James is thoughtful, caring and an excellent writer. He understands what excellence looks like, and knows how to make it happen. I would hire him in a heartbeat. If you are hiring, you should talk to James. Like, now.

Any smaller tech companies looking to get their financial operations in order? I’m open to new possibilities…


Javan is a gem of a human, and if you are looking to hire someone who is thoughtful, kind and smart, you should put his name at the top of your list. Working with him was a joy and I learnt so, so much.

Hi friends, I’ve had a nice long break and I’m ready to get back at it. If you’re familiar with my work and know of any interesting job openings that align, hit me up! 🙇‍♂️ javan.us

📣 After a long (wonderful! necessary!) break, I’m ready to dive back into full-time work. If you know of/work for an awesome, mission-driven org seeking a content lead/senior editor, please holler! 📣 RTs appreciated — thanks everyone! 🙏


I would like to wish a very nice day to everyone youtube.com/watch?v=BrMw-v…


Fuck. I predicted tomato guy.

I thought about becoming a thought leader, but I think thought gardener might be more my jam. Growth comes from dealing with shit, most of my ideas will die, there's a season for all things 🧠👨🏻‍🌾🌻

it's great to see more tech companies abandoning whiteboarding interviews. but you know what i'd really love to see? more companies adding a diversity + inclusion interview to their hiring practices. just imagine the ways in which that single change could impact our workplaces.


Um, I'm a little overwhelmed by the sheer number of lovely messages and offers of support and help. I'm going to get back to all of you, but for now, thank you, you are lovely 💚


After 9 years, I said goodbye to Basecamp today. I'm looking for new adventures, likely in support, trust & safety, privacy or communications. My DMs are open, and my email is in my pinned tweet - I'd love it if you said hi 💚


I helped to write basecamp.com/about/policies…. I'm proud of that work. The topics it covers are about as deep as topics get. We made a choice not to shy from doing the difficult work, to have the hard conversations. And we did them with kindness, and warmth, because they matter.


Today was rough. I’m sad.


Jorge is too kind and too humble! This was such a solid base to work from. @jorgemanru do you think it would be helpful if I wrote about why I tweaked what I did?

"I love remote work but I miss the serendipitous moments in the office when I caught up with a coworker while getting coffee and had a breakthrough." Okay, let's talk about this. Starting with: Those weren't truly serendipitous moments 👇

Given recent events, the coming inauguration of the new US administration, and the role technology plays, we feel it's necessary to reiterate that Basecamp products are not to be harnessed for harm, whether mental, physical, personal or civic. Thoughts: m.signalvnoise.com/reiterating-ou…
