What is the best site(s) covering the modern, best of breed, technology stacks broken down by industry/size/stage of company? Both for product development and to just run the business (whether online or retail, B2B or B2C)
Small tactic I’m using these days on Twitter - instead of clicking on a link in ad here I take a screenshot and if actually interested I go direct to the business (after researching further) - fewer and fewer ads being shown are even marginally targeted but…
The need for stories like this as rebuttals to bad pieces in the NYTimes makes me rethink my (digital) subscription. One I keep because alas there are too few news options left. Sad that such rebuttals are needed and indeed furious
Really proud to have this piece on the site today and furious that @theisen95 had to write it: defector.com/how-many-trans-…

The Twitter debacle is at least partly explained by Karl Popper's 'Clouds and Clocks' theory. I wish it was more widely understood, so here's more.

Fantastic thread that echos a lot of what I have tried to tell people. This administration has been and now will continue to be exceptional even if the media narrative rarely gives them credit

A BOATLOAD of Clark County Ballots - 5K - in the Las Vegas area STILL need curing for signatures. You really need to track your ballot to ensure it was accepted. Here's how to do it from your phone.

Clark County has an easy guide to help cure your ballot directly from your smartphone: ⬇️
the ads I'm seeing here on Twitter in the last few days are almost entirely spam/scam ads promoting sites that seem questionable at best (not clicking on anything so can't confirm entirely) but clickbait content & a far cry from the ads of a few days ago (on my same account)
if there are any parents in your life who don't usually file taxes, check with them and make sure they do (assuming they are US taxpayers) - the Child Tax Credit is a key program that helps especially lower income parents
7⃣ days left to claim the #ChildTaxCredit (CTC).
Even though the tax season has ended, almost all families qualify and can still get their money! Submit a simplified return at GetCTC.org through November 15th.
Read this headline. Then reread it. And again. This is a headline today, Nov 9th, 2022. Not from a century & a half ago. Voters did not, in all states, REJECT SLAVERY... let that sink in. We as a nation have a lot of work to do. nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/slav…
glad I went to the home and school club (our version of a PTA) meeting tonight instead of just doom scrolling all evening - and relieved that young voters came out in big numbers & Dems are doing far better than many were predicting

I've been saying this for a while. Community. Building community, connections and infrastructure. Learning from each other. Helping each other out. Reaching the jaded, fed up and apathetic. People do when they have a reason to do.

I think this is always true, but true now more than ever. Join a union. Organize a union. Talk to folks in your community. Build community safety. Join a community garden. Start a mutual aid group. Join a community organizing collective. No matter what happens tonight.

Friends, meet Cora Brown Murray Duke Kenney, Charlottesville educator & civic leader.
She was one of 132 local African American women who paid their poll taxes & registered to vote in 1920, immediately after the ratification of the 19th Amendment.
Be like Cora. Please vote.

ALT The black and white image is a three-quarter length studio portrait of an elegantly dressed, light-skinned African American women. She wears a black overcoat and a large black feathered hat. A white blouse and necklace can be seen under the coat. The woman seems to be quite calm and self-possessed.

Thank you to every member of our community and every grassroots supporter for entrusting me with the great responsibility of representing NY-14 in Congress.
We do this with small dollars, every time. I remain grateful to all of you who make a new kind of governance possible.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a Democrat, has won re-election in the 14th District in New York. nyti.ms/3G0M2cI
threads like this are what I will miss if/when I leave Twitter - read this, and think about how you can help the people, especially kids of color, in your life stand up and be their best selves
