It's 2021. Why do we still spend so much time in bad meetings? 🤔 We're building a better way to meet. It's called Callout. It's super simple. It keeps everyone in the know. And it tames your meeting deluge. You can get a sneak peek here: ai2incubator.com/callout/ 🧵🧵🧵

Chadwick was really out here shooting all of these huge action movies while fighting stage 4 colon cancer. Man. Strong isn’t even the word.

Seattle police pepper spray, gas and flashbang peaceful protests for the third day in a row. @MayorJenny should be ashamed of herself and everyone involved. #seattleprotest #BlackLivesMatter

I’m constantly surprised how many companies out there balk at spending any money on design while simultaneously spending a tonne of money on an in-house dev team to build and rebuild the same thing over and over because nobody actually knows what they are building or why.

Over Labor Day weekend I put up a site to analyze #twitter users, identify bots, & delete their tweets (and ads). Tho not announced hackers started attacking by Tue. Last night they found a bug (thx!) but didn't get in. It's just a honey pot tho, not the real thing. 1/6

Sen. Feinstein just offered an amendment requiring terror suspects to undergo background checks for gun purchases. It failed 45-54.

Design thrives on constraints, not on trends. Flat may be appropriate but can never be a premise. Neither can bevels, motion, faux 3D.

Sick of standing in lines or seeing people stand in lines? Oregon & Washington have %100 by mail voting, it works damned well.
