and
@figmadesign
figjam + some api/gpt-3 magic!
imagine a project board with:
✨ smart resource embeds and links w generated summaries+insights
🎨 notes, drawings, and stickies
I’m actually excited about this - I think it’ll push the education system to evaluate students in different ways; based on how they talk about their writing and why they wrote certain things, how they think about potential improvements, etc. things that are hard for GPT-3 to do
Massive shout outs to
@kly_cl
and our superstar dev intern
@danielarosev
who took this project on and made it happen! 💫💫💫💫💫
They solved a real pain point for many educators, and will make it much easier for people in classrooms to collaborate and work with each other!

We’re excited to announce that we’re running Rabbitholeathon 3.0 this summer: an intimate retreat for young technologists dedicated to exploring your curiosities on a topic of your choice and sharing your learnings with others 🐇🕳️

main characters of this year’s bday call w the fam include my grandma figuring out the zoom audio, my spooked baby cousin, and the doggo (and the rest of the fam 💗)
junior year is “I’m tired” transcending its superficial meaning of just sleepiness and fatigue and becoming something that embodies your whole body mind & soul
onboarding customers and running kyc checks is too painstaking these days.
@sayakmighty
and I turned it on fast auto-approval mode ⚡️
SO to hackathon sponsor for helping us investigate borat 👮♂️
next to the N’s are the people who met a group of amazing, dedicated, and determined Douglas survivors who prepared for days and traveled for hours to put forth a bill for a ban on assault weapons, and who refused to even discuss it.
so my music teacher’s husband has Alzheimer’s and doesn’t know where or who he is but every time I finish a song he goes “beautiful. oustanding.” why am I crying in the club rn
found another thing to obsessively personalize while procrastinating work :-) anyways smash that calendly link on there if u wanna hang virtually / in SF!
cool things about Bogotá, Colombia:
- plastic straw negative stigma
- iris scanners at airports
- mandatory plastic bag fee
- $5 manicures
- mountains on horizon
- complimentary bread at not only Italian restaurants
- assault weapon ban
- kids come home from school
will be visiting London, Oslo, and Paris these next couple of weeks if anyone is around! would love to chat fintech or just exchange travel reflections

so excited about new forms of interviewing that are more equitable and lead to more diversity (of both background and thought) in tech :) would highly recommend applying to Neo!
Our goal at Neo is to identify America’s most promising CS students and help them become tomorrow’s tech leaders. This year, we’re rethinking the tech interview, making it more personalized and equitable: you choose how you’re assessed. (Thread 1/...)
Hey guys, Douglas rly needs money for memorials, books, etc.!! We’ll be selling pins for $5 and wristbands for $3 around school throughout this week and next week to raise funds for them :-)
wishing apple keyboard could prompt workflows kinda like slack - automatic event creation when I send a time, added todo every time I say “I’ll lyk”, or like a notes compilation of all the times I loled a lot in a message
Future founders: Apply to become a Neo Scholar.
We've just opened applications for
@Neo
Scholars, our program to help America's most promising junior engineers become future tech leaders. (1/9)
reading Jane Jacobs and wondering if post-COVID cities can better rely on “eyes on the street” for public safety w/ more ppl at home and less concentrated in buildings? but unsure w/ the lack of people-watching, trust, community unity etc.
if i ever seem distracted in a meeting this is what i’m online shopping for 😌 anyways i love my team!! go join them for product design / swe interships!
I also feel so lucky working on this team. Products are reflections of ppl who built them, and Figma is a thoughtful bunch who don’t take ourselves too seriously. Finding files like this have brought much needed smiles. (

In 2015, you suggested to "seal up the room and gas the lot of them" when referring to the upper house of the UK Parliament, or as you called it, a "bunch of plonkers."
Looks like someone can't handle people with different political views than yours. Sorry, who's the kid here?
