Harvested a zucchini this morning that’ll turn into zoodles later. Lettuces are growing and the tomato plant has some flowers on it. Even though we’ve got a sprinkler system in the permanent planters, I’ve been… https://t.co/FwbslSPkWG

In 2010, I had good union health insurance. Obamacare was the law of the land. In November that yr my 1yo son was struck by a careless driver in a crosswalk. After two surgeries and a night in intensive care, he died.

What truly makes our country great is its diversity. I’ve seen that beauty in so many ways over the years. Whether we are born here or seek refuge here, there’s a place for us all. We must remember it’s not my America or your America. It’s our America.

Also, I grew up watching and loving romcoms (and still love and watch them). It means so much to see faces in a romcom that look more like me. It may not seem like a big deal to some, but for me, it makes me feel seen and able to be more myself.

I'm a software engineer with decades of experience. My code is used by hundreds of thousands, and I've taught software engineering in over a dozen countries.

I just had to ask a colleague for help in finding out why my code was not working.

The reason was I hadn't hit compile.

Damn. These replies...

As I was studying yesterday, I was suddenly hit with awe of where I'm at on my developer journey. I started teaching myself on and off (mostly off) five, six years ago. Two years ago, I… https://t.co/mb0H0ar9na
