Not yet perfect, of course, especially since we are still planning on building a semantic analysis portion, and a few other bits of the spec itself! I am really quite happy and proud of the progress made so far, however!

The API is coming together nicely as well! Here is an example of grabbing a field definition from a parsed document:

We chose to model a lot of the parser internals after @rust_analyzer (🙏🙏🙏), using Rowan and Ungrammar crates when working with the syntax tree. I am super happy with how it's shaping up so far and how everything is fitting together!

The thing I've been working on for the last few months is finally public! We at @apollographql have been building a production-grade GraphQL parser in Rust from scratch.

do you remember when Netflix re-cut 13 Reasons Why to have suicide warnings and PSAs because people told them it would directly translate to real-world teens harming themselves?

I want this surfaced; TRANS people made “Disclosure”, NOT @netflix. And it’s director confirmed that they only paid half of the production cost to rent it.

@netflix only cares about having the perception of being pro-trans, not actually BEING pro-trans.

That’s LOW.

@AcabEvery @StopTweetingMia It's important to note that Netflix didn't make or produce that documentary. Trans people did. Under the leadership of @SamFederFilm

Netflix distributed it after it was finished.

Also, it's not unheard of for folks to leave a company and then come back to the old company to get an even bigger raise than they would have if they had stayed at the company.

I've spent the past 3 days nose-deep in JS tooling again and holy shit it's hard to write really nice, abstract tooling in 2021, when you have to take into account any of like a thousand package managers, all sorts of build/bundler tools, and an ad-hoc build process overall???

@labornotes The Deere strike in particular is about:
--> Corporate profits against stagnating wages
--> Decades of two-tier and concessionary contracts coming home to roost
--> A member revolt against the status quo tacitly endorsed by the status quo
--> Tight labor market and the pandemic

From a salary worker @ Deere:

"The Deere "strikebreakers" are currently ~650 salary employees pulled from engineering & mgmt positions across Deere. Note: I say "Strikebreakers" because I can guarantee that with our lack of skill and numbers, we will not be breaking the strike."

Of course, this doesn't work in many types of work environments, and it's a privilege to be able to do this. But in my experience, integrating work and life in this way enables me to be a better parent, and a much happier, more engaged CEO.

@joelle_emerson ("Joelle Emerson") replied to a tweet by @joelle_emerson:

Or if I respond to email while I'm on PTO, what message does that send my team, and how can I proactively communicate that this isn't an expectation for others, but rather a choice I'm making?

@joelle_emerson ("Joelle Emerson") replied to a tweet by @joelle_emerson:

Creating a healthy culture of work-life integration isn't easy. It also takes pro-active norm-setting and consistent communication - if I'm going to be offline at a pumpkin patch on a Tuesday afternoon, how does that impact my team?

@joelle_emerson ("Joelle Emerson") replied to a tweet by @joelle_emerson:

At the same time, I may respond to emails on while I'm on PTO - there may be something exciting or important happening, and I may welcome the break from parenting to get to jump into something I'm engaged in at work.

@joelle_emerson ("Joelle Emerson") replied to a tweet by @joelle_emerson:

What does that mean for me? If my child's preschool has a visit to the pumpkin patch in the middle of a Tuesday, I'm going to block my calendar and go! (As I got to this week :)). If I'm feeling exhausted because I'm 8 months pregnant, I may cancel a 2pm meeting and take a nap.

@joelle_emerson ("Joelle Emerson") replied to a tweet by @joelle_emerson:

For *me*, this means starting with an understanding that work will sometimes interrupt life, and life will equally interrupt work. For me, creating artificial boundaries between these two things isn't just impractical, it's impossible.

@joelle_emerson ("Joelle Emerson") wrote:

I know it's not always a popular opinion, but I completely agree with this. The myth of "work-life balance" sets many of us - especially ambitious people with caregiving responsibilities - up for failure. I'm a big believer in the concept of "work-life integration."

@CNN wrote:

"Work-life balance is a lie," said TIAA President and CEO Thasunda Brown Duckett. When she tried achieving a more balanced lifestyle, Duckett said, "It never reconciled."

So instead, she tried to live her life more like a well-diversified portfolio. https://cnn.it/3oYam6Q
