@carrideen I've never seen it and now I'm curious, and thanks to your mom I can't wait!!

[ #note ]

Well known Twitter researcher Jane Manchun Wong, finally deactivated her Twitter after #ElonMusk begins attacks against Apple.

This act of Musk may be a watershed moment for his own downfall,

Kara Swisher, also declared that "Musk has become the most disappointing tech industry person".

To begin w/, his fame at Tesla & SpaceX was largely due to the background of the company takeover (He was NOT a original founder) for Tesla and the influx of the huge NASA budget for SpaceX.

Twitterの新サービスリークなどで知られた在野の研究者ジェーン・マンチュン・ウォンさんが、マスクがアップルへ因縁を吹っかけ始めたのを境に、ついにTwitterアカウントを閉じたので、マスク失墜の分岐点になりそう。
マスクを古くから見てきているベテランジャーナリストのカラ・スウィッシャーさんも、"マスクはここ25年内で最もガッカリさせられたテック業界人になってしまった"と断じている。
そもそも、テスラ及びスペースXでの名声は、テスラは会社乗っ取り（マスクは創業者じゃない）、スペースXは莫大な米国の航空宇宙予算の流入があってのことだし、さらに言えばテスラやスペースXでは既存技術者が才能豊かだったこともあり資金注入で成果が出たのです。
ツイッターでは、マイクロサービスのエコシステムを知らずに自らのイデオロギー優先で人的リソース放出させてしまうという愚行によって、同様のラッキーは続かないと思う。
イーロン・マスクという人物の実体は、「実業家」と言うより、「お金集め機能付ブルドーザー」と評するのが妥当なのかもしれませんね。

@manchee902 ですよね。「フィナンシェ」に引きづられた甘党の仕業？！

@FlashMobOfOne And...don't be so quick that "states can just ignore it." Having a bipartisan fed law like this gives more ammo for the justices who wish to stop ultra-conservative activist justices to ignore the will of representative of the People.

@FlashMobOfOne In terms of fed law vs. state law, fed law is still above state law. Yes, there's still this allocation that many things (e.g., penal code, family law, contract etc.) are under state law but over all, in terms of hierarchy, when there's a battle btw fed law vs. state law, fed law is still above state law. Yes the current SCOTUS 6 justices are trying to undermine even that, but having a bipartisan fed law still speaks volume.

Senate passes #RespectForMarriageAct, which now will go to the House (expected to pass there too)

Yes it doesn't bind states, but it's nonetheless important to have a fed law like this.

It's stronger when we can lay multiple grounds, including social awareness, acceptance and norm, vocalization of such norm in various contexts, and legislation (you have to start somewhere!!

@Brad_Rosenheim blue sweet potatoes!! Never encountered those. Yes, sweet potato pie sounds awesome!!!!!!!!

Just doing my own little review of #Thanksgiving menu. Next time, instead of pumpkin pie, I'll do a pumpkin flan.

(I love kabocha pumpkin pudding I find in back home in Japan? )

I liked my (very first!) American apple pie. I'll definitely repeat that. I have also made apple-pear pie before (not for Thanksgiving but just as a seasonal thing). I loved it...will make again soon.

Most of all, I'm so glad I have time for #baking again!!!!!

@gaby これでアップルに対して「言論の自由に反対するのか」と脅すなど、マスク自身が反・言論の自由ですよね（わかってなさすぎて、彼自身のビジネスパーソンとしての常識が疑問です?

@HirokoHashitani yes yes…soooo want them all!!

Ahhhh these classic cloth-cover editions!!!!! I want to line my shelves up with all of these? (Being a Manhattanite I am super short of bookshelf real estate…) I am determined to buy at least one copy of something!! Book-reading is also about holding the actual book in hand, feeling the paper and enjoying the font…

@smellsofbikes Yeah I totally understand the mentality. (Tho I never wear T-shirts with words or even pictures/designs)

@noellabo おはようございます?

(I confess I was thinking these thoughts as I squirt a dash of Kewpie mayo over leftover turkey to give some moisture and flavor... it's heating up in my green pan with leftover stuffing & extra oyster mushrooms...

I have this mind love/hate thing about what Japanese ppl do with English language...

I wish they consult native speakers before putting weird embarrassing phrases on T-shirt etc.

But there are some phrases that are weird-cute that I don't know if I want them to stop using or not. For example:
"volumy"
This became so ubiquitous it made an Urban Dictionary entry:
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=volumy

Another one I hate-like is
"mayoler"
pointing to mayo-addicts who put mayo on everything (U know those ppl

@IntlLawGnome Switching up practice areas as well? Wow really impressive. I'm staying tuned!!

@IntlLawGnome Oh wow, congrats! I hear that even though we share the same common law roots, Canadian law can be surprisingly different in some aspects. This is an impressive path you are taking!!

@aliza I`ll let you know if I can track it down. It's a big book (hundreds of pages) but tenderly and thoughtfully written, as I recall....

This is, in a sense, a book dedicated to books and countless people who love books and whose life revolve around books.

I love the historical details too...apparently the author devoted significant efforts in verifying facts.

Ok I'm off to #reading. Can't wait to see what happens next...
