My first teaching job out of college was in a very small town. This is what they called “muddin’” where you drive into mud and see if you can drive back out.
Truckee, naturally
Watching some of the live NASA updates for Artemis II and I keep thinking, “I hope they used the good tape.”
My very first time going on a rollercoaster with loops and the guy behind me yelled, "HOLD ONTO YO' GLAAASSES!!"
do you ever have things that someone has said to you that live forever in your head (non-serious edition)? some older boomer hippie guy said “hahmmus gives you fahts” to me 26 years ago at a free fridge and i think of it every fucking single time i buy hummus to this day.
My noise cancelling headphones are no match for the accordion playing in the airport. WHYYYYYY
I got to fly to TX over the weekend to see Ben Folds perform with one of my best friends. He is still my favorite and I was definitely crying at several points. It's so amazing to hear such a breadth of music -- it was his own "theme and variations" on his songs which was absolutely incredible.
Why is the quality of phone hold music so bad? You'd think with technological advances it wouldn't sound tinny, robotic, like I'm underwater, and have inconsistent volumes. 🧐
Yesterday I made some raaaaaaaaaaaspberry sorbet the kind you find in the grocery store
Today's the day! I'm updating a project for work from Node v. 18 to the latest stable version and then updating each dependency individually and testing to see if anything breaks!
Him: Would you like to go out for dinner for our anniversary? Me: Yes, where would you like to go? Him: Well, we could go to IHOP - the kids would like it. Me: Have you heard of Dee-vor-chay? Him: Ooh that sounds interesting - is it Brazilian?
What's up with Amazon advertising "local" products to me? Seems like a marketing ploy.
I never, ever want to hear again that women are too emotional to be leaders.
I'm upgrading a site from the Next.js pages router to the app router and switching files from JS to TS.... Currently playing whack-a-mole with random linting errors.
(alarm rings) Me: "Hey Google, cancel." Google: "It looks like you have 46 alarms. Do you want me to cancel the...." 🫣🤭
I had a blast last night at the live taping of "Syntax" in Denver! I got to meet @wesbos.com, Scott, and CJ and network with a lot of other people at the event! It was so much fun. My favorite part was watching them do the CSS battle.
I was trying to search for a GIF and typed "Guillermo del" and intellisense suggested "taco" as the next word. Guillermo del taco - that's a new one!
I like the idea of zip closure on food bags to keep things fresh. I hate the execution.
I am not a fan of Google opening links within Gmail and then when trying to login to that website they send a code to my email but if I go back to my email, I start the loop all over again. Anyone know if you can default Gmail to open links in the browser instead?
I got to build a micro React project that will be embedded in a Squarespace site - that was cool :) Also, didn't know that was possible! I've embedded a web page before but not a separate app.
Always do your due diligence before jumping to conclusions.
What tech documentation do you use the most? For me, it's Tailwind CSS.
I love listening to Lofi Girl when I'm coding... I just can't take any songs that have phasing from right to left.
