yep. even AP / NPR etc have to be met with some initial skepticism for everything they publish these days.

I wonder if AP knows their meta data shows a "51 year old"? The article is about the still tragic shooting of 37-year old Alex Pretti, but I'm sure that sub-headline led more than a few folks to believe there was yet another incident, drove some clicks & caused confusion.

When you free solo a 1600' skyscraper & "this is windy" is your assessment of what it's like to top out. I know El Cap was harder, but that was so impressive to witness.

As a veteran, I’m sickened by the lies and the silence. If you have rank, authority, or airtime and you’re not calling for immediate, career-ending accountability for this madness and condemning the manufactured narrative, you’re part of the problem.

I don't know if I should be proud or ashamed of the rapidly approaching 500 hours in Ghost of Tsushima. Just need the raids & shades to clear 100% all possible achievements.

I find the consistency & frequency at which folks that live and work in LA mispronounce "Lompoc" in film & television - contrasted against all the work they put into accents & working with special consultants for things like forensics, medicine, law, etc - so very interesting.

I used to be a unicorn. I have 15 years of product management experience, specialization in data/BI/DX/APIs & both project management & engineering experience prior to that. I don't even warrant a phone screening?

job market sucks

100+ applications THIS WEEK, 50% of those with time spent on role-specific cover letters and almost all requiring a significantlyblower salary... 4 automated rejections, and crickets.

Yes... holidays, but this song's been playing on repeat for months now.

Aaaaaaaaaggggghhhhhhhh!

seems plausible. My junior at University High (Irvine - roughly 400th in US & 50th rated public school in California) tends to have one per semester for 2.5 years running.

the number of places *marketing* veteran perks today but requiring a military ID vs other, more universal verification of service to redeem is astonishing. Even f*ng Jack in the Box uses ID.me - this isn't a difficult hurdle. Just say active duty & retired military if that's what you mean.

Friends! I’m launching a podcast with a dear friend of mine, and you won’t want to miss it. Starting next week, we’ll be chatting about the music we love through the lens of decades of pro music experience.

mini me is looking pretty dapper in his tux & doing some good by hawking raffle tickets to raise money for Meals on Wheels at this years' Irvine National Charity League fashion show. Big sis is in her 5th year & walking in the show as part of the junior class.

Currently at a spot that said (superficially) 5 stations on site, 4 available. One car plugged in. All 4 other CCS connectors in maintenance. So zero. There are zero available.

EVGo is absolutely ridiculous. Chargers available, but most of the time the connector you need is out of service. Session fees. 2x the cost per kwh when you can actually use a spot. We're expected to pay much more for so much less and yet wonder why people are still buying Teslas. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My 7yo has great taste in music, which makes this musician dad very happy, but as he goes crazy singing sir duke at the top of his lungs in the car & tries to clap along, it looks a lot like...

In ace parenting news, I'm pretty sure I hooked my 7yo on Elden Ring today.

I love my Fellow products & think of them in a way like the "Apple" of that niche w/ a strong, consistent design lang, but... I've had this kettle for 4-5yr & only just realized there's a MAX line on the inside because it's on the interior handle side - the one you don't see when holding the kettle.

I’m back. Sort of. The break from social media was great & this’ll be the only place I stay active.

If any OG Tech Threads folks are hanging out here, don’t be shy—say hi.

Fair warning: I’m still mostly a lurker.

Main interests: product/software/tech/data, science/math, comedy, and music.
