When I retire I just want to someone to pay me to get a PhD in philosophy with a focus on the impact of technology on existentialism and human agency

Can confirm the entire city of Atlanta is currently just one big housing construction site.

Some of them saying DEI cocaine and I—

The Margaritaville resort I stayed at in Gatlinburg had the overhead rainfall, regular, and detachable shower heads and you could flip through different combinations to use the one(s) you like. It was incredible.

One of my teachers was in tears when me and this white dude I ran cross country with stopped saying the pledge. I don’t even think we had a real motive at the time except to be contrarians 😂

This was when I first truly realized that most adults were not smarter and more mature than the youth. I had my suspicions, but this was the first real confirmation for me.

When there’s a disconnect between engineering, solutions engineering, and sales, the customer suffers. When the customer suffers, the business suffers because eventually the customer leaves.

“I tell myself I bear witness, but the real answer is that it's obviously my programming.”

Even with the disclaimer 13% will take inspiration from Quan Millz

Had to go to Marietta and while I was up there I found this incredible Kenyan restaurant called Jambo Grill ATL. 10/10 highly recommend

This was supposed to be a conference recap post but it’s really about the impact of our work. melaniecrissey.com/blog/who-is-...

“All of us, by tapping into our inner reserves of personal will and undiscovered talent, by visualizing what we want, can achieve, and deserve to achieve, happiness, fame, and success… We are all entitled to everything”.

Hella detentions but never suspended.

I hate evangelists. Go enjoy your religion without forcing it on everyone else weirdo.

The U.S. debt crisis is a real problem but I’d love for everyone on this app to please stop amplifying Ray Dalio. He is a perma bear who has been “predicting” major crises every year for decades. And if you read the book The Fund you’ll learn he’s also an insane megalomaniac.

It was like this in Decatur! The store was practically empty with more items out of stock than in stock. First time ever seeing Whole Foods like that.

I’m innocent 😇

This question made me think of that Atlanta episode

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you? I’ll be rescued. RIP to my abductor.

If the Knicks end up hiring Doc Rivers I might really die laughing

"Maybe this'll be the year." #wwdc

When this topic comes up with respect to black people who fear doctors or modern medicine I always suggest that people read Medical Apartheid by Harriet Washington. While I believe in trusting science, I also understand there are significant and valid reasons for the doubts.

You might have entirely too much faith left in people 🥹 Most will do anything for attention or money so this doesn’t surprise me at all.

There is construction everywhere in south Downtown ATL. Can’t wait to see how the revamp turns out. Looks promising so far

I searched Spoutible on here just to see if anyone mentioned still using it and boy oh boy is this my type of tea 🍵 $130k would barely cover one experienced US based developer so that’s alarming

Doechii speaks out against use of the military against protesters in LA during her acceptance speech at the #BETAwards

When I hear about AI democratizing software, I can’t help but think about how streaming played out. So many options led to friction so people just rewatched The Office 10x. If AI tools lead to the same paradox of choice in software then people will fall back to Google, Microsoft, etc for simplicity.

Haliburton, as called in: Brazil, France, Iceland, U.S. (in Spanish), Albania, U.S. (ESPN Radio), Indianapolis, Oklahoma City, the Netherlands, Türkiye, Canada, and Croatia:

Old white people always say my name correctly because they still love that Dinah Shore lady

There’s been an increasing number of people reading my name as deny-ah and I think I hate even more than dee-nah

There was a video on YouTube years ago about how he was on some island running a sex cult. Not surprised by this news at all.

Saw a group outside walking wearing full suits in today’s 87° heat. That’s a level of dedication I simply don’t possess. Probably why I’ll wind up staying in tech forever.
