@DrClownPhD 1) The end cuts are fine assuming you hold the ruler perfectly parallel. Won’t happen. 2) The blade is typically 1/8th an inch wide. If you leave the line, you’ll be 1/8th short on the outer wall. If you take the line, your return will be 1/8th short.

A lot of great perspectives shared from our partners. Good to hear new ideas; fresh takes.

[Hammerspace @Hammerspace_Inc]

@Hammerspace_Inc had the great privilege of bringing out many of our awesome partners to join in our sales kickoff event in Austin this year!

While they were with us, they took part on a multitude of events such as fireside chats with our team, and of course, our annual Partner Pavilion. This was a wonderful opportunity to have #TeamHammerspace connect with our partners to share insights, and learn about the work we are doing together.

Thank you so much to our wonderful partners for your sponsorships - we were thrilled to have you join us!

@r0ck3t23 Software Engineers use AI in much the same way and rely on their coding expertise to better refine any AI generated code output from their prompts. No different than medical and legal pros. This is a distinction without a difference IMHO.

If you can be anything, be kind.

[A Soldier's Whisper @SoldiersWhisper]

I locked the classroom door and turned to twenty five high school seniors, the Class of 2026. They were supposed to be the digital generation, confident and plugged in. Instead, staring back at me under the glow of hidden phones, they just looked tired.

I asked them to turn their phones off. Not silent. Off.

On my desk sat an old olive green military rucksack that belonged to my father. For weeks they ignored it, assuming it was just junk. They didn’t know it was the heaviest thing in the building.

I dragged it to the center of the room. Thud.

I told them we weren’t doing the Constitution that day. I handed out blank index cards with three rules. No names. Total honesty. Write down the heaviest thing you are carrying.

At first, no one moved. Then Sarah, straight A student, perfect everything, started writing. Then Marcus, the football captain, hunched over his card and wrote just three words.

One by one, they folded their cards and dropped them into the bag.

I zipped it shut and told them this bag was who they really were. Then I began to read.

A father pretending to go to work after losing his job. A student carrying Narcan for their mom. A kid mapping exits everywhere. A teen trapped between parents screaming about politics. A girl with thousands of followers crying alone at night.

Then the last card.

I don’t want to be here anymore. I’m just waiting for a sign to stay.

Marcus was crying openly. Sarah was holding the hand of a boy who usually sat alone. The cliques were gone. They were just kids carrying too much.

I told them the bag would stay in the room so they wouldn’t have to carry it alone anymore.

When the bell rang, no one rushed out. Every student stopped and touched the rucksack on the way out. I see you.

That night, a parent emailed me. Their son hugged them for the first time in years and asked for help.

Everyone you pass is carrying something you can’t see. Be kind. Be curious. Ask the people you love what they’re carrying. You might save a life.

My wife and I were reflecting on this. The fact that when you started work-life (“adulting”) you maybe had 2 or 3 roommates to split costs; packed a lunch everyday; knew wherever there was a happy hour with $1 beers and free wings. And…having the time of our lives.

[Mike Riley @MSR11]

I hope @mikeroweworks sees this. Just incredibly cool and you can’t watch this and not wish you were at a bonfire with these guys…

[Papageorgio @gecffmn]

Good afternoon my friends!

Let me introduce myself to my new friends—and my old ones too!
I’m George, 58 years old, and I work hard for a living. I’ve been a proud UA member for nearly 20 years.

I come from a small town in West Virginia where manners still matter—we say “please” and “thank you,” and we still hold doors open for strangers.

I’ve voted for Trump three times, and I have no regrets. I’ll always stand with law enforcement, honor our military, and I will never kneel.
