My commit messages are not so much concise descriptions of code changes as they are incoherent strings of keywords that pop into my head when I try to remember all the shit I just did

I used Rume over the past few days to help folks prepare for S20 demo day. Being able to split off into side rooms off of our main channel to talk to folks individually was incredibly useful. Rume: Video chat that doesn't feel like work producthunt.com/posts/rume

Can’t beat a walking meeting @rich_linstead @Llevel_io
Maybe we need to set a baking challenge once we hit 250, 500, 1000 on the waitlist? @startupschool - do we get bonus points for baked goods? 🧁 ❤️

I understand #RogerMoore is trending because Richard Moore has been appointed the new Head of MI6. Three thoughts. 1. Twitter CAN be wonderful, can’t it? 2. Congrats to Richard Moore 3. Any excuse to re-share this Roger Moore story by Marc Haynes has to be seized. So I seized it

Tip: Tweeting to your audience is great but it's important to expand your reach to new audiences as well. To branch out, be the first to comment on soon-to-be popular tweets from influencers. Thread 👇
