Wow, I just tried using Twitter, Instagram and YouTube natively on iOS and it was an unbelievably bad experience. Ads & promoted content are everywhere, the real stuff you want to see is pushed down immensely. Using browser versions with adblockers fixes it 😫

Dividing the world into vaccine haves and have-nots is like dividing a swimming pool so it has a "pissing end" and a "no pissing" end. We're still all in the same pool. Humanity has a shared epidemiological destiny. 8/

A team is a system. No one part of the system is responsible for its success. Success comes only from the system as a whole.

"The automobile has dissolved the living tissue of the city. Its appetite for space is absolutely insatiable; moving & parked, it devours urban land, leaving buildings as mere islands of habitable space in a sea of dangerous & ugly traffic." β€”James Marston Fitch, NY Times, 1960.
