Reminded that not enough people know the @tomstuart@twitter.com rules of good public speaking:
1) Have something to say
2) Say it
Having watched the SwiftUI videos on https://developer.apple.com/videos/ I’m impressed by how fun it looks and how directly it’s imported (albeit renamed) many of its concepts from React. One interesting part is the optional explicit two-way binding — has someone already tried this in React?

Four tweets above this in my feed is a tech bro I avoid at events because he's kind'v an arse and was often loudly chasing booze. His post is him lamenting how afraid he is to tweet because he might offend someone. https://twitter.com/KeziyahL/status/1142806909323493376

(Ironic that there’s no way for me to quietly link to the review in question — Twitter would insist on putting it front and centre. That’s the opposite of the point.)
Turn on for 1 second, turn off for 0.5 seconds, turn on for 0.25 seconds, turn off for 0.125 seconds, turn on for 0.0625 seconds, and continue until 2 seconds have elapsed https://youtu.be/1BB6wj6RyKo
@rgarner@twitter.com @tekin@twitter.com @floehopper@twitter.com @chrispatuzzo@twitter.com Thanks for the suggestions! Your ideas have collectively made me think of “ratchet rebase”, which (in a classic me manoeuvre) I like best. So I’ll just start saying that now & pretend it’s always been a thing #ratchetrebase #thoughtleader

Microsoft is vocally celebrating #Pride month, which is a good thing! But how do they reconcile this with their ongoing campaign donations to some of the most homophobic and transphobic politicians in America? Here is a thread of threads with the facts. https://twitter.com/Microsoft/status/1134506730753265665

This is a masterpiece of the tweeting arts. Two of the founders of AirBnB went to RISD (a prestigious American design school), while the third was a Harvard grad. The conceit that 'rich kid' refers to one's account balance, rather than social class, makes me drop my monocle 🧐
I tried to ask about this before (in a different way) here, but never got an answer that I understood. It’s very possible that I’m just confused. Someone please help my brain. https://twitter.com/tomstuart/status/1063381236209598464
This is spot on. And it works! I keep getting distracted by the right-wing narrative and mistakenly end up feeling angry about the corrosive effect of substance dualism or whatever. But nah mate it’s just plain old misogyny, racism, classism and theocracy.

What angers me about the GOP’s attempts to turn the United States into a far-right Christian theocracy is how dishonest they are about it.
At least be forthright about your desire to subvert and dismantle our democracy into a creepy theological order led by a mad king.

John Becker (OH) thinks ectopic pregnancies can be "reimplanted" in a uterus. Vito Barbieri (ID) said women can have gyn exams by swallowing a camera. Dan Flynn (TX) believes abortion requires cutting into a uterus.
