This episode we continue our coverage of STS-51L by examining what actually happened on the flight, as well as the proximate cause of the accident. This is a difficult episode, but STS-51L is part of our history and it is important that we understand and remember it. #STS51L 1/3
The Sprite ad before I watched Lighthouse tonight was Christmas themed. Come on it's not even Halloween yet, stop this encroachment

A few words on why Gaetz stunt to storm the SCIF to disrupt Laura Cooper's deposition is a VERY serious national security problem.
Note, I worked in that SCIF for HPSCI and handled cybersecurity issues while there.

Painstakingly is pains-takingly, not pain-stakingly. As in, to take pains to... not whatever the hell pain-stakingly is. This has been a personal epiphone.
The @mountain_goats subreddit is putting lyrics over relevant Seinfeld scenes. It makes me happy i.redd.it/0md2k6ql2ja31.jpg
Google: "Use @Polymer, it's v1, it's the platform!" *3 mos later* v2 use that! Even Youtube uses it (v1 though) *3 months later* v3 is out! Oh, btw NONE of your v1 code is compatible. *3 months later* "fuck Polymer, it's all about lit-html, use that! trust us!"
Just interviewed an intern who is a junior CS major and had a quite good GPA which means they were doing well in their classes but they just knew absolutely nothing through no fault of their own. Best I can tell the professors just gave students code ...
... then told them to shove it in a Java main class, and passed the ones that ran. Example: they had a "security" class that taught them how to use wireshark, but they didn't know how even the basics of how HTTP worked ...
#GoogleIO2019 @mathias Very excited for FinalizationGroup, will be more excited when there's a nice abstraction. That's a lot of boilerplate when memoization is so common
Nearly every slide for browser support in the #GoogleIO2019 What's new in Javascript talk has Safari grayed out. Nice to see absolutely nothing has changed in Safari's horrific support for modern JS.
