Former MSFT, AMZN, NFLX. Type 2 diabetic. Lives in Las Vegas, NV and Mountain View, CA. Plays poker to relax. Points of view my own.
The last few poker tournaments have been frustrating, but that’s poker. I’ve got three major tournaments planned for the rest of the year, and how I do will help me decide how to spend my holidays.
House painted yesterday. Should keep the HOA off my back for the next ten years. Today, I have to replace two AFCI breakers and a brake light.
It’s so much better when I’m home after three weeks away compared to six weeks away.
In Barstow. Tried to remotely turn on my AC in Vegas and the internet is off at my house. So much for hoping to get home to a cool house.
I've been maintaining a project since 2011. I am so sick of it.
I've got a ten-hour drive tomorrow afternoon. As much as I'm not looking forward to it, the events on the other side of the trip will be worth it. I guess I should pick out an audiobook for the drive.
I want to go back to Japan next year. For now, I’ll have to settle for fake Tokyo.
I'm now through ten episodes of "My Dress-Up Darling." Is it wrong to call a series "wholesomely raunchy?"
It took me over a dozen attempts to get past the first ten minutes of the anime adaptation of "My Dress-Up Darling." The awkwardness was palpable.
Spent this morning learning way too much about MSIL and took a nap. Spam calls woke me up.
Nothing says relaxing Sunday like diffing three million lines of MSIL.
I'm just running out of memory dealing with the 32-bit limitations of Terraria. Guess I need to think outside the box.
Finished the first three campaigns in "Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2." It's a fun game, but I really want to disable my character's barks. There's a reason "Left 4 Dead 2" has nearly 20,000 recorded voice lines... "Sharp sticks, motherfucker" is very recognizable, but gets really repetitive.
I'm trying to focus on updating RTResolution to work with the latest Terraria updates and I just can't.
Use of the lowest bidder for an IT contract leads to industrial espionage.

Today was payday so I’m treating myself to some tonkatsu curry don.
I just found out that "SiX: The Musical" is closing on Broadway in January 2027. I'm happy I got to see it live once there, and regret I won't be able to head back to see one of the final shows...
I finished reading “My Dress-Up Darling” on the train ride into work today. One third romance, one third motivation to find your community, one third cosplay crafting tips. Nice series. Looking forward to the epilogue volume and to watching the anime.

As of today, I've been at my new job for 100 days. I've helped stabilize CI runs, reduced CI execution times by 33%, etc. I still feel like a failure.
Three more volumes left of "My Dress-Up Darling," followed by a watch of the anime, and finishing up with the final volume coming out shortly.
Some states with legalized sports betting refused to allow wagers on LIV Golf events because they were afraid that it was a money laundering enterprise instead of a legitimate league. Do with that information what you will.
The New York Times@nytimes.com · 2w agoFrom @theathletic.com: LIV Golf informed the majority of its staff on Wednesday that they will be laid off next week, a spokesperson confirmed. The PGA Tour has also made it clear it has no current plans to welcome back any LIV stars seeking to leave. nyti.ms/4qBSo7I
Right now, I commute to work three days a week on Caltrain. Takes me 90 minutes each way and costs me $51 a week. I had to drive to the office yesterday. Took 105 minutes to get to work. EV charging was $6 for the trip, and parking was $45, for a cost of $51 for the day.
The best way to honor those who we have lost is to live a life they would have respected.
