I have decided I am going to pray to MacKenzie Scott until she buys the Seahawks. Turn all of Seattle into a Ted Lasso episode.

Maroon 5 is a god awful band taken from the last dregs of whatever youth Gen X was under the illusion they had left in 2005.
ECMAScript EXTRA-SPECIAL excitement 😉 🚨🚨🚨 IT'S ABOUT TIME! 🚨🚨🚨 Congrats to @ptomato.name on advancing Temporal to Stage 4 at @tc39.es today 🎉 Temporal is the replacement for the JavaScript Date API 👍
Jason Williams@jason-williams.co.uk · 5mo agoTemporal is now Stage 4 at TC39 🎂🎂🎂 Thanks to all the other champions of JavaScript's new date-time API. It has been a wild ride over many years! I wrote a blog post explaining how we got here 📜 bloomberg.github.io/js-blog/post...
![Code example showing the usage of Temporal.ZoneddateTime
```js
// London DST starts: 2026-03-29 01:00 -> 02:00
const zdt = Temporal.ZonedDateTime.from(
"2026-03-29T00:30:00+00:00[Europe/London]",
);
console.log(zdt.toString());
// → "2026-03-29T00:30:00+00:00[Europe/London]"
const plus1h = zdt.add({ hours: 1 });
console.log(plus1h.toString());
// "2026-03-29T02:30:00+01:00[Europe/London]" (01:30 doesn't exist)

Any US based software engineers interested in working on tools for aerospace engineering? I have quite a few roles I'm about to open. Particularly focused on people who love building great product experiences and infra folks.
Guilty pleasure - listening to Dave Ramsey and John Deloney clips. The people who call - holy crap! I'm actually surprised Deloney exists in right wing media because his advice is usually pretty good.
Some days at this job be like "I'm gonna need you to talk to the other Rhodes scholar who works here because I am out."
Just read a list of Bay area bands, and while I wish there was a political statement to choosing Green Day, I think they are literally just the most popular. The other contenders would maybe be Dead Kennedy's, Counting Crows, Steve Miller Band and Stevie Nicks. It's all left leaning.
We have entered a time when the grocery store won't sell you fresh cranberries or fresh peaches. This is basically hell.
Past two months have been a saga of moms illness, holidays, my illness and business travel. Going to start texting my friends to do things and hope they still exist 😅
I got a cold December 19th that lasted until Jan 4 or so. I started another cold today. Fie upon Winter
Winter is full of clear air turbulence and virus. Cancel it all.
At my mom's house, updating her list of prescription drugs. It is as if her printer has ghosts. 15+ years of software experience but I don't fix printers. This will have to wait until Matt gets here in two days.
Main lesson from driving Seattle to Rochester MN in December - Montanans should be single issue voters on plowing. Drove at 40mph for six hours over thick ice. The MINUTE I go over the Wyoming boarder - BOOM PLOW. And it's not like WY is a blue state that loves public works.
Apparently America is made great through ugly out of date fonts. www.reuters.com/world/us/rub...
Rubio stages font coup: Times New Roman ousts Calibri
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Tuesday ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor Antony Blinken's decision to adopt Calibri ...

There are many pies, but if there is a god she eats only one. Pecan pie. It's God's pie. She's eating it now.
Just booked a corporate dinner at Marlaina's in Burien - great restaurant and the owner personally called to work out the menu. After booking I found this on their website. Some small businesses really deserve your money. Glad I went with this one!
Midwest fear of running out of butter is in full force today
I have spent so much time surrounded by people who have 6 to 15 dogs that I'm now like "maybe I should have like 8 dogs"
For veteran's day, my USAF coworker is calling us and we are learning facts about the nuclear weapons. It will forever be nuclear facts day.
I've seen quite a few articles about declining birth rates and his birth rates are declining even in very family friendly countries lately. I think the answer is simply "people are happier with fewer kids". Not sure if society can accept that.
Youngest kid started wrestling. He also does cross country and swim. None of the rest of the family can figure out how he's normal. Blows our minds.
The most important restaurants to me are those that combine craft cocktails with food from anywhere in Asia. Harder to find than you would expect since it's intrinsically fusion. But I love it.
Pretty sure I already have all the PNW seasonal depression. It's gonna be a long winter.
I quite like Bad Bunny even though I don't understand any Spanish and I'm very very confused by how this is hard for people. Like, I'd probably like his music even more if I did understand Spanish. But its good - anyone can tell.
There's really nowhere better to work than a well funded startup finding traction in a solid market other than developers. "Tier 1" big name tech is frankly exhausting to work for. "Tier 2" is where it's at.
🎃Seattle Area Folks - meet THE GREAT PUMPKIN! My local breed club is auctioning off this 400-pound beast of a pumpkin to raise funds for dog shows and other Aussie events. There has to be a perfect buyer for this delightful giant squash! 💲Bid at www.32auctions.com/AussiePumpkin
