If I'm critiquing your design and I see hanging punctuation anywhere, I've already jumped to the conclusion that you pay attention to even the finest details.— Cameron Moll (@cameronmoll) July 21, 2022
This is your annual reminder that your choices for watching THE WIRE are:A. A ropey SD transfer from the early 2000s in 4x3.B. A nice HD transfer in 16x9.Now, one might conceivably say "but Devan! What if it looks better in 16x9? It's wider! More Baltimore!" Well... pic.twitter.com/6LWE6TlBlN— Devan Scott (@SadHillDevan) August 26, 2022

A stunningly written, heartbreaking and in-depth account of the inhumanity of the data and machine learning embedded in the foster care industry: where it shows up and how it’s used to perpetuate wide-scale family policing under a veneer of legitimacy. https://t.co/m3dgJmlIL7— Karen Hao 郝珂灵 (@_KarenHao) August 26, 2022
The massive heat wave & drought China is experiencing may end up being the worst in recorded history. But turn on the corp news & it’s barely mentioned. George Monbiot calls it The Great Silence. It’s a failure of communication that can’t be rivaled by anything in human history. https://t.co/px9Qe2r74A— Adam McKay (@GhostPanther) August 24, 2022
Yes, get me Netflix on the line. Her name is Raïssa Kengne. The two men she killed were her former employers. She went to work for them reported fraud and negligences she found and according to her they made her life a living h*ll. She sued them at the beginning of this year. https://t.co/5oXp9ob80q pic.twitter.com/e1Y6yKChm9— Terry THIERRY (@TerryThierry) August 23, 2022

“I think about how The Iron Giant was a MASSIVE flop at the box office, but still became a household name because DVD sales shot up after repeat airings on Cartoon Network. That's never happening again.”

Steve Troughton-Smith on Twitter - fixes for stage manager in iPadOS 16 beta
I think my preferred way to fix window placement/resizing on iPad’s Stage Manager is to not do any of the ‘smart’ repositioning or grid-snapping when interacted with via mouse/trackpad. I get how that could be nice with finger interaction, but I do not want it at all with a mouse— Steve Troughton-Smith (@stroughtonsmith) August 20, 2022
Autism is genetic so a lot of moms won’t notice differences in their children, “your just like me when I was younger”. Lots of communities won’t notice either because the behaviors are prevalent in said community.— liya🦄 (@aaliyahmeeseeks) August 19, 2022
Interestingly, the app was first dubbed “Find my Family”. Management (read: Steve) found the entire idea of location tracking deeply creepy. It led to a very long design process with dozens of beautiful and wacky app concepts to make it less… stalky and more friendly.— Sebastiaan de With (@sdw) August 20, 2022

COUPLES: I am writing about the joy and mundanity of long term relationships. The shared socks, conversations through toilet doors, inherited cousins, shelves, potato bodies, sex scheduled like dental appointments and familiar meals. Tell me: what’s great about the long haul.— Nell Frizzell (@NellFrizzell) August 17, 2022
swami sound (back in the day soulecta dub) on Twitter
NYC is gentrified snd segregated as hell, specific crowds in manhattan don't mesh with the tastes of some brooklyn crowds, gigfinesse is monopolizing venue spaces in lower manhattan and paying horribly, and the BX is left with geographical stigma and sporadic DIY scenes https://t.co/COUB3U4zFw— swami sound (back in the day soulecta dub) (@swamisound) August 16, 2022
