@dkernohan @cogdog @mdvfunes Exactly! And I want to confirm, this is concretely on our near-term roadmap. Watch this space.
This Wednesday's This Week in Google is one to watch. Okay, they always are, but here's another reason why: http://leoville.withknown.com/
"But there's one more thing ... Love. The final thing is love." Apple finally finds closure.
This is a huge week for @withknown. Thank you to everyone who's supported us on our journey so far. So many good things to come.
If you want tech to be broadly usable, you can try and include every possible use case .. or make it super-simple so others can fill detail.
A bold choice to give the thing you've disrupted as swag.
This news story is best read while listening to Always Look on the Bright Side of Life. http://m.ibnlive.com/news/god-particle-could-destroy-the-universe-hawking/497272-2.html
Hi Jon - good catch. We fixed this tonight.
This week is <a href="http://matter.vc">Matter</a> Demo Day, but I'd love to catch up sometime soon and give you an update.
@tcarmody If we're talking places, Smitten in SF. If we're talking flavors, I'm a salted caramel convert. Real pistachio can be great too.
@rachelbinx I'm convinced that every single person on a project should work support.
Also: completely inspired by the #indieweb community, as always. Passionate people working for a better web. Learn more: http://indiewebcamp.com
So excited to be part of @mattervc Three. This week is demo day San Francisco; next week is demo day New York. Stay tuned for announcements.
I may have been trying to take a picture of the sky.
The web is the most powerful platform for learning that human society has ever known. Every time we encounter someone with different skills, contexts and ideas to us, we learn from each other - as long as we share those things.
In many places, children are brought up to think of talking about politics as rude, and these attitudes can sometimes translate to social media. I feel very differently: while it may be rude to talk about differences of opinion at the Thanksgiving table, if only because the social norms have been set differently, I almost think of it as a duty to share our ideas online.
Of course, like any marketplace, a marketplace of ideas needs to have some rules. When I ran a debate forum a decade ago, we had a small number of core ideas:
I think these hold for any online conversation.
Personally? I love it when people talk politics with me, or disagree with the ideas I publish. And more generally, I think the web would be a richer, more valuable place if we all wrote about what we believed. As long as every party in the conversation is able to understand how to debate with each other, and understands that it's okay to be wrong, we all become smarter in the process.
I post about my political beliefs, as well as my other beliefs, according to this thesis. I don't think that people who disagree with me are bad in any way; it's a privilege to be able to have conversations with people all over the world about things that matter. I do think anything that adds to the commons, and the gene pool of ideas, is a good thing.

@cogdog It's to do with the funding mandate and the UK license fee. Major source of frustration for me since I moved.
@c_losrun Hey, maybe this startup. There's still time for a pivot. #breakfast
@daveowhite It's not WordPress, but I can give you a pre release @withknown link if you're interested.
A basic diner in North Berkeley would make a killing. I just want some eggs while my clothes dry, man.
A brief reminder that I don't work on Elgg anymore and don't currently provide Elgg support. Thanks.
