@jmoiron RT @glcst: I'll be talking at P99 conf about performance of async rust and how the existing executors compare.

@jmoiron Gutted to learn this morning that incredibly funny man and carrot-in-a-box world champion Sean Lock has passed away.

@jmoiron @amontalenti The comp & power structure of engineering orgs have management at the top. That's a really powerful incentive. Most people would be willing to do something they enjoy less if it meant they were better compensated.
@jmoiron @amontalenti For professionals like artists, surgeons, lawyers, designers, etc; the comp structure at the "top" of those fields has them paying teams to manage an org that relies on their prestige & skill. They're the boss, but they are still a practitioner. Engineering is...

@jmoiron 600,000 Americans died of Covid-19 because too many strongly believe in shit like this and stopping the spread relied on everyone following the preventative measures. https://t.co/RSIb7Y7Jg9
@jmoiron @copyconstruct At the micro level, everything feels like it's macro level. At the macro level, it isn't.
