Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: 'It might have been'

-John Greenleaf Whittier

Once you get through the current backlog, I enjoyed the Cradle series by Will Wight. The first book is a bit slower than the rest of the series, but once the pacing picks up it's a fun page-turner with a great cast, charm, and wit.

I'm not sure I see AI removing the usefulness of both breadth and depth of knowledge - specialists are still going to be required. Being able to work full stack is definitely a benefit, but I don't think doing so will be a requirement of every dev job.

Either that or he visits me and his deodorant can be misplaced :3

@pkdibbun.bsky.social helping me with a batch of cookies - it's a good thing we were able to find him an apron 🙂

Thanks @shinigamigirl.bsky.social for the fantastic at-con sketch!

Sounds to me like you have good tastes :3

To all of my friends, who are the ones that make my cons amazing: thank you. Even if we only ran into each other long enough for a brief chat and hug, or my social battery was low at the time, I'm glad I got to see you.

"So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past"

It's been a while since high school fox had to read The Great Gatsby, but that line seems to come back to me more and more over the years.

Hmm. This is reminding me I should pick up more of those shortbread cookies topped with chocolate

Thanks for the reminder. I should get that done before BLFC too

With BLFC's RPG theme this year I've been thinking back to my favorite D&D characters, and considering putting together an outfit like this for the con.
