TechCongress is accepting fellowship applications now: techcongress.io/congressional-… It's a really high-impact way to raise the tech savviness of Congress, which is incredibly important.

Folks who are leading or managing teams, how are you fostering a sense of community when folks are doing distributed work? What things have worked well for you or your team?

We could really use 1-2 amazing content strategists at the U.S. Digital Service right now. If you know that person (or are that person!), please get them to apply: usds.gov/apply More info on what to expect: ted.com/talks/matt_cut…

These fellowships bring technical expertise into Congress, which is hugely important and impactful. I hope that USDS alumni and civic tech folks will consider applying.

Black lives matter.

Huge congrats to @ClareMartorana on becoming the next Federal CIO. She's kind, empathetic, and cares most about getting good things done for people. I couldn't be more excited about Clare taking on this role.

Now that I no longer have tons of meetings, it was nice to look through photos of the last two years together with Lindsay Aranoff. My faves are the silly ones and dog pictures. I hope you get to take some time to reflect on the people and things that make you feel happy today.

Amazing: Mina Hsiang will be the next leader of the U.S. Digital Service. She's experienced, incredibly capable, and cares deeply about the work. I'm so excited for USDS, her, and the future. medium.com/the-u-s-digita… What a great time to apply to serve: usds.gov

Canadians, which bank has the best user experience (website or app that works well, strong customer service, and smooth at setting up RRSPs/TFSAs)? Which bank do you prefer and why? Thank you!

Today was my first Canadian snow day! Thanks to Lindsay Aranoff for introducing me to this beast of a winter. Tomorrow's experiment is maple syrup taffy on the snow in our backyard. 🇨🇦❤️❄️

This ♥️ is for Lindsay Aranoff, and so is the big squishy one in my chest.🫀
