I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him. I'm talking about something very different. Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired. Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to. But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Also, I will be writing on Substack-- please consider subscribing, and supporting my writing and video work there. karenattiah.substack.com

iOS 26 - 2010s UI is back with a glass filter. If I got your attention remember people in Gaza, Sudan and DRC are under catastrophic humanitarian man made crisis. Don’t look away. Also free speech is under attack for real. And no it wouldn’t have been the same under Kamala & Tim

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

This is precisely the kind of government coercion that the First Amendment was designed to prevent — and media companies need to start standing up rather than capitulating to it.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

A Fox presenter called for the 🪦 of homeless people & nothing happened. Certain outlets often make awful remarks about children and marginalized people who are victims of violence, but nothing happens. Jimmy K points out the hypocrisy of this reaction, and now free speech is no longer protected.

I needed a reason to cancel a streaming service, and now that Disney, the parent company of ABC, has fired Jimmy Kimmel, I guess I can get rid of Disney+. #cancelDisney+

Providing a platform to black women isn't the same as offering sponsorship or opportunities. Yes, you may put us in front of leadership; we will be praised and receive moderate compensation. We will lead the charge, but never get the rewards. After a while, we will feel used.

Gaza is not starving they are being starved.

Nesting vs branching emails: I'm stuck in a thread split email mess. Instead of a readable structure, replies are deeply nested. I need a visual tree that branches from the original email, clearly showing read/unread paths. Has anyone solved this? Do we have these views in the world 👇

Mum: I watched movie with Ben Netflix where he played an account. Me: what? Mum: Ben Netflix Who she meant

Just to be crystal clear: bombing Iran is completely illegal.

WTF just happened! This is bad

I'm at it again... Created a TikTok teacher and student dance trend to the ending of my favorite book. Can you guess the book?

Ten years since the Charleston Racist massacre at the AME church. The racial violence in the USA has gone on for Centuries against my folks and continues unchecked & even rewarded. We Remember these beautiful souls. #Charleston #DylanRoof #RacialViolence

I played around with Veo today, and I must say that I'm pretty impressed. I created an 8-second vlog-style clip from one of my favorite books.... Can you guess which book and where the character is going? The prompt was pretty robust, but okay

One thing I've come to understand is that you can excel at your job—be truly skilled, respected, and accomplished—yet still feel lost, unfulfilled, or incomplete. If you're a lead encourage those around you to explore new opportunities, hobbies, embrace the unknow. Happy Friday and turn off your 💻

My 10-year-old niece's school band needed messaging apps, so they started group chats in Google Docs with side chats in comments. 🤯 I am both impressed and amused! 😂

Does anyone have tips on setting up on-line payment systems for a tiny business? Tutorials are welcome

This day is filled with tears.

My 14 year old nephew said he is going to watch Thunderbolt with his friends. This the first marvel he hasn’t watched for the first time with me 😢. I am okay I promise 😭😭😭😭😭😭. I’m fine

I haven't enjoyed a movie in theatre for years but, hands down Ryan Coogler #Sinner is the best movie I have seen in a while and made me enjoy going to movies again. A must see. I definitely watching it again

Really Google!!! WHY WHY

1.2% of the budget goes towards USAID. Don’t believe the wildly false narratives meant to flood narratives www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

I hate the way musk thinks he’s a techie. Expert in computers and all this nonsense. He thinks a system in place for decades is missing a checkbox and he’s made some amazing discovery. Embarrassing.

Everyone wants all the features in the MVP. Just build and keep rapidly iterating. Optimize for delivering high quality features with speed.

This week, I have found myself in a series of conversations on how to think about Microsoft.Extensions.AI (M.E.AI pronounced Mee-ya by me ... ). One of PM architects, Damian, pointed out how similar it is to EF Core, so let's break it down

I don’t know jack about 🇺🇸 football but all I know is I will be rooting for Jalen Hurts.

The foundation of my career has been simplification, ensuring developer joy. Proud of that! 🌟 With the 3rd wave of AI, this work has paved the way. Now it's time to creatively build on what we've achieved. 🚀 #AI #Innovation #DeveloperJoy"

The number 1 thing I have used AI for the past year is navigate and have conversations with repos. As PM lead I barely have time to build projects but, I like to know what is happening. Today I may have had my 🤯. Let me share

“You can do it, anything is possible” #Grammys

Polyglot Notebooks(.NET interactive) is still one of the most innovative pieces of tech I got to work on. Diego, Jon and Bret pushed the boundaries of innovation here and did stuff nobody thought was possible. To see it cross over 1.4 million downloads is 🥰. 🙏🏿 to all you who continue to use it.
