a while back i replaced two 23” monitors on my desk with one 34” curved widescreen. the curve has taken some getting used to, but for three full size windows side-by-side it’s 🔥

(bonus: you get to creep my messy desk!)

i’m so past wanting to dunk on people who are following junk science. they have been duped by politically motivated actors.

i want them to be well. i want them to trust the chorus of legitimate scientific voices advocating for their wellness. for their own sake and all of ours.

in the background of my
previous photo: this lamp. the original shade wasn’t made from UV resistant plastic i guess; it brittled and cracked. i jokingly made a replacement shade out of a cottage cheese container.

the cottage cheese container has lasted for 8 years so far.

TIL after airpods pro read you a text message, they listen to you and transcribe what you are saying as a reply to the sender. I was walking my dog and didn’t intend to reply to my friend asking if they had to pee and would they just pee and stop sniffing those weeds and please

For what it’s worth, I was involved in a “Resource Action” which is a nicer way to say “staff reduction” or “layoff.” I was as surprised as most of my coworkers and acquaintances were when I told them.

I started this week with my last day at IBM. I’m regrouping, dusting off my résumé and catching up on the latest dev trends.

I will be looking for work as I continue to get my head into dev mode again. You have all been posting a lot of material to absorb 😃
