Hello Twitter friends, I'm officially looking for a new job in NYC or remote. I'm pretty good at typed functional programming (mostly in Scala) so, please DM me if that sounds like a good fit! Retweets would be much appreciated :)

I’m care you’re wondering how JDG script plays out: - write an apparently objective analysis on something - innocently dunk on the competitor (“IJ, Metals? Abysmal, they get an F!”) - use the dunk to promote something that directly brings money to its company

Someone has to say it: Elon Musk has lied for 27 years about his credentials. He does not have a BS in Physics, or any technical field. Did not get into a PhD program. Dropped out in 1995 & was illegal. Later, investors quietly arranged a diploma - but not in science. 🧵1/
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The University of Pennsylvania considers Musk to be a graduate of both the economics department and the physics department. "Elon Musk earned a B.A. in physics and a B.S. in economics from the University of Pennsylvania. The degrees were awarded on May 19, 1997." -Penn, 2019 snopes.com/fact-check/mus…

Love it when hundreds of volunteer hours discussing and debating trade-offs are boiled down to rookie mistakes!

So is @NYCMayor actually going to stick to his word and implement @TransAlt 25x25? Or is he just gonna pretend he never backed it?
Hey folks, there's only a few days left to donate to my @TransAlt fundraiser! Please consider donating with the link below if you can! NYC needs safe streets! runthisone.com/nycruns-brook…

A simultaneous 30°C anomaly in the Arctic and 40°C anomaly in the Antarctic, among the most terrifying events scientists have recorded, was a footnote in the bulletins. One celeb slapping another: headlines everywhere. This is the way the world ends, not with a bang but a bant.
