He lives in #SanFrancisco. He writes code. He encodes and decodes. He loves everybody.
Nick's Labyrinth
I continued my morning exercise walk past Laberinto Verde: floreciendo and in amongst some trees I bumped into a new-to-me labyrinth. And when I search the web for it, I don't find anything. I guess this #SanFrancisco labyrinth isn't just new-to-me, but rather plain ol' new. If you head into the park southwest some tens of meters from the Lincoln Blvd & 25th Ave entrance, you can spot it: Nick's Labyrinth. It's not totally obviou…

A few weeks back, I blogged a picture of the #SanFrancisco road mural Laberinto Verde: floreciendo. It was hard to figure the mural out from my picture; it's a big mural on the ground; so my on-the-ground picture was kinda an edge-on view. Today on my morning exercise walk, I walked past that mural again, but this time I noticed the bluff overlooking the mural; the mural is ~under Prayer Book Cross, which is up high. So I walked on up and took some pictures.

@SasquatcherGeneral At the time things were happening, people really did think Twitter was helping. The US gov't really did care about when Twitter would go down for maintenance. And that was news.
It wasn't until later that scholars more rigorously figured out who was using X kind of communication for Y purpose. By the time they'd drawn some conclusions, Arab Spring was no longer news.
A while after Arab Spring, scholars figured out that Twitter didn't really help the movement happen. Twitter _did_ help folks in the USA find out what was happening. So, not useless, but not _nearly_ as useful as rumored at the time.
But Jack Dorsey kept talking about how much Twitter helped, ignoring the people pointing out that it wasn't all that.
I learned this only after I'd been working at Twitter for a few months. It was pretty disillusioning.

@doctormo There's a code-search tool Kythe. https://kythe.io/ . It requires set-up and stuff; AFAIK it's not built into any code storage thingies.
@stefanhayden @darius is it too late to compromise on "poot"
