So you want a job in gaming? 🎮 I often get questions on how to get a gaming job. When I first joined the @PokemonGoApp marketing team,I had never worked in gaming before. I wasn’t even a marketer. In this MONSTER thread,I'll tell my story & give advice on how to break in👇🏽
I'm excited to see this product come out, led by tbh co-founder @erikhazzard—who is demonstrating his world-class craftsmanship. techcrunch.com/2021/04/07/fac…
#The100DayProject I’m imagining what a #dataviz designer’s wallpaper would look like throughout the past century. 🤗 Here’s my #datavizWallpaper for 1920!
Embedded into this tweet is the new episode of the podcast. It is an introduction to Deleuze and part of his answer to the question: What is philosophy? I hope you love it. philosophizethis.org/what-is-philos…

Just for the record, Facebook was always super supportive of the tbh team + product. And the product's deprecation came at my recommendation, not anyone else's.

A teaser thread of why our live streaming platform is game-changing: 📺We've divorced "creators" from "channels" 🏙️Communities are persistent and live on platform 🤝Creation is centered around collaboration 💰 Robust monetization 🗣️ Automod features #Streaming #livestreaming
I’m excited for the coming weeks as we get closer to revealing our live streaming platform. What excites me most is we spent the past year critically examining why streaming platforms fail creatives. Our platform isn’t a clone—it’s a fundamentally new approach! Soon!
This is a really important misconception to clear up. Many people think if your product/UX is "good enough", you don't need onboarding. I used to think it too, and I've been in product and UX design for 20 years. Instead, I've seen how great onboarding can increase activation…
@aleksliving The best app have no onboarding experience. You just know how to use them right away with no explanation and walk through
movies are going to become video games and video games are going to become something unimaginably better
@nikitabier @LaillaElgohary @erikhazzard What a cofounder! 💯
@nikitabier @LaillaElgohary @erikhazzard Erik was also awesome on NPE at Facebook — did the engineering steering committee providing the backbone for an entire portfolio of apps, I learned a lot from him
@nikitabier @erikhazzard Love it, and not at all surprising - he's still like this today 😍
@LaillaElgohary @erikhazzard Erik is a god. When tbh's database was crashing at 1am and I asked him when he was going home, he looked at me and said "The captain goes down with the ship." And overnight, he migrated to a new database (like changing a jet's engine midflight)—and we scaled to 10 million users.
One of my fav things of building a product, is having a channel with other builders. My friend @erikhazzard (who made Tbh with @nikitabier and sold to Facebook) setup a discord brain trust with me and other people to hold folks accountable/share feedback on progress. It's so…

ok, this is getting pretty cool. aligned umap comparing different Matroyshka embeddings of the same data. i have some fun ideas for visually emphasizing the differences coming soon 😁
A few years ago, I matched with a potential CTO co-founder through @ycombinator, and in our first meeting he told me the problem I was trying to solve for was cool, but I wasn't going to be the one solving it with my idea. This guy didn't know me, he didn't know what I knew and…
I want to see how well I can align UMAPs of different embedding spaces. the easiest way to start is just pass in one UMAP as an initialization to the new one. i'm not seeing a huge change in the layout of the initialized UMAP, and there are still big diffs between embeddings
for me its the state management that makes good visualization hard... if i clean up the state this should look slick
