Another day, another doctor's waiting room where it's just me and 80 year olds
Extremely excited to go on a Big Walk with my friends tonight.
As an art teacher, my working hypothesis is that a young person who signs up for a maker-type class of their own free will and then tries to pass off machine pollution as their own original work is more scared than they are “lazy” or whatever the insult of the day is.
What do Viking needlework, the Apollo guidance computer, & a $7 Etsy crochet pattern have in common? More than you'd think! For this @redmonk.com MonkCast, I chat w @abbeyperini.dev about the tangled history of fiber arts & programming. redmonk.com/videos/abbey... youtube.com/shorts/o1ast...

Nebraska.Code() was full of friends, puppies, and corn. ...so much corn 🤣
"Do the thing you can do instead of beating yourself up over not doing the thing you're not doing" is honestly life-changing, even life-saving, advice.
Leiracal@leiracal.bsky.social · 12mo agoThis concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.
Community conferences just hit different. I'll take 5 super-engaged attendees over 10,000 people barely talking to each other every time.
"At one point, 1/3 of my company could ride a unicycle" is probably the best talk intro fun fact I've ever heard

Nebraskan: where are you from? Me: Georgia Nebraskan: WHY ARE YOU HERE?!?!!
Tomorrow I debut my first piece of fanfiction in front of a crowd. Today I try to remember why I do these things to myself.
Abbey Perini@abbeyperini.dev · last mo.Since getting the idea in January, I have been writing an alternate universe, forbidden love, git human fan fiction for this talk. I have finally completed the first draft, including setup for "Heated Rebasing," the interactive rebasing spin off. 🤣
The rental car company offered a cheap mystery car option. They were using a Honda Ridgeline, a small hybrid pickup truck, to scare people into paying more for a mid sized car. It worked on people in line in front of me. They were very surprised when I was like "That's exactly what I want."

Fast walking around the airport with all my luggage: not even breaking a sweat Putting on compression socks in the airport bathroom: bright red, dripping sweat, dying
Listen, I get it. You need to promote a product you worked hard on ...but you can't send everyone the same message. Not everyone is your target audience either.
Did you know your git stashes pile up in a stack? The newest is always stash@{0}, and that's the one git stash pop grabs first. Here's the mental model.
If you've never read or watched anything about Chaco, comment and then go do so. It's an extremely cool historical site. Not only does it contain the largest buildings built in America before the 1900s, but also many of them were dedicated to some astoundingly detailed astronomy.

It’s an irreplaceable historic & cultural site with 4,700 archeological sites that could be lost to the bulldozers of oil & gas development
This is like Egypt knocking down a pyramid for oil.

I'm working on my demos for my next git talk at Nebraska.Code(). I use @gitkraken.com because I find the tree view easier to follow than other GUIs. It could zoom more than any other GUI, but it was only like 130%... I am elated to see they just added the ability to zoom all the way up to 300%!!!
