@MarkAStout Totally, especially AWS docs.

I saw the video described in this press release. It was very disturbing. The official response is imho a template for how to respond to such events. https://t.co/Wiq4kvf11j
We have to make this trend continue. More Republicans leave Washington. https://t.co/BoJ2KtlyQK

The right way is to have an array in the message called attachments. Each element is an object with two atts, a blob and content type. Don't create another entrypoint, stick to SES.sendMail. That's what I was hoping to find knowing it never is so simple with AWS toolkits. 😂
@LouiseMensch @dhh @AppleCard @Twitter @TwitterEng And replying to your tweet moved it to the top of my timeline yet again. https://t.co/8ctfbs46Hg
@LouiseMensch @dhh @AppleCard @Twitter @TwitterEng Or give me the option to say "Uncle! I give up! I'm going crazy! Stop now." :-)
This is why AWS's docs make you pull your hair out. I use their SES to send emails. I want to add an attachment. This purports to be example code for sending an attachment. Oh really? 🤪 https://t.co/89bjZmVYcj
@dhh @LouiseMensch @AppleCard I have seen this post dozens of times. The Twitter algorithm is fucked up too. I needed to see it once.
Congrats to Jeff Barr for 15 years of blogging for AWS. https://t.co/gRPhnzQrNG
Here's the actual post. https://t.co/AysxVHvglN https://t.co/3FR3wLgYuI
@webology Yes. Also that they made it easier to chain tweets.
I really am starting to think of my blog posts as tweets. It just happened. I wrote tweets in a blog post where I meant posts. I'm going to leave it there for the irony. Hey I think I'll link to this post from it.
One feature that would be cheap to implement but and add huge power to Twitter is hypertext links. <a href="https://t.co/gPQ9VPYOLB">My blog</a> I remember what a revelation it was when I first learned it in 1994. Imagine all the people online now whose minds would be blown.
An idea worth considering. Ask Knight to fund a project to catalog and publish all the political ads running on Facebook. This is the implementation of the idea @joetrippi liked. That means a lot, he's the only political hacker I know.
The funny thing about public discourse on Twitter is the trolls are effective at silencing people with opinions they don't like, but they can't stop you from voting. That's why it's foolish to stop discourse. It's not a way to win.
@counternotions And a lot of unqualified people think they can be president. You know that right? Not just mayors of NYC. Please.
@counternotions That's where I differ. I lived in NYC for the last Bloomberg term, and with the benefits that came after he left. He made a difference. NYC has a bike infrastructure now. Like everything transformative in NY it's hard to do, because it's so large. I used it all the time.
PS: Twitter is starting to feel like an outliner. Hmm.
There are a number of other people I think of this way, but I'd start with you because our history of starting things together.
By default you can respond to anything I write, and it appears on both our blogs. I trust you to only go interesting places. And vice versa I have posting rights on your blog. But my stuff appears on your blog only when I'm responding to you.
Yo @dsearls. I envision a blogging system where our blogs are paired.
@counternotions Bloomberg could be a flop. Certainly he has been for the times he's kicked the tires and not gotten into the race. But they're really all very different as mayors of the city imho.
@counternotions Lindsay was a failure as NYC mayor. Nice Robert Redford looks, but in way over his head. Giuliani well he likes to say he was responsible for the drop in crime but it really was just timing, the crime rate was going down all on its own. de Blasio is a zero.
How can anyone take @SenJohnKennedy seriously after the crazy shit he said about the Speaker of the House. I mean he's so stupid, it must suck being him. It works. ;-) https://t.co/LtkUoogHq4
@FaceTheNation @SenJohnKennedy Man it must suck being that guy.

@jdkahler 7. Dropbox comes up with a great API. Truly awesome and revolutionary. Starts a developer program. 8. Gives up on developer program. 9. Hires internal devs to compete with Google office. 10. Throws a lot of stuff out there. 11. Clutters up UI. 12. Everyone is confused.
@jdkahler I think that's close but not quite. Here's the sequence. 1. Dropbox dominates. 2. Google launched Google Drive. 3. Dropbox continues to dominate. 4. Google merges Drive with Office. 5. Dropbox gets confused. 6. Dropbox has to compete (they believe). (cont'd)

@limako @syncthing I’m an inadequate person. You are obviously much better than me.
@limako @syncthing I have 28 computers.
@gnarc @gassee That’s too deep a question for me. Way I see it is computers need storage. Dropbox had the whole market, got distracted trying to compete with Google trying to compete with Microsoft. As they say your mileage may vary. 🤓
We should nominate someone who beats trump by 40 points.

@DeanLand If you’re a law-abiding citizen you believe in the rule of law. And the vast majority of people everywhere are that, or nothing would work.
@ElizabethDrewOH Yes.
@DeanLand No way, that’s arrogant and wrong.
@CharlesMBlow I read your column, and this is what I think. Even if it pisses you off I’m going to vote for Bloomberg if he’s the Democratic candidate for president in 2020.
