@cwebber @andrewrk I've been learning Ukrainian for fun (fairly not useful to me, picked it because I learned some czech as a kid and wanted to learn a language that used cyrillic script; took years of Spanish, Japanese, Latin) and an unexpected side effect was making me happy at how great the internet is! Wiktionary: free high quality etymology info (& a free offline use phone app)?! So many online free / cheap resources from native speakers!

@cwebber @andrewrk

Very much appreciate your sharing. I'm way past my programming days, not quite so far past IT management consulting work, both as an independent and employee, most of it was very applicable.
I wasn't nearly as good at misdirection & secrecy as a W2 as I might have been, it probably dropped me into an early rather than later RIF wave in my last W2 stint, side benefit I got to do one more IT strategy engagement on my own.
I'll be sharing with my local Indivisible group...

@cwebber @andrewrk Fact

@cwebber @andrewrk Thanks for sharing this brilliant talk, feel like i have to watch this video every month to re-focus myself.

One of the things I found nice from @andrewrk's talk was, finally, someone else hates A/B testing and says it!

But this really congealed for me in a way upon reflection of the talk: the reason I don't like A/B testing is it's like focus groups but for software

@cwebber @andrewrk same, excellent talk. makes me excited for the future of Zig with a person like Andrew at the helm

@cwebber @andrewrk wow. You're right. That was amazing. Compassion and hope! Thanks.
