I work on making corners of the Internet 🔶 2x cancer survivor 🔶 he/him 🏳️‍🌈 daves.bio

Worked on some view transitions with my agent to smooth-out some janky animations. Once we got it perfect it said "enjoy the butter!" Finally, we can agree on something 🧈 ✨

Made a Slack :cmyes: emoji today for a dumb thing I sometimes say and will not be apologizing for releasing it into the world wild web 🤷

An old-fashioned typewriter with CMYES! written in a bold typewriter font on the page scrolling up.

Crossed a pretty satisfying personal milestone today about 20 months in the making: 24 doses of vaccines to retrain my immune system to be resilient in the modern world post-transplant. Very glad to be done with arm punches for a while, very grateful and fortunate to get them.

I'm willing to pay for convenience. Time is precious. Plenty of apps and services I gladly pay for. It's also become convenient to cook right-sized, tailored solutions with workflows, whistles, AI and data where you want them. Made my own podcast client and todo/grocery SaaS 😎

After seven years with Newfold Digital today is my last day. Immensely grateful to the people who made those years so rewarding and excited to start some new adventures next week!

Downside? Turns out I'm priced poshly 😅 Upside? I represent an excellent investment opportunity and have strong market potential 📈 😂

I'm a big believer in using humor and levity near the beginning of most things, so here's a starter slide from a recent slide deck to start this new social ✨

Slide title: Choose your player.

Player 1: AI gonna steal my job, followed by reality TV meme plus "and SSN, and biometrics and..."

Player 2: AI gonna do my job! Followed by meme of guy tapping his temple with knowing smile and "AI chat and video call clone 🙏🏻"

Player 3: ... wait... that fad still goin'? Followed by dog on couch giving side eye and "you sure it's not crypto?"
