.@ATT your CSRs are so nice and personable (I had a lovely convo with one about charcoal vs propane grilling this 4th) that I can't understand why you would force me to fight w/ an AI agent b4 reaching them. especially since the AI misinterpreted my "cancel" with "transfer" 1/2

.@ATT i'm sure it was a bad connection on my end and not an instruction to the AI to emphasize transfers over cancellations. I'm sure it wasn't... 2/2

This is silly. Bro, I assure you, writing an explicit return type for my functions is not slowing me down. It doesn't even make it into the "Other" category of "Jacob's List of Unoptimizations" I've spent more time wording this tweet than I ever have on explicit typing

TypeScript rule: The stricter we are, the safer we are. But safety is a tradeoff. It’s not free. Excessively strict typing rules may slow us down more than they help. Example: Requiring explicit return types on every function improves safety, but is redundant and takes time.

Just say you want to use `any`. Or that you want to go back to JavaScript

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.) To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!

Word of the Day (because it’s about time) is ‘respair’, from the 16th century. It means fresh hope, and a recovery from despair. One of too many lost positives we could do with bringing back. Wishing everyone a gruntled, gormful, ruthful and feckful New Year, full of respair.

Surreal scene as the police freeze and stare off into the distance as the star spangled banner plays while they wait for trash trucks to destroy the remaining property of poor people.

RIP Bob Barker. Like many 90s kids, I watched The Price is Right during the school summer months and when I was sick and needed to stay with Granny. Truly a great host. I didn't see this clip broadcast myself, but it's certainly my favorite moment of his youtube.com/watch?v=8lAJZMF8…

The Price is Right Stupid Perfect Bid
