This was something I took away from the memorial service for Jim Gray in 2007: he was someone who was always telling people they needed to write more -- and our discipline is better for it. So to pass it on: you (yes you!) need to write more.

I love twitter (obviously), but twitter threads are really not a replacement for spending time writing your ideas into long form. Twitter can sharpen your wit, sure, and grow your brand, absolutely, but if you really want to understand and teach you need to write more.

The problem is that solar panels generate lots of electricity in the middle of sunny days, frequently more than what’s required, driving down prices—sometimes even into negative territory.

This is surreal to me given we were months later to start and we still don’t have enough supply for anyone to immediately get vaccinated if they want it. Many people I know are impatiently waiting for their second shot appointment.

Just got thrown to the ground by right-wing anti-pedophile protesters as a crowd coverged on me and chased me. They threw water at me and screamed about Jesus and said to grab my phone. Police would not let me through the police line but after I got thrown on the ground they did.

so one of them pinged me this week and was like "you were so excited about your new tea set that I bought you a tray, sorry not sorry"

some context: I had an ex promise to build me a tea tray (and a bookshelf...table...chair) but never did

so I just used dinner plates instead

this pissed off my friends way more than it did me
