My brother works at a hospital that had to throw vaccine doses out because they weren’t able to find anyone to give them to. He asked if they could give it to his gf instead of throwing a dose out and was told no - they would lose their license.

A short list of things to try: * Government leaders indemnify any credentialed healthcare provider or employer of same from liability resulting from good-faith attempt to administer a vaccine. * Call Walgreens/CSVs, immediately. Tell them to prep to receive doses.

Just merged a change so leaving a Group DM won't send a notification anymore. Also added this option so you can silently leave a group DM without sending a "user left" message! It was fun working on a feature request from Riv, been watching him for years 😄

big upgrades to attachments: now you can upload up to 10 files at a time on desktop, see previews, and add alt text for ppl with screen readers (plus a few more things). pretty big.

If you contract work out to someone and then decide to later open source their code, you should not remove them from the Git history. Or, at bare minimum, credit them.

Buliding a message command Discord bot remains one of the single best things I've ever done for software engineering interview prep. It really teaches you how to think through and identify edge cases, and how to best structure your code to handle them

We dropped customer complaints massively by adding a spinner to our A+B=C calculation at one of my old jobs. Customers didn’t believe we could instantly calculate their estimated return on spend, so we added an artificial 3s load.

You might think Mike's joking, but he's not. I've worked on projects where we faked loading bars, extended loading times, or artificially made loading bars move at uneven speeds. Don't think I've ever coded a straight-up correct loading bar.

Reinforces my belief that tech companies need a skilled, FTE team to be a barrier between algorithms and content like this. Alorigthms don’t handle nuance and will always get things wrong; human moderators that filter and edit things will make the product better.
