Same! A native German speaking friend once told me a word I used (don’t remember which one now) made me sound like I was 80. I’d been using it in emails for years 🤦

They finally cut off my old Twitter Blue subscription, so I caved and got the new $8 one because apparently I can’t live without bookmark folders. Now I have a stupid blue check. I am ashamed.

Everyone loves that “first they came for” poem but no one seems to understand that it means that the best form of self-protection is investing in the well-being of people who are more marginalized than you are so that it never gets to the point where they come for you.

I have been making software professionally for 30 years, at companies of all sizes and growth trajectories. I have never once slept in the office. There is no reason to do this unless your data center is literal on fire. Please don't buy into hustle culture bullshit.

I love the reaction of cat lovers upon seeing a cat. Every single time the level of excitement is like they've read about cats for decades but never actually seen one in real life and they're SO EXCITED. Every. Single Time. Even if it's the hundredth cat they've seen that day.

Hiring junior engineers is *amazing*, but please, please, please make sure you have support systems in place for them to learn in a safe environment. Giving them psychological safety and effective teachers will help them set a sturdy career foundation to then build upon.

I will never tire of this website. Someone will say “i love spending time with my husband” and the replies are all like “WOW that’s great for you but I am ALLERGIC to BEES”

It was believed in medieval times that hedgehogs had spikes so they could roll over fruit to carry home to their children, which is not true but is a really cute idea

On January 1st, 2021, Brussels introduced a 30 km/h (18 mph) citywide speed limit. Within one year, overall speeds decreased 9%, collisions 22%, fatalities 50%, and traffic noise up to 50% (depending on the surface). Journey times by car were identical or even slightly shorter.
