This new Gmail logo is... weird? It’s too wide or something? Or too colorful? I think it might be too much for my home row, regardless.

@dotMorten @surface @JenMsft It strikes me as the type of thing that people internally just get used to, then kinda forget that it sucks.

@dotMorten @surface @JenMsft And what’s wild is that it’s so consistently bad. Every single product, every single OS build. For years.

Small gap or no second scream? Probably innocuous. >2 seconds or something? Better head over for team consolings.

When I'm not on parent duty and working in the other room, I can kinda tell how bad 2yo's tumble is based on the time between initial scream... [intake of breath] ...and second scream.

@shl Like, do you have any sort of level banding or description of role? "Senior dev makes $ x/year, and 'senior dev' means you contribute like this..."?

@shl This is great and eliminates so many little angsts that happen when you're forced to *wonder* if you're underpaid. Curious though, @shl, how do you address the disparities, if the arise? Especially disparities along typical lines like race, gender?

@VelocityWong @jasonfried @reworkpodcast Not having read the caption, I assumed this is just how @jasonfried wakes up all of his coworkers.

I love the frequent @Notepad_plus updates, but please stop asking me my install language every time. It's... the same as it was last week.

@johncutlefish Plus, you can play out people if they’re talking too long.

As a thought experiment, how would it feel if every physical device we used was pay-per-use or subscription-based?

@mattchewone I couldn’t help but hear a voice say after this, “...LIKE A NERD???” 😂

I think Glowforge might vastly overestimate how interested in mismatched puzzle pieces we are.

At first glance, you can tell this 45-piece puzzle printed on a Glowforge doesn't *quite* match. But that's on purpose, find out why: bit.ly/34d84Gj.

Saturday morning dilemma before baby wakes up: trying to decide if I have enough time to start go downstairs to start a project or just sit here on Twitter with coffee and wait.

I love how in a long, formal technical article, somewhere in there the author gets loose. Like... either it just took that long, or they know no one but nerds are reading at this point, so let's go for it. docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous…
