Pleasantly surprised to see my son playing with a female avatar on Fortnite. He said he prefers the girl skins because they have a smaller target. When we were kids my brother would never have chosen a girl character. Interesting how perceptions have changed! #girlpower
Coming at you live from the ACL stage… we’re geeking out on robots and AI with @JoshuaBaer and @jeffcardn from @Apptronik at the @TexasLyceum#PubCon25 event. Can’t wait until the day when I have my own personal robot to do my house chores and make the human experience better!
That time you were having so much fun with your kids at Space Camp while simultaneously being terrified that there’s a tornado watch in Huntsville, AL. 😱
It’s my last week off before starting a new job, so naturally I’m cramming in a bunch of house chores while I still have free time. There’s something so satisfying about power washing away the dirt!
Investing some time in learning new tricks and had fun completing an intro prompt engineering course. Anyone have recommendations for other non-technical, low cost GenAI micro-learning classes to explore?
@JoshuaBaer Still here because this is where I keep a pulse on my startup network (great people like you!) from life before corporate. But, the rest of the platform is questionable 🤨
@jefielding Agree! There is so much noise and I am tired of vetting point solutions, which offer incremental value on a subset of my problems but don’t solve any of my problems at scale. Large corporate clients have no ability to integrate 20 different solutions. We want 1 or 2 that scale.
Did you know small businesses (defined as 500 employees or fewer) made up 99.9% of all
businesses in the U.S. in 2018 and employed 47.5 percent of U.S. employees? Veterans own nearly 2 million businesses, which employ more than 5 million Americans! https://t.co/rHcYAHC9Fn
@billmcneely Is that good? As an occasional Uber rider, I am surprised. I tip every time and expect that everyone else should too. I have no doubt you are providing quality service and driving.
I didn’t know this was even possible, but it makes me so proud! Military spouses are always at the ready to step up to lead and protect the home front. You’ve got this, Fanny! 👏🏻🫶🏻💪🏻
Great moment in the Texas House. Because Rep @JaceyJetton has been called up to active military service, Speaker @DadePhelan swears in Jetton’s wife, Fanny Jetton, to serve until his safe return #txlege
In honor of the determined suffragists who made great sacrifices so that women could have the right to vote, check out this educational video on the 19th Amendment and do your part to be an informed voter! https://t.co/kFTMaXZayW
So proud to be supporting and celebrating my fabulous friend, Aquila Mendez-Valdez, as she is being recognized as a 40 under 40 honoree! #SABJ#40under40awards https://t.co/FeBUI2QnJe
V is for Veteran. Every day is a great day to thank our veterans for their selfless service and sacrifice. Today I honor my husband, Andy, who continues his service as a civilian first responder, along with my brother, stepsister, and ACP mentee. #USAAemployee#VisforVeteran
