 The only problem is that it was physically a lot harder and it paid a lot worse. Only went back to tech because we got a mortgage.


    Dear Blockchain Rando: No, I don’t want you to LinkedIn message me with an “update” on your tech that I didn’t request. On the upside, hey, I get to remove a connection!


    @mobywhale @hannahyanfield WTF does “slelegant” mean?! ๐Ÿ˜‚

    @OphelieLechat I read that too! I’m torn. I like the convenience but I reckon I’d get bored.


    @martinabbott It’s a lot easier for guys to get away with that.


    @gilmae Exactly! And add on there “Blow dry your hair so you don’t look feral.” One of these days I’m going full Furiosa, I swear.


    @dougrathbone I’m only in week 2! Too many services to learn. ๐Ÿ™‚ But thanks…

    @mattallen @OphelieLechat Yes, that. Honestly, I struggled with whether to wear makeup this week. I donโ€™t normally, but studies have shown that it LITERALLY results in ppl thinking women are more competent. ๐Ÿ˜ก


    @mattallen @OphelieLechat I decided in the end to bring my โ€œwhole selfโ€ to work, which has grown progressively more casual each day. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Laziness FTW
