@IamMrsGeek taking it way past casual Friday in this office

So @IamMrsGeek isn’t seeing all her notifications or a properly refreshed feed in Toot!
Anybody else have similar issues and know how to handle it? Or does anyone have iOS app suggestions? Or hmm maybe it’s a mix of server and app issues because I see similar.

Reminding myself that when Twitter has a meltdown, the heat goes to everyone else’s servers.

@fortyseven @IamMrsGeek Nah, it’s a server thing mostly. (ex: I just got this reply, timestamped 30 minutes ago?) hackers.town getting swamped by the latest Twitter exodus.

She’s getting Agile Project Management training online, and I’m trying not to audibly roll my eyes at the words coming out of the speakers.

If this course was a drinking game and her chosen word was “agile” she’d be hospitalized in five minutes.

Her agile training course: “…teams doing planning poker 5-10 hours a week. Can you think of any game you’d want to play for ten hours?”
Me, thinking about my Steam profile: “Shut up!”

@gizmomathboy The training course is interesting, as it describes some platonic ideal agile org that honestly could not exist in the world.
Felt very Thornton Mellon hearing it described.

@fortyseven if you’re keen on an account at this instance I can ask about getting you an invite once the drain unclogs. Smaller instance, smaller work capacity, same demand, you know how it is.

New wave of folks from Twitter and beyond. Past time for an #introduction refresh.

@IamMrsGeek uh I’m a little ahead of you there.
We may need to get more Halloween candy.

@IamMrsGeek There are some rough flu variants, that’s for sure. Fingers crossed that it’s something very minor.

@fortyseven It’s different enough that I’ve never quite gone Twitter-free, but it’s sufficiently more pleasant to use that reprioritizing has not been painful — especially since each wave from Twitter a few more folks stick around.
