    I would tell you the number of times I’ve screwed up this stupid lace section, but it would just make @randomknits and @knitterjp laugh more. (READING PATTERNS IS HARD.) 😩


    @randomknits @knitterjp The Rav page mentions which chart is which. I finally nailed it on like my sixth try. ✊


    @randomknits @knitterjp OH FFS I MISSED A GODDAMN YARNOVER ON THE LAST ROW.


    @randomknits @knitterjp I’m leaving it.


    @randomknits @knitterjp I hate lace.


    After a day trying over and over to accurately knit an 18-row lace pattern into a parallelogram, this thread really resonates. Last weekend I spent coding. The coding was way easier. https://t.co/MbTMuStvWr


    Oh what a day! What a lovely day! (LACE VANQUISHED.) 💥🌈 https://t.co/uUM95Cz6DT https://t.co/5VRYJSDfMu


    @Alegrya Fiberfest 2018 shawl from @KnitGuildNSW, but modified as a scarf.


    RT @tlakomy: Advice for conf speakers:

    When someone you care for is speaking, sit in the first row. Be there for them. Laugh at their joke…

    @tunaranch I’ve been using @TheOldReader pretty much since Reader went away, and I’m happy with the UI. It’s the loss of the community that I had built up in Reader that’s irreplaceable.


    @StokesXandra My husband half-joked last night that I should start charging consulting rates for any who wants to pick my brain about Yet Another Women in Tech Initiative. It’s getting to that stage.


    Very cool event that will be of interest to some of you! https://t.co/Tqk9gwByce

    RT @iamnotyourbroom: I don’t use Twitter much these days, but I’m popping back briefly for this.

    I finally got around to writing down some…

    My first Alexa skill went live (Roald Dahl trivia!) so I scored a sweet new hoodie. 😊 https://t.co/9WbAtW5o4O https://t.co/rCw298rifQ


    @frankarr @mattallen Uh, I am the Queen of this Club. Have I not shown you my ridiculous contact management system that I had to develop so I could search people based on arbitrary attributes (like “the guy with the eyebrows”) because I can’t remember their actual names anymore?


    @frankarr @mattallen PS neither of you are the guy with the eyebrows.

    @DrNemski @frankarr @mattallen Yes. It’s called @FullContact. Still requires a lot of pruning to keep it useful though!


    @bartlorang The hardest part isn’t really anything you can help with – it’s making the time to add in my notes on new contacts. Maybe a way to find all contacts *without* notes? Prompt me to provide it for recently added contacts while it’s still fresh in my mind?


    @bartlorang I also tried out Cloze and liked how it gave me a single view of all contact with a person. (I just didn’t like all the CRM stuff around it.) That would be a pretty significant request though I’m guessing! 😂


    @bartlorang @lioromano For me, the context isn’t meetings with invited guests so much as conferences and meetup groups. I need some sort of AR glasses. 😂


    We need a “Days Since Kris Has Bitched About Google Reader’s Demise” counter on the wall. It doesn’t often get above 30. (Currently sitting at 0, fwiw.)


    A plea: ask for permission before you introduce Person B to Person A, especially if you know Person B is going to immediately ask Person A to do unpaid emotional labour.


    @StokesXandra Oh, I know. And if they ask, I always say yes. But it’s rude not to ask.


    @imdominating Jesus. Glad you’re okay.


    @johnallsopp Same. Same. Same.


    Always amused when a story from The Australian is the top shared one on @nuzzel. At least it saves me from clicking on it… 😂 https://t.co/izMTI0MimM
