Single words for values are seductive because they have deep meanings. But, because they have deep meanings, you’ve little assurance that everyone has the same definition. (“What is love?”)— Sean Rose (@seanrose) October 22, 2018

Check out @mbrandonw's talk on how reducers compose, which covers how you can build up with a big ole "appReducer" out of all the smaller reducers in your code base:https://t.co/VFkcZyVxrr— Stephen Celis (@stephencelis) October 20, 2018
“@cocoaphony Right. I'm not opposed to methods, but there's a giant class of operations that do not have a "primary" object that they're acting on, and simply make more sense written as free functions because of this.”
”I know that the “Ph.D in 4chan” comment is a joke, but seriously, people who study the language of online harassment are invaluable. I know some anti-harassment researchers and I admire their work. It’s not easy to comb through the hate to make t
“I know that the “Ph.D in 4chan” comment is a joke, but seriously, people who study the language of online harassment are invaluable. I know some anti-harassment researchers and I admire their work. It’s not easy to comb through the hate to make the internet a better place.❤️”
“You should worry about the potential damage that can be done to your business if something were to happen because not enough people were knowledgeable or had the right tools to do their job.”
I was thinking about how happy I am when I get the kind of praise I need. It doesn’t make me feel smug or complacent, it makes me feel strong and empowered and like what I’m doing matte…
“There is no such thing as a bad estimate in regards to pointing to a story. I'm not even sure if there is such a thing as a good estimate. Use retro's to speak to inefficiencies/bottlenecks/miscommunication. Stop worrying about the damn points.”
What does OLED black smearing look like? In this example, the dark grey square seems to be lagging behind the light grey square, but they’re locked together. (Needs to be viewed on an OLED screen.) pic.twitter.com/WYFEXKAvsG— Marc Edwards (@marcedwards) October 20, 2018
“But what happens if I can learn to measure love’s effect, and this love, which feels so real, doesn’t register?” “Reading this, I can’t help but think of those late-night phone calls, the easy seesaw of our conversation, our shared laughter. Also, the ways our bodies move together like practiced dancers, improvising to the same song. We, too, find shared rhythms easily.” “Does recording our sex occur to me? Of course it does. My urge is to clamp a hand over the mouth of that thought, much as, for many years, I used to clamp my hand over my own mouth at orgasm to stifle the sound. If I can hardly bear my own autoerotic sounds, how will it feel to hear those made in the company of my lover? Consider the mild discomfort of hearing a recording of your voice on, say, a voicemail. Multiply that discomfort infinitely. My lover has told me that I am noisy at orgasm (which she relishes), and though I suspect she is right, I have never heard myself. I am happy for this deafness. Some things I don’t want to notice, to reflect on, to consider.” “With her, more so than with any lover before, I follow my pleasure without fear of shame.” “My lover nods. This is news to only one of us. “I guess it’s not out of character,” I say. She shakes her head and smiles. When she turns back to her reading, I sneak a look at her while feigning interest in my work. I want to memorize this moment—sunlight dappling the floor, her long legs crossed at the ankle, the small rasp as she turns the page of her book—in which I feel utterly at ease, able to share my delight in multiple things with her: my strange study of our lovemaking, the recorded fact of it, her total acceptance and actual pleasure in this obscure corner of reflection. If there is a test, it feels like we have passed it. This moment, alone, is different. It is full of things I had not known before.”
“I couldn't help but feel that what that photographer saw was so wildly different from how I saw myself.” “Somewhere in the grayscale, we didn't look so off against white skin.”
"Moonmoon is an example of the linguistic process of reduplication, which is often deployed in English to make things more cute and whimsical. In the pure form of reduplication, you get words like bonbon, choo-choo, bye-bye, there there, and moonmoon but relaxing the rules a little to incorporate rhymes and near-rhymes yields hip-hop, zig-zag, fancy-shmancy, super-duper, pitter-patter, and okey-dokey. And with contrastive reduplication, in which a word repeats as a modifier to itself"
“The analogy I'm thinking of here is a group of people sitting working at their computers. Every so often, you look up and look around you, sometimes to rest your eyes, and other times to check people are still there. Sometimes you catch an eye, sometimes not. Sometimes it triggers a conversation. But it bonds you into a group experience, without speaking.”
