- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@redoatz Nope, at least not a photo of me- it's Natalie Dormer as Anne Boleyn
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@AmandaAskell Probably. I also want a predictive dining scheduler- know when & where I'm gonna be hungry, pick the restaurant and order, and arrange a dining companion by coordinating with other schedulers.
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@__frye I wanna edit mine into hexagon but oriented with corners at top and bottom

- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@micsolana And this may seem nitpicky / contrived, but my concern is that politicians may pass overly broad laws against mandates and outlaw this scenario as well.
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@micsolana Consider neonatal nurse who refuses to get MMR- newborns can't be vaccinated due to age, nursing job requires contact that risks transmission... Imo a mandate makes sense in this case.
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@micsolana I am absolutely opposed to actual *force*. But if you want to enter public space, not live in isolation, I think we're balancing the freedom of the unvaccinated vs the freedom of others who'd be harmed by infection... Esp when vax prevents spread but some ppl can't get the vax
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@MeiselZachary @hyperboreanterf Nah, I think women want men who are at/above their level - *capable* of conquering- and yet emotionally mature and kind enough not to do it.
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · postChaotic Evil 🙈 https://t.co/nSNnaoVtgU
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@micsolana I'm in favor of mandates depending on the details of the disease & vaccine, but not in favor of widespread mandates for this covid vaccine... So pretty much I disagree with everyone 🙂
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@micsolana Imo mandates are a little short of "force" (which could mean hold you down and jab you without consent), so I think an absolutist position on them is wrong- what if the next pandemic has a 30% mortality rate? Or 90% odds of causing dementia and associated long term care costs?
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@michaelcurzi (admittedly, founding a startup might be worse, in terms of health & hygiene, but at least you'd have a product to brag about by the end of the year)
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@eigenrobot Yeah, feel like we need a bigger Mocktails movement so more restaurants offer fancy creatively-named drinks without the carcinogen (speaking of which- how is alcohol still legal in California?)
- Jan 27, 2022Twitter · reply@michaelcurzi Nope, absolutely not. Given my current financial status and aversion to the scenario, there is no amount I'd accept.

- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@growing_daniel Lol, a surprising % of techies are strongly attracted to the homestead farm lifestyle
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@zippkode @Noahpinion Pretty much- rushed fake intimacy to elicit goodies rather than build a genuine relationship.
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@vgr So, like, parasocial simps & haters?
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@Noahpinion Lol, def a thing in my college CS dept, but having an Igbo boyfriend it seemed wiser to keep any skepticism to myself 🤣
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@AnyaMartin8 @tszzl Lol, off the top of my head I remember Hausa and Fulani in addition to Yoruba and Igbo

- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@mycoliza @porglezomp @stephentyrone Lol really? In my (outdated?) view they're usually "semester long team project" which leads to teams experiencing the usual team failure modes and lessons learned? 🤷♀️
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@mycoliza @porglezomp @stephentyrone I feel like there's a sizeable "teamwork & social skills for nerds" in the obligatory software engineering course
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@ameicanQ @Mediaite @Acosta If he is, I find that living in a Soviet-style police state provides a pretty good quality of life.... Perhaps we should just let Russia have Ukraine?
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@KemonomichiNL @Noahpinion Eating poop is actually a legit medical treatment for certain digestive issues- resetting gut bacteria from someone with a happy gut.
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@Noahpinion College is a poor investment for the marginal student who doesn't finish their degree. Intentionally putting only non-white kids in that position is a way of perpetuating the racial wealth gap. I'd rather see "reparations" college grants for ppl w slave / native ancestry.
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@Noahpinion When the media does such a poor job of providing a representative view of news and trends, falling back to rely on personal experience is preferable to seething all the time.

- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@violetvariant As for why on 1. it's the landscape I grew up in and one that's hospitable to humans. Varied topography and some fields makes for more interesting views than flat forest. Oh, also I imagine babbling brooks running through the low areas.
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@violetvariant 1. Rolling hills and valleys, mix of forests and some farms 2. administer to my grandparents and some other family members without telling them what it is... Then keep it a secret for years while trying to save the 4% of the world's mammals that aren't human or livestock

- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@IoT_Apprentice @kelseyhightower 🤣 one of my clients is a Tier 1, so kinda imagining a mass depeering- all this legacy BGP bs, clearly not web3, who needs it? 😜
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@AlexGodofsky 🤔 Maybe working for my grandparents is why I separate family loyalty from business / legal matters- they treated work as work, on payroll and paying taxes... My parents are also my bankers- I see my mortgage as a contract and negotiated a lower rate when interest rates dropped.
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@AlexGodofsky Hm, I think different families are different. My mom and her sister raised us 4 kids together, those cousins might as well be my siblings... Then we lived with my dad's parents for awhile and worked at their family business... Idk, they all feel similar to me.
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@AlexGodofsky Oh- reading your definition of "family" maybe we aren't as far apart... When I say "family", by default I'm including like my third cousins and inlaws and etc, hundreds of ppl... Feel like loyalty to extended family over rule of law is how we get Hatfields vs McCoys
- Jan 26, 2022Twitter · reply@AlexGodofsky @eurydicelives If my spouse murdered someone (and I found the evidence convincing), I would testify against them if asked even though not legally compelled. Ofc I'd also be seeking a divorce but even in the meantime. Maybe why I'm still unmarried..? 🤔
- Jan 25, 2022Twitter · reply@AlexGodofsky Hmm... Agree to disagree. My DNA is in ancestry DBs, if this causes a genetic relative to be convicted of a crime I would be happy to see justice served (and I say this as someone with a relative in prison rn).
- Jan 25, 2022Twitter · reply@AlexGodofsky Definitely in this case, but there's a limit somewhere short of serial killer I think?
- Jan 25, 2022Twitter · reply@mroranjewortel @bryan_caplan Oh also Facebook is a worldwide product & for children - many of whom don't have convenient online payment options. Also fake / bot accounts I suppose...
- Jan 25, 2022Twitter · reply@mroranjewortel @bryan_caplan Imo need to account for the aggravation of managing another subscription- risk of hassle of cc info getting hacked, updating info whenever you change cards, hassle of initial setup, of cancellation, of reviewing recurring charge on cc statement, further loss of privacy...
- Jan 25, 2022Twitter · reply@whitewolf_works Yeah, the one other element I'd add is light exercise without strict goals- ideally a regular walk in a park with a friend 🙂
- Jan 25, 2022Twitter · reply@whitewolf_works These are all things that have helped me a lot, unlike talk therapy... (Obv I'm not good about the "no phone before bed" but the rest...) As you said, sounds promising!
