Sure it's on linkedin, but I think this will resonate with everyone building internal tooling #tech #softwaredevelopment

The difference internal tooling makes
“The impact is harder to see.” This is what a fellow product manager once told me when I shared that I work on internal tooling.

Just finished "Girls Like Us" by Randi Pink. Pink has a knack for telling stories that capture the grim but also vibrant nuances of African-American history. I previously read "Under the Heron's Light" which has more elements of magical realism and connects more directly to the history of enslavement; "Girls Like Us" is more historical fiction, with a bridge at the end to contemporary times (circa 2019, when the book was published). It tells the story of a disparate group of mostly-Black teens who are pregnant in 1972, and shows a range of different outcomes as varied as the backstories of the different girls. Rather than just separate vignettes, the girls' stories are women together into a single plot, and Pink is a expert at pulling us in to deeply contemplate all the complexities of these girls' lives, showing rather than telling us truths about the politics of teen pregnancy and abortion, and how even though the choices involved don't have simple answers, taking those choices out of the hands of the people they most intimately affect is cruel and deadly.

found out about music hall of williamsburg's closure by overhearing one bouncer telling another as i walked into the bowery last night but assumed i misheard & forgot about it til after the show. saw plenty of fun shows there, but mostly remembering it fondly as north six, before it was gutted & turned into a personality-less bowery knockoff.

toiling and moiling

The stupid, stupid "Danger Zone" Trump video
Does he really think of himself as a C-list Batman villain? Or, like, a Mr Mxyzptlk ripoff?
I distinctly remember how old I was when I stopped thinking poop jokes were funny
I was *eight* — and I never used them on my enemies, even then
I don't consider myself particularly evolved
But Mr shits-on-a-golden-throne is…telling on himself?

Linux kernel tooling update message included an unsurprising, but noteworthy lament about the state of #SMTP:
"We're increasingly having to deal with the degradation of the SMTP support by
all commercial companies: [...]"
