Etymologically, the word β€œweird” comes from the Old English word wyrd which means fate. And it was originally used to describe someone who had the ability to control fate, as in the three Fates. So if you’ve ever been called weird, I’m here to tell you that you’re powerful af.

So a friend of mine can no longer attend @RenderATL and is trying to sell/give away her ticket, if you are a POC, recently graduated a bootcamp, and will be in the Atlanta area between May 31-June 2. Like/comment on this tweet.

Hi Brian, this is my map! nitter.gq/Uncrewed/status/122375…
Since today is the start of Black History Month, here's a map of the black population of the United States by County. You can definitely spot the outline of the southern "black belt" here that stretches from Louisiana and Arkansas to Virginia.

Can confirm. I’m ready to live off noodles and sell my car and I haven’t even missed a check yet
If you've ever been broke in your life, it doesn't matter how much money you have later -- when your paycheck is cut off, that survival mindset comes back QUICK.

I had to travel 26 hours and spend $2000+ to join #ICLR2023 in Rwanda. But people in Africa have to do this every time a conference is held in US. What happens when we make it easier to participate? 1530% higher registrations from Africa. This is important and must continue.
