Thirty years ago on June 18, Sally Ride became the first American woman in space. The anniversary coincides with yesterday’s announcement of NASA’s eight new astronauts—four of which are women! 

Yes. Leaning into space. More girls in STEM = endless possibilities.

Lift is basically the app that helps be be a functioning human.

I was a part of their web beta and I’m stoked that today Lift is available to everyone! http://lift.do/ 

So far, it’s helped me work towards goals like: drink more water, bite my nails less, stop drinking pop, and wash my hair more.

I’ve been posting on ADN for a while & the team there was nice enough to give me invites to let my friends use it for free! ADN is basically a private social network that users pay for, so it’s supposed to provide more of a quality over quantity experience.

Most of the people I follow are also in tech, and it’s been an especially helpful resource for anything iOS7 related. 

Full disclosure: if you sign up via my invite, you automatically follow me. No worries if you wanna unfollow :)

I gotta give props to a person who has such a clearly defined goal they’re working towards.

Screen 1 & 2 of my phone with iOS7 (screen 3 is just folders)

Screen 1 has mostly “older” apps and doesn’t look all that different with the new icons. I deleted Yahoo weather and went with the stock weather app as they’re basically the same now. 

Screen 2 looks completely different, and most of those are apps I have downloaded within the last few months. Notice a trend in icons?

I need to change my background now that the iPhone “moves with you,” and I really love how now you can put unlimited apps in a folder. Screen 1 & 2 of my phone with iOS7 (screen 3 is just folders)

“I do most of that work with a tool called Ruby on Rails. Ruby on Rails does for web developers what a toilet-installing robot would do for plumbers. (Web development is more like plumbing than any of us, perched in front of two slick monitors, would care to admit.) It makes tasks that used to take months take hours. And the important thing to understand is that I am merely a user of this thing. I didn’t make it. I just read the instruction manual. In fact, I’m especially coveted in the job market because I read the instruction manual particularly carefully. Because I’m assiduous and patient with instruction manuals in general. But that’s all there is to it.”

If you don’t work in the “tech” or “startup” industry and want to know what it’s like (or if you do work in the “tech” or “startup” industry and don’t realize that you live in the bubble), you should read this.

Actually, you should just read it no matter what.
