"Part of the new process will include a review and outline of the kinds of research the company believes it should be conducting." Interesting how they fire me after I ask what the parameters of the research I can do at Google are. What they're announcing is more censorship.

I've stopped using datetime.strftime() and just use f-strings. #Python Did you know that you can do this? Instead of >>> somedate.strformat("%Y-%m-%d") do >>> F"{somedate:%Y-%m-%d}"

I've long admired tech zine creators like @b0rk & @sailorhg, and I needed a creative outlet. So I started on a little @spacy_io zine. I can't draw, so I'm going for "cheatsheet meets coffee table book" 📚🎨✨ If I got this printed as a mini book, would anyone be interested?

📣 We need your help. This is the post we hoped to never write, but today marks a huge turning point in The Strand's history. Our revenue has dropped nearly 70% compared to last year, and the loans and cash reserves that have kept us afloat these past months are depleted.

And one more thing: I was honored to coordinate the Ebola response — 2 Americans died. We left behind a playbook, and a global team to spot outbreaks. You ignored the first and dismantled the latter: and now 200,000 are dead.
