🥳 Future of Coding London meetup #1!
Love meeting internet friends in IRL! So amazing when someone's real personality doesn't match your expectation of them from their online persona
🤦‍♂️We get together OFFLINE to share ONLINE content. Here are some search terms I got...

* Humane Interface h/t @maryrosecook @acarabott
* Perkeep h/t @joooe
* Sandi Metz Wrong Abstraction h/t @maryrosecook
* Women, Fire, and Dangerous Things h/t @amb26ponder
🎼 I was surprised that HALF of the group was interested in not only the future of coding, but the future of music
⌛️🎙️ @conw_y suggested I interview @pgbovine on my podcast, so used my time-travel microphone and retroactively granted his wish with TWO interviews with Philip, one on my podcast and one on his 🤣
😬 Awkward when we all read each other's blogs

Someone: "There's this new thing I'm working on..."

Me: "Yeah I read about it on your site"

Them: "Oh"

Me: "There's this new thing I'm working on..."

Them: " Yeah I knew about that already too..."

< crickets > < crickets >

Musising from my first week in London...
Too many Pret a Manger's, not enough Chipotle's... or any Mexican food really
Hyde Park is wonderful. Green Park and St James parks are a bit too crowded and car-exhaust-y for running

1/7 If there’s more than one way to encode an idea (in fully reduced form), you’re not being abstract/specific enough. Your encoding is lossy.
2/7 For example, filtering out the even values from a list must be something like: filter list even. While/for/each loop bullshit are all too low level
3/7 The core of what an idea *is* must be singular, definitional, unambiguous.

#London, 1950. The war has ended, but austerity still remained - not least in the thin gruel of available science fiction. So step forward one man (actually two), one publisher and one artist to change all that.

This is the story of Vargo Statten and Scion Science Fiction...
John Russell Fearn was a prolific pulp writer. Known in the UK for his western and detective novels, he was also the first British writer to really break into the American sci-fi pulp market during the pre-war era.
But after the war Fearn struggled to sell stories to the American sci-fi magazine market (even with the help of Frederik Pohl as an agent) and instead concentrated on the UK. He still wrote science fiction the Toronto Star Weekly, but it didn't pay much.

LONG THREAD ALERT: around a year ago I went oddly viral. what started as a picture of me flexing the good booty angle (😂), quickly turned into virality over a few comments I made towards men who saw the picture and began disrespecting/dismissing black women.
since it’s been a year, I wanted to bring back this bizarre blip in my life and then redirect it to provide something useful. nothing I said that day was special or extraordinary, and it ended up opening my eyes to more concerns than I could’ve imagined.
as a quick preface, I want to say thank you for all the kind words and comments people have given me. I had quite a tough winter with my mental health, and each person who wrote me has helped me more than they could know. so thank you x10! I love my internet friends ❤️

There is so much ugliness in the world. The #Hivites are not only working as hard as they can to create as much chaos & negativity in the world as possible, they are also contributing to that swell of negativity with their own DREAD & HATE. I refuse to contribute to that feeling.
There is going to be ugliness & violence, probably more frequently, as the stakes get higher & the #Hivites continue losing ground. I know there is so much bad news to report, & everyone is angry & wanting justice. The DEMAND for justice is palpable. And it is good. But...
Truly, the very BEST thing #WeThePeople can do is counter-BALANCE this negativity with LOVE. With COMPASSION. With honest recognition of truth & firm, unwavering enforcement of reasonable BOUNDARIES. How would you speak to a 4 year old? Do that with these bad actors. Because...
