@jmoiron @bryanl I learned Go in my nights/weekends. It's one of those things where I think you shouldn't have to, because it puts people with more non-work commitments at considerable disadvantage, but I can't say it hasn't helped.

@jmoiron "NYC has reached herd immunity" is not widely believed by experts. The goal is to provide an alternative explanation that discounts the efficacy of our (clumsy) response (masks, closures, distancing) and validate a sustained campaign against basic public health measures.
@jmoiron The tragedy is that NY has botched its response repeatedly before working out a mix of measures that work (+ some that probably don't), but conservative Governors could not even rise to our level of basic incompetence and thousands are dead across the American south as a result.
@jmoiron Offering people up as human sacrifice to economic growth in a gambit to improve conditions for the election unpopular, not to mention ghoulish, so an alternate narrative has to be constructed where counter-measures are ineffective and our economic sacrifices are in vain.

@jmoiron @Grady_Booch @copyconstruct There was a reaction to your book in which people approached software with a patterns-up approach, and a growing apprisal of that methodology has been that it creates too much incidental structural complexity.

@jmoiron @jordanorelli The first game I worked on was the last game I worked on! A homebrew shmup for the GBA called "Estoc" (copy/homage to einhander), which was a senior project. I realized that I loved working on the tools/support/text display system, and hated working on the game.

@jmoiron Recasting the 9/11 cultural response as a moment of charity and togetherness that represents our true selves, and something we should return to, is exactly the same kind of historicaly rewrite as "MAGA."

@jmoiron @simplicio823 @AnandWrites For others, the two inventions were Leaded Gasoline and Chlorofluorocarbon's (CFCs). Definitely an excellent example of this. Most people who came to regret their weapons inventions (Nobel, Oppenheimer) knew what they were making.

@jmoiron @aliph It's complicated, but there's a very big part of me that hates it and is disappointed.

@jmoiron Great interview, this stood out to me: asked if he could envision @AOC as president, Chomsky talks about... well, 8 dudes: Bernie Sanders, Yanis Varoufakis, Jair Bolsonaro, Donald Trump, Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi, Narendra Modi, Viktor Orban and David Hume. https://t.co/mLtHn9oS9j
@jmoiron @bytemask @LordOmlette I don't exactly agree with the conclusions, but the discussion of why Trump resonates with people even when he is very transparently a massive idiot and a con-man here was pretty good: https://t.co/kBc7tCtiXm
