Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating. This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens. (Even better: Tesla will hate this)

Spent this weekend shredding a bunch of papers that I had been putting off. I gave up and just threw out a bunch of it out. I've gotten to the point where I just don't care anymore. Feels like there is way more info about me online anyway.

#Coffee people talk about their favorite beans, process, tools, etc. I’ve tried some of them and I always just go back to drinking bulk ground coffee in a drip machine. I can taste the difference, but it’s just never enough to justify the extra cost and effort. 🤷‍♂️

I’m giving away five free avatars for #GivingTuesday! Comment and share to enter the giveaway 🙂 I encourage you to find a good cause and give!

Finally decided to permanently mount a security camera that's been precariously mounted on a paint stick slid in the soffit trim. That temporary hack lasted 2 years. It was still working just fine, I just finally got tired of the shame every time I looked at it. 🤪

Easy can be okay too! It builds momentum for the devs. They can get a win and gain confidence to do more of that. It also builds momentum with management who never want to deal with tech debt. They get to see that tech debt doesn’t have to always get in the way of features.

Whenever I lose something and finally find it, I always put it back in the first spot I looked. That way, next time I'll look where I last found it first and move it back there once I find it again. #StuckInALoop

Pro tip - I never use notifications for any social media app. Nothing can ever happen on social media that I need to be notified of. I only see it if I choose to check it. Protects my peace nicely.

Spending some time today sprucing up a library by replacing mocha/chai/sinon with the built in node:test and node:assert. I like having less dependencies! Still working through muscle memory of new apis though.

@astrokatie.com thank you for making the universe podcast. On episode 3 and really enjoying it! While you were discussing universes bumping into one another, I couldn’t help but visualize the way bubbles stick together. Is that a sane way to think about that?
