Awesome to see @sophiebits talk about introducing React at @khanacademy in the new React Documentary! https://t.co/iyVRQzjrpm First user outside of Facebook - amazing how far along React has come!
I've been really enjoying Mastodon, a good group of folks using it! Here's my account where I'll be posting more: https://t.co/iMdDmkaj63
I've also written up some rough notes about what I've learned about Mastodon so far and how it compares to Twitter: https://t.co/kkzMl5uEEX
I'm trying to re-follow everyone I can on other social networks, but the prospect of re-building a fascinating online community is, frankly, overwhelming. I hope when the dust settles we can all find each other again!
In 2013 or so I realized that my Twitter experience was an echo chamber and I went out of my way to find people who weren't like me. Artists, historians, scholars. People who are LGBTQIA+, folks from other walks of life. It completely changed my world view.
I remember joining Twitter in early 2007 - I delayed as I was building a Y Combinator startup that was doing mobile-based messaging at the same time in 2006 and was jealous/didn't want to be influenced. The startup couldn't get funding, so I broke my "feud" and signed up.
Also, having 250k+ followers is both a blessing and a curse - incredible to contemplate, but also makes tweeting a near-impossible proposition. I'm hoping that Mastodon may yield a better audience? https://t.co/iMdDmkrUuD @jeresig@mastodon.social Let's keep in touch on there!
Even though I don't post on here that much, Twitter has had a profound impact on my life. I've met so many amazing people and it's dramatically changed my world view, for the better. No idea what the future of the site is, but I'm so glad we got to spend some time here together!
What Node.js GraphQL headless CMSes do folks use? There are a lot: https://t.co/jkzoXWT5yv https://t.co/R9iehdjgqJ https://t.co/9wCeyaIOZN (and more) Any with full-text search baked in?
If you’re in the US, don’t forget to vote today! I early voted and was lucky enough to get an amazing “I Voted” sticker due to a contest here in Ulster County! https://t.co/2tFwwcSenX https://t.co/GQg7IS0CBR
Not sure what services everyone is using/moving to but I'm also on Cohost: https://t.co/WU5aLTtV9c Mastodon: https://t.co/iMdDmkrUuD and Instagram: https://t.co/OYRylQlsFi If we're mutuals please tell me where I should be following you!
Alt: The above video depicts a young barred owl eyeing the camera, itching itself, and flying to another branch. @nellshawcohen managed to get an even better photo through the binoculars! https://t.co/DsGenihbqp
Saw 3 juvenile barred owls on a hike today in @mohonkpreserve, near the @Mohonk mountain house. They were eyeing us and squawking, turns out it’s the noise they make when they’re hungry! https://t.co/wvZzDK1oVL
Got to visit @EdwardTufte’s Hogpen Hill Farms yesterday - such a great experience! So many cool artworks spread out all over the grounds, fun exploration. Definitely worth a visit! https://t.co/4mTB6JSy7o https://t.co/S92DzAYWqZ
Captured coyotes on the trail cam! We can hear them yelping at night, first time spotting them, though! https://t.co/XIKPpL6dJ5 https://t.co/1o4R7QdHC5
Finally managed to catch a fisher on my trail camera! https://t.co/Dhl7GLnn6n It seemed to be interested in an old gourd I put out… https://t.co/Ey7vhhtmNi
This role is still open! If you're interested in working with me and a great team on some fun problems with an audacious mission, please apply! https://t.co/PDwS0kxufs
Github Copilot continues to be the wildest thing I've used during development. It improves my test writing by at least 10x - and I'm still shocked by cases like this, where it guesses the output format right and even generates multiple translated strings! Even with no context! https://t.co/Yl33QWlhTs
I'm hiring a new Senior Mobile DevOps Engineer to join the Frontend Infrastructure team at @khanacademy! Work closely with fellow mobile engineers and own our build + release pipelines. Distributed team, US + Canada only. DM if you have questions. https://t.co/PDwS0kxufs

I heard a strange bird(?) last night in the woods where I live in the Hudson Valley. No bird ID app can identify it, anyone have an idea? (Video unrelated, turn up the audio!) The calls were about 15s apart. It has a whistle sound that’s very unlike most owls… baffling! https://t.co/8vWKXOjF5K
