Couldn’t be more honored and humbled to read these words from a woman I admire so deeply.

This post really resonates with my experience, seeing different teams here effectively (re)building the same product, per platform. The JS world has some really nice things. (thanks for the writeup, @[email protected] !) https://ashfurrow.com/blog/learning-from-other-programming-communities/

Huh, I don't think I ever shared video of this demo I built for the Zeit React Meetup before: an Apple Music UI clone built in rndom, with a big focus on mimicking the UI & transitions.

(7/7) more about black holes and other subjects I am passionate about -- including space, being a gay astronomer, Ursula K. Le Guin, architecture, and musicals. Thanks for following me, and let me know if you have any questions about the EHT! 😀📡🕳️

B2B IPOs are HOT:
- PagerDuty
- Zoom
- Slack
- etc.
B2C Not So Hot:
- Lyft
- Pinterest
- etc.
I mean, if you'd said this even in 2015, YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN LAUGHED OUT OF THE ROOM FOR REAL

(1/7) So apparently some (I hope very few) people online are using the fact that I am the primary developer of the eht-imaging software library (https://github.com/achael/eht-imaging) to launch awful and sexist attacks on my colleague and friend Katie Bouman. Stop.

(5/7) out that this was a team effort including contributions from many junior scientists, including many women junior scientists (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10213326021042929&set=a.10211451091290857&type=3&theater). Together, we all make each other's work better; the number of commits doesn't tell the full story of who was indispensable.

“Sometimes I joke, “Moby Dick was written by one person.” Three of [Herman Melville] probably wouldn’t be much faster. Software is a lot like that. Without understanding what you’re trying to do, adding more people will actually slow you down.”

SCIENTISTS: “We’ve produced the first-ever image of a supermassive Black Hole, 55-million light years away”
RESPONSE: “Oooh!”
SCIENTISTS: “We’ve concluded that humans are catastrophically warming Earth”
RESPONSE: “That conflicts with what I want to be true, so it must be false”

Black holes were considered theoretical not that long ago, and now we're staring one in the face. Incredible. https://twitter.com/ehtelescope/status/1115964692802019328

Once upon a time my boss asked me to study if we should use C++ or Erlang for a specialist XML parser to be used in a product (for reasons of speed not energy).
My recommendations was an FPGA
We built an FPGA.
Relative speed of C++/Erlang was irrelevant compared to FPGA. https://twitter.com/joeerl/status/1115988725111169025

[email protected]@twitter.com notes an important turning in the culture: a growing "refusal by an increasingly class-conscious society to let corporate wrongdoers donate and philanthropize their way out of being called out for their profit-seeking sins."
