It was fun while it lasted.

I'm still ruminating on something I said while explaning why yesterday was such a difficult day at work. “Quality Engineering is as much about improving the engineer as it is about improving the software.”

I’m not sure it is more than just verbal static, but it stuck with me.

I joined the community band yesterday. It’s hard to describe how much I loved disconnecting and only focus on making music with a small group. I’m excited to make this a regular part of my schedule.

This week I started keeping a journal using a ジブン手帳 and am really enjoying the format of it. Appreciating slowing down and writing down my thoughts throughout the day.

[Reedy @Reedy]

I don’t get it.

Long live Prince Tug.

I realized that I’m the kind of DM that pulls punches when the party is close to the end. I like when the heroes win.

Reminder: I am on Mastodon at https://t.co/Gk7ajO41Dh. The, uh, "Fediverse" is a little nerdy but it's getting easier (esp. w/ the Ivory or Ice Cubes apps). It's vibrant; there's life there. Your presence there will improve it for all of us.

@heed242 Here you are, a large photo of my foot in a shoe.

[Reedy @Reedy]

Bought a new pair of walking/running shoes and they are the most comfortable shoe I’ve worn in a long time. It does look like I stepped in unicorn poop though. The colorsare much more vibrant in person.

I remember when we used to limit screen time. Now, today, I let my youngest binge season 4 of Stranger Things in one day.

This is probably the darkest timeline.

My apologies to the API owner for which I spammed because I mixed up `each_slice` with `each_cons`.

Bonnet Brewery. Go forth and drink responsibly. (2/2)

[Reedy @Reedy]

I have been on the Hazy IPA bandwagon for a while, thanks to a friend introducing me to Hapas Brewery in San Jose's Butterfly Wings. Other fantastic NorCal options are Moon Time by Morgan Territory Brewing, Hop Steady by NuBo in Santa Cruz, and Queen Anne's Revenge by Steel (1/2)

Kind of makes me wish I’d shifted my primary server. Oh well, I’ll wait until the stampede is over #dadJoke

My copy of Kissa by Kissa, 4th edition has arrived and it is a work of art. Resisting the urge to abandon my remaining tasks to sit down with it. https://t.co/Ry3AGyIxRS

Thinking it may be time to rewatch Halt and Catch Fire.

[Reedy @Reedy]

Commuting to an office building in my line of work is stupid. This feeling is amplified by forgetting my coffee in my car, sitting in a transit station parking lot.

Deeply considering the realities of what public services using closed technologies such as Twitter and Facebook means in the face of disasters.

Since New Year’s Eve I have relied on CalFire, California Highway Patrol, Santa Cruz County, and PG&E posting notices to these (1/2)
