Yesterday, I was reminded of my first contribution to @GitLab back in December 2013. Less than two years later, I officially joined the team as the second support engineer.

I’m filled with gratitude and pride for how far we’ve come.

This! 🛠

@jamielynn261982 Exact same way they handled it when I was in elementary in the 90’s. Parent permission required. In a very small, conservative rural community.

@SenatorFischer I really can't imagine your boss supporting paid family leave. No handouts, amirite!?

Good morning, Nebraska!

@MW_Royers I would presume this also 'solves' the question of the legislature's ombudsman offices being shut out?

[Drew Blessing @drewblessing]

@mwfeller @Block16Omaha West, you say? Yes, Kearney would love to chat. 😉

[Drew Blessing @drewblessing]

@tdub909 @andrewwegley @NebraskaSOS Exactly this

[Drew Blessing @drewblessing]

We had a fun morning at the KACM Bubble Run. @KearneyPolice officer got in on the foam fun and was talking with the kids. Love the community outreach! @ChiefWaughKPD @SgtSmall335

@Ubiquiti You really need to revise your RMA policy. I realize home/small businesses devices aren't seen as "mission critical". But they are to us. I can't be without my core switch for weeks, or my doorbell for that matter. Charge credit cards until returned or something.

Exciting day for Kearney! This marks more than 2 years of hard work by our board of directors. All started by the clear vision and dedication of our executive director! I can’t wait until we welcome our first residents. Thanks DED for your help making this happen, too.

Kearney Community Sustainable Housing hosted a groundbreaking event for their new multifamily rental housing project. DED is a proud investor and partner on this new construction development, awarding $1 million to KCSH through the 2022 Pandemic Relief Housing Program.

@RosserJobs I’ve both had to cancel on interviewee and had them not show up. I always rescheduled and didn’t hold it against them.

[Drew Blessing @drewblessing]

@RosserJobs Interviewer should notify person they’ll be late. May not be possible in emergency. Interviewee should feel free to leave after 15 minutes IMO. Then interviewer can contact, explain and invite to reschedule.

Idealistic but gives grace while respecting people’s time.

@OpenSky_Policy No concern about the 0% or inflation piece? I need to read the finer details but that part seems concerning for entities that have no other tax revenues.

[Drew Blessing @drewblessing]

@MKBHD I'd buy it.

[Drew Blessing @drewblessing]

@nmaestas Oh. My. Goodness. 😆
Alton is a national treasure. Except that time he made that deeply offensive video about chili and cinnamon rolls.

@Mattlinn01 @MSSMax Same. I have long wondered why none of the 4+ weather apps I have had a CarPlay app. Dodging storms is pretty routine when traveling in the Midwest in the summer.

@treylorswift @krishnanrohit But why do we care? Education should prepare for life and jobs. My employer doesn’t use a key logger to make sure I do everything manually. They encourage responsible use of AI. Schools must adapt.

[Drew Blessing @drewblessing]

@krishnanrohit I stressed this when our school adopted an AI policy. We can’t rely on automated tools to detect AI. Teach students to use AI responsibly and if necessary use an alternate assessment of skill if AI abuse is suspected.
