best i can tell, most mastodon servers are run on a purely volunteer basis, and when you raise this as an issue people say "it's fine, there's patreon, github sponsors, ko-fi, etc."
anyone with a background in open source economics can explain why that answer is not fine.

If your team hates retrospectives, you might want to think about if they are really working as a team or are more loosely coupled employees doing their own thing.
I have seen this so many times. Start with building the team rather than finding new ways of doing retros.

anyway, tech debt is a sacrifice decision: you are sacrificing a lower priority or value goal to achieve a higher priority or value goal. sacrifice decisions are ubiquitous in business.

I was laid off from Twitter this afternoon. I was in charge of managing badge access to Twitter offices.
Elon just called me and asked if I could come back to help them regain access to HQ as they shut off all badges and accidentally locked themselves out.

Humbled. Probably one of the most amazing pieces of feedback I've received in my career, from someone who helped me learn how to lead. 💜

Great leadership and mentoring from @cornazano helped me understand myself, and build my self-confidence.

We appear to have lost any indicator that there are tweets in between the head and tail of a thread.
Yes, there are other tweets in there that make the exchange make sense, just no indicator that they exist.

I wish Twitter had a retract tweet option, which would hide it by default but could still be viewed with a click. I generally think of deleting tweets out of a conversation as dishonest, but if I reconsider something, I don’t want to just leave it alone.

Finished raking up the leaves in the yard. We have 23 bags of yard waste to set out for collection on Tuesday. 😴

Mark my words: the InfoSec community being fractured by the implosion of twitter will absolutely make the global internet less safe.

Fun experience yesterday - a colleague recommended a book to me, and it turned out to be one I'm currently reading. Excited happy chatter about it ensued. 😁

It's an interesting point, one of the reasons he's doing so poorly is that it's *not* rocket science. He failed to recognize Twitter was never a STEM problem, it was about how people interact- and STEM bros always underestimate the humanities.

Elon never brought his SpaceX engineers to Twitter. After all, it’s not exactly rocket science

But they were, all of them, deceived, for another Check Mark was made. In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, a master Check Mark was forged in secret to control all others. And into this Check Mark he poured his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life.

"He’s bumbling his way through a job he’s unqualified for. He’s treating a human problem like an engineering problem, torching bridges and embarrassing himself in the process."

If I'm going to *be* the product (hello, targeted advertising), I am NOT interested in also paying to be the product.

Really, the mass impersonation of Musk by verified accounts was a magnificent satirical art project that achieved its purpose: demonstrating Musk's hypocrisy, the impossibility of speech absolutism, *and* the utter foolishness of the Twitter Blue revamp.
