  3. Honest question; outside of voting, what interaction are we able to have with our representatives to talk to them, question them, and encourage them to legislate one way or another?

    I contacted the senior senator for my locale with a direct question that could have been answered with three or four words. All I got was a form response that didn't address what I asked. He isn't doing physical or virtual town halls, so is a black box to those of us he represents.

  5. @coffeegeek An instant message gets an instant answer, but usually no more than a short sentence, at best.
    You're never going to get more than a 'yes', 'no', 'I don't know', or 'have you asked Jeeves?', it's a constraint of the medium.
    Thoughtfulness is discouraged, response on IM is a system 1 activity.

  7. Her: I forgot to change the status messages in my code before I turned it in.

    Me: how bad can it be?

    Her: the messages are all just frowny faces when something goes wrong, and a smiley when it works.

    Me: sounds like undocumented features to me. 😂

  9. Make butt loads of money 40 years straight (I'm sure some was legal), spend 5 months not making buttloads of money (just simply tonloads), spend the rest of life spending said butt and ton loads of money. #WorkingAsDesigned
