Many managers think a lot about how they treat their team, but few have a philosophy about those that leave it.

Growth hacks everywhere — and it’s about to get even worse

My first step towards untangling some legacy code that I don’t yet understand is usually trying to draw a diagram of how it currently works.Somehow @_______paul found these drawings of mine from @tumblr circa 2014 or 2015, and was nice enough to scan them for me ❤️ pic.twitter.com/i5qHnySZwV— Bryan Irace (@irace) February 26, 2019

Jason Koebler and Jordan Cox of Vice penned a blockbuster investigation into Facebook’s content moderation practices that’s worth your time. They interviewed “dozens” of sources, including several on-the-record conversations with Facebook employees in charge of their moderation efforts: The thing that makes Facebook’s problem so difficult is its gargantuan size. It doesn’t just have to […]

Casey Newton of the Verge spoke with content moderators who are employed by Cognizant but working on Facebook’s behalf: Collectively, the employees described a workplace that is perpetually teetering on the brink of chaos. It is an environment where workers cope by telling dark jokes about committing suicide, then smoke weed during breaks to numb […]

Blooms are 3-D printed sculptures designed to animate when spun under a strobe light. Unlike a 3D zoetrope, which animates a sequence of small changes to objects, a bloom animates as a single self-contained sculpture. The bloom’s animation effect is achieved by progressive rotations of the golden ratio, phi (ϕ), the same ratio that nature employs to generate the spiral patterns we see in pinecones and sunflowers. The rotational speed and strobe rate of the bloom are synchronized so that one flash occurs every time the bloom turns 137.5º (the angular version of phi).* Each bloom’s particular form and behavior is determined by a unique parametric seed I call a phi-nome (/fī nōm/). -John Edmark John Edmark is an artist, designer, and inventor. He teaches at Stanford University.

I think cooking for yourself is one of the simplest ways to create without any pressure for validation. Additionally, unlike art / design, cooking is ephemeral. No matter how good or how bad it is, it'll always disappear, either in your stomach or the trash.— flex luthor (@kwuchu) February 23, 2019

it’s not necessarily ‘discord’ - just think light and fast group chat. you all would love to be at the same bar debating and thinking aloud...you just can’t so replicate that level of casualness and velocity in a chat. tweets ain’t it— ryan dawidjan (@ryandawidjan) December 7, 2018

so many intense and lively twitter debates should just be held in an ephemeral read-only discord channela lot of real-time nuance, dialogue, and clarification are lost in these monster threads— ryan dawidjan (@ryandawidjan) December 7, 2018
