If you’re at @JupyterCon and want to discuss anything Scala, find me there or send me a DM.
A lot of things changed recently in the Scala tooling ecosystem, and so will Almond!

1/18 Je me rends compte de l'ironie de la situation: un prisonnier politique russe s'adresse aux électeurs français. Mais techniquement, je suis en prison à cause d’une plainte déposée par une entreprise française.

1/16A Russian political prisoner addressing the voters of France is quite ironic. But technically, I'm in jail due to a criminal complaint by a French company; I studied 🇫🇷 at university and wear a scarf whenever I come to Paris. France is close to my heart, so I'll give it a try

Noooo, don't blame the intern, even if it's anonymously. If someone is to blame, it's the broader team for not creating the guardrails or process to prevent an intern from shipping this error.

The #Web is changing fast and @Apple has figured that out, as demonstrated by their use of #RDF for Product #KnowledgeGraph deployment using #HTML. This includes a machine-readable #FAQ per product e.g., the new #iPad page.

The cruelty and absurdity of our for-profit health care system is more obvious in the midst of this crisis than it has ever been. The American people want Medicare for All.
New from @ymurad__: Support for "Medicare for All" reached a nine-month high in March, with 55% backing among all voters.
Net support jumped 9 points from February to March, as the coronavirus outbreak surged. morningconsult.com/2020/04/0…

The programming world is in a dismal state:
1) Harder every year to build quality software
2) New tools give up front speed over maintainability
3) Dependency management is out of control
4) LTS periods are getting shorter
5) The best tech is fringe
6) Marketing driven adoption
