Setting up the shop computer with five year old eBay finds. Looks like a movie prop, works great in hazardous environments, tons of ports. Total cost around $420.

Life choices: Check the box and silently get work done, or... Don't check the box and start my career as a windows-sucks-for-dev social media influencer?

I want to learn a song on guitar for my daughters wedding. I'll start with basic music theory.

TIL I have a "bizarre laundry fetish" because I use the hotel laundry on vacation. Normal people pack enough clothes to make it thru the whole trip.

Prompt of the day: rewrite these data sync jobs as bulk load jobs taking into account transactions and logging number of records processes.

The best advice for folks building internal apps is "don't build frameworks" just pound out the code and don't get tricky.

I wish we had a third mobile platform that was more open and embraced web standards. The two we've got are increasingly close and locked into app stores.

Claude is vulgar

Manditory service would fix a few of our nations woes. Basic civic literacy, basic health literacy, working in diverse populations. It would never happen of course, but I can see how it can help ground a population with a combined identity.
