The last time I bought some @mujiusa pens was 2016ish, and I finally bought some new ones recently. The only difference in 6 years: older versions (L) have a shorter tip vs the newer ones (R) are a bit more elongated. The new ones are a lot more comfortable to write with.
Congratulations to the winner of our Formation X @hellomayuko Scholarship for Underrepresented Talent in Tech—Rosemary Liang!
Welcome to the Fellowship, Rosemary!
"There's this feeling of needing to be productive at the beginning that we just innately have...but the expectation is not to produce right away."

Got any plans for tomorrow night? Well we are live on Instagram tomorrow from 6pm PST to answer all your questions about #iosdev and transitioning in to a career in iOS.
Are you wanting to learn iOS Development? Do you have questions about transitioning in to tech, or our next cohort? Well you're in luck! On September 7 we will be running an Instagram Live FAQ and Q&A and we'd love to hear from you! Mark in your calendar and come say hi! #iosdev
first-world reasons about why I went into SWE (that I remembered recently)
🎵 i can listen to music while working
🎙️ i can even listen to music w/lyrics without getting distracted because (at least for me) it doesn't conflict with my thoughts
🚽 i can go to the bathroom whenever
As someone who’s day in the life in tech video also went viral in 2017, yes, of course we do. Can we stop questioning everybody’s credibility and hard working-ness based on the content we make for fun 😐
And yes, my team is hiring an iOS Dev: we’re a seasoned but tiny team, the work is really interesting, it’s fully remote, and we work a 4 day workweek: matter.xyz/jobs/ios#iosdev
After thinking I'd never go back to working as a Software Engineer again, the universe had other plans. I started as a Sr. iOS Dev at @matterxyz 3 weeks ago, and I'm genuinely having so much fun. Youtubing has become a side gig once more, and yes, video on this is coming soon.
It helps that my team is awesome, I have a 4 day workweek, and it's remote. I'm still making videos, but without the crushing pressure of *needing to*, anymore. I'm going to take my time now to fundamentally recalibrate what I want to make online.
So who knows what the future holds. But I'm really happy right now. And I'm excited. And having fun. And I'm really glad that I prioritized that for myself this year (and really lucky that I could).
Announcement 📢‼️ We are so excited to announce our September Cohort Applications are opening August 14th! Keep an eye on our social channels over the coming weeks to get insights in to learning iOS Development, our guides, and what to expect. Stay tuned. #iosdev#swift
