Does anyone care about the sloppiness about once well edited & crafted magazines like @MotorTrend?! Just doesn’t feel like they really give a shit enough to give their articles a second set of eyes. This is something #AISlop does!

Never believe what someone is trying to convince you of something when it’s out of norm. I’m sure a 212-hp wood chipper would do more than pulverize the 3” branches from a garden LOL. Use your brain because companies aren’t responsible for their employees not using theirs! @Lowes

Pavers are one of the most resilient paving materials available, in large part due to their small scale of individual components & ability to work together as a whole while being replaceable as individuals without disruption to the rest. #antifragile

We can remove that anti-fragility by grouting them together permanently, requiring that they be treated as a monolith w significant & disruptive effects on the other parts of the whole. We do this a lot in the name of capitalism. Recognize where the whole is less than the parts.

If I were to advise a teenager interested in a career as an architect—a thread 🧵 This is based on my own experiences & education, getting a professional degree (Bachelor of Architecture) & no longer practicing General insights—exceptions always apply!

If sports & being on a team is of interest, consider participating in college extracurriculars or club activities if competition isn’t the priority; if it is, see if you can be on your high school sports teams anyway (you’re still a student through there).

Learn graphic design; graphic & design communication; computer modeling, rendering & drafting; BIM. Learn industry standard software for work while exploring other affordable software for personal use. Explore some business courses & finance too. Get generals out of the way.

When iOS apps stop working, it’s likely they need to be updated. But @Apple has never addressed this simple to resolve issue that would resolve thousands of hours of cumulative frustration by iPhone users! Instead they do stupid changes to faces! Argh!

Is this what performance difference because of throttling or a change in the hardware? If it’s from software upgrades, wouldn’t the performance be much more similar when the two generations run the same iOS on the same chip? Probably based on original out-of-box performance tho🤷🏽‍♂️

Is where you were born more important than where you identify with? At what point does your claim to being a native dwindle? And most importantly, does your nativism grant you special privileges or status beyond those who weren’t born where
Nativism can be a confusing thing, especially in a country with so much mobility like the USA. Living in the same state or even city all your life is not very common outside the NE. What if someone returns to a city or state decades after they were born there? Are they #native?
