Leadership, digital strategy, civics, writing, speaking. He/Him. “Don’t mistake kindness for weakness” and other rules for work and life.

"If you're not on board with AI you're going to get left behind"

Boost if you'd like to be left behind and would consider paying extra for a life without this bullshit.

3k boost edit: everyone who said a variant of "why should I pay" is right, but the world is wrong.

I think the most "sustainable" design practice is making things that people will love and cherish.

Nobody fixes or maintains something they feel "meh" about. They just throw it out.

@b0rk plaintext / markdown is literally the only thing that has ever worked for me for todo lists. I have tried a lot of apps! Nothing, for me, beats the flexibility and ease of a text file. So, go you!
“Painting by Chagall”. What a great song title. (Also great song.)
“Being good at your job doesn’t mean you don’t make errors. It means you’re great at recovering from errors.”

English physicist and chemist Michael Faraday was born #OTD in 1791.

Faraday discovered that a changing magnetic field could induce an electric current in a wire, laying the foundation for the concept of the electromagnetic field. He formulated the fundamental laws of electrolysis; he was the inventor of the Faraday cage and he discovered the Faraday effect.

Michael Faraday - Wikipedia

asking for a friend: if you learned trigonometry as an adult (especially if your goal in learning trig was to be able to better make games / art projects), what resources helped you?

especially interested in answers that not everyone has heard of (like khan academy etc), open to answers that involve programming

[please only reply if you learned (or had to re-learn) trig as an adult]

My beliefs are simple, and hardly radical: Libraries are critical infrastructure. Access to information is a human right. When you buy a book you should truly own it. When a library buys a book, they should be able to lend it. Readers should be able to read without any third parties spying over their shoulders, or preventing them from accessing the materials they have legally obtained.
