Lit the Hanukkah candles in our new home today and it feels odd, but also immensely good be in a whole new… place. I’ve lived in San Francisco for 12 and a half years — I moved yesterday, and it felt momentous. Couldn’t be happier in Santa Cruz.
Oh yeah! iOS 16.1 makes it easier and more intuitive to set a home screen wallpaper. They are now peers rather than Lock Screen being the main and the Home Screen secondary.
@RedGregory1 Thank you for all your wonderful work, @RedGregory1! 🖥️🤩 Some podcast recommendations: @atpfm @funfactfm @nosuchthing @Ologies @RelayFM (especially @cortexpodcast - SO good on productivity)
@funfactfm love this podcast, makes me laugh and I also learn so much, been listening since the beginning, don't change a thing. Re-listening to episodes from 2018 since I've forgotten everything. On the Disneyland trip at the moment. 🥰
This was such a fun conversation!
Ep. 54: Unicorn Blaster funfact.fm/episodes/54 Allen lays out a wine scheme, @antichrista explains the wonders of temporal resolution, Allen checks in on creatures' dangerousness, and we learn a couple things about George Orwell.
@carolinesyrup 100% agree with @Jobvo & @tsellhorn about @Unmade_FM & @cortexpodcast 🌟🌟(2 of my all-time favs -- and you know how much podcasts mean to me!) And here's a few I'm not sure if I've recommended to ya' before (if that's possible! 😁): @Ologies, @funfactfm, nosuchthingasafish.com
Have you ever wanted to see what it would be like to read English with Hebrew vowels? 😉
@funfactfm as an ISO8601 evangelist/enthusiast it was devastating to hear you say "No one in common practice uses year first." There are a few of us out there who use the one true date format everywhere we can: YYYY-MM-DD
@funfactfm Hi guys, my name is debbie I don't know how to use twitter this is my first time, but I wanted to say how much I love ur show, don't change a thing. I'm listening on google podcast Im on epi 19 and u guys are so much fun to listen to. Keep it up 😍
@funfactfm In the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (which, it may be noted, is a Commonwealth), the purchase of Chef hats are non-taxable. (refer to PA REV-717)
@funfactfm I was writing out a whole tweet about writing checks (re: 101) and of course in the last 30 seconds, you got there. 😅 Please accept this vote for more check facts.
Not that y'all need more fun facts @funfactfm, but The Oatmeal has a great writeup about six-sided marsupial poop: theoatmeal.com/comics/wombats
🥲Today was my last day! Working on a new product here was a once in a lifetime experience and I’m so grateful to have collaborated with so many kind, capable people across the company.
It’s a wonderful feeling to help make something that will make life better for millions of developers! Building it took a lot out of me though, and doing it all during a global pandemic didn’t make things easy. I’m taking the summer to re-charge and then I’ll see what's next!
It has come to my attention that many of my readers are not familiar with the term “’tocks”. My editor felt enough people would be familiar with this abbreviation of “buttocks.” They were wrong, and have been sacked. As reparation, please accept these fine ‘tocks
