I made a starter pack that includes all the folks in the tech industry who are sometimes inclined to jam. The list also includes @questlove.bsky.social because he should be on ALL lists the include musicians for all time. I hope this list expands! go.bsky.app/3ZPr5q4

I want the AI with the weee feees… the bigger GBs… the 3gsw Can I has the AIs?

Having a massive debate with my friends. “Are the foo fighter butt rock” What do you all think?

What am I doing while the world falls apart around me. Well of course I’m playing covers songs to tens of peoples in bars youtu.be/VC7IOEImAkc?...

I hear Al is going to end up a cartoon in a cartoon graveyard. Fucking Al.

It's Monday. A I A I oh?

Had a chance to take my little rocker up to Nashville for the Foo Fighters show. She gets pumped for monkey wrench the same way I did back in 97

Am I an old because I still think TUI demos are the way to go?

This throwback just surfaced. CC @jeremyrickard.com

If you weren't creative enough to do something before AI please don't start doing it with AI. Glares at AI generated music.

Are ya'll ready for a version of US capitalism in which products are stamped with nonAI sort of like the nonGMO fad? Or do we think dumbo will end us all before then?

Free business idea. Pizza Bialys. Pizza bagels are too doughy, but bialy dough is basically pizza dough already. It’s a round slice for people who don’t want crust. Crust-haters might be an underserved market. Someone should feed these weirdos.

If your product pitch is "Here's two things wrong with Kubernetes that we fix with our platform that isn't Kubernetes" and you don't address ALL the things your platform DOESN'T do that k8s does or at least call out the niche where your platform should be used in place of k8s... please do better.

I ran into the tech teacher while picking up the kids at school (k-8th grade) and offered to donate a pile of mini servers I have laying around. She was like “no thanks”. To which I replied “you don’t want to teach any Linux” and her response killed me. “I want them to be happy” 🤣

Decades later my degree in Geophysics is paying off with a simple dinner time question “Quiz me on my science test tomorrow Daddy”. I did not play it cool when we got to the basics of sedimentary vs igneous vs metamorphic rocks. Bowen’s reaction series graphs were drawn. Eyes were rolled.

Silly project I put together this morning to help me take one massive band practice video and break it down into a video per song. github.com/knee-berts/r...

What do you call the type of person who can go a year without booze as long as they don’t go out where other friends have a drink?

In my happy place waiting for things to kick off. Looks like Trey is testing, or trolling us nerds, a new dumble.

Live at 5, pyromaniac gets burned to death while trying to set fire to a gas station.

@mlbiam.dev goddamnit

What a weirdo

Watched this interesting talk on how Facebook is converting Slurm to run on k8s and chuckled a bit when they said "we wrote a wrapper cli around helm in rust to we could abstract helm from the researchers" This is a hilarious application of Rust and I am here for it. youtu.be/UJJ5a2B5S4k?...

@savissavvy.bsky.social is a master of her craft. She can make any scrub sound palpable in an interview while taking raw material taken like Ameenah’s and let it shine. Proof - siliconangle.com/2025/07/29/g...

This article from @wired.com is a bit unclear. Was OpenAI using Claude APIs to benchmark their competition or using it in their SDLC because ChatGPT wasn’t good enough of at code assist? www.wired.com/story/anthro...

Some say AI is sycophantically buttering humans up to please them. I say they are just seasoning their dinner.

AI has only exasperated the true bottleneck in software engineering, PR review.

Lately I can’t seem to get away from tech people talking about how important they are. Phish shows, baseball game, fucking grocery store. NO ONE GIVES A SHIT! Find something more interesting to relate with people about.

Friendly reminder that 95 Glen Falls Reba is the best Reba of all time.

No better way to celebrate Father’s Day than to have a morning jam session in which I’m crushed by the talent of my daughter and sister.

The fascination folks have with slapping a UI in front of some automation as the panacea to big company computer problems continues to make me grumpy.

I'm in a funk. I know I need to be grateful for the general state of my life, but faaack I am struggling to ignore all the nonsense around me and focus on the good right now. I think I need an entire year off the grid.

Hey! You! Do you find yourself missing my charming voice? I’ve got the panacea for you right here where @boredabdel.bsky.social , Jon Li, and I chat about multi cluster workloads on the @kubernetespodcast.com kubernetespodcast.com/episode/253-...

Much respect and gratitude to anyone who has lost a family member who was serving.

Question for my friends that are San Francisco “aware”. What kind of fun thank you gift could I get sent to someone’s house that is foodie adjacent?

The Knicks made me sad tonight.

@bettyjunod.bsky.social I’m in the eye of Sauron.

Sturgil Simpson might be the best live show on earth right now. 3 plus hours of a sick rhythm section, lyrical guitar playing all around, and some tasteful covers.

Knicks! Leggo!

I remember when tech social media would lose its shit when mega tech companies laid of thousands of folks. I guess we are all normalized to it now? Or fear retaliation?

I do not think Trump will be the last facist leader of this country. There is way to strong of a percentage of humans that would rather have a facist leader than admit they were duped into electing one.

@dawestheband.bsky.social more doomscroller less Brad Paisely please

Yooooo! Two more times! Leggo!
