We’ve set aside $10,000 in matching funds. If you make a donation to a fund that directly benefits Black people in the next 7 days, we will match it. (More in thread 👇)
A quote we’ve been thinking about: “I always ask myself when I’m trying to do solidarity work, can the people I’m in solidarity with actually feel this? Can they spend this? Can they eat this? Does this actually help them in any way? And if it doesn’t, let it go.” — Ijeoma Oluo

Some folks are saying I won for “demographic” reasons. 1st of all, that’s false. We won w/voters of all kinds. 2nd, here’s my 1st pair of campaign shoes. I knocked doors until rainwater came through my soles. Respect the hustle. We won bc we out-worked the competition. Period.

If you’re wondering who did the dope @Ocasio2018 brand identity and design work like I was, it was done by Tandem NYC and a designer named Maria Arenas. All political advertising should be this beautiful. #NY14 – at Washington, DC

Has anyone else noticed that we tend to praise/respect developers who work for big companies and not listen as much to people who work for small ones? I think that's weird. People who work for small companies often have to wear a lot of hats and manage their time really well.

Software projects, please stop with language like "just run `npm install ..." What does `run` mean? Where? What's npm? ERR! Permission denied. Oh no! Oh so it's really `sudo npm install..` npm WARN...should I be worried? It's not "just". bradfrost.com/blog/post/just…
