USA Men's hockey lost to Canada. Not in the game but in moral decency. Amazing lighting your legacy on fire that quick to be celebrated by monsters and rapists. Clowns the lot.

It blows my mind how married couples do not have a shared favorite spatula. (And yes I am aware this was a bit of sorts on Modern Family, amongst others. Still true!)

Anyone who has had to suffer through AI chatbots for customer support can tell you 1000% that AI is not replacing anyone. My fear is how bad the market is gonna crash from all these AI enablers. AI does something much like blockchain, and the fact that we are hanging our economy on it is a disaster.

As someone who leads very large orgs and believes in broad views this is hard. But watching people destroy things important to me in DC and murder in cold blood my fellow Americans I can't stay silent.

My favorite part about Republicans is how much they hate voting. They are deeply aware that being a Nazi is unpopular so it's easier to attack voting (Nazi position) and so it has become part of their engrained behavior. It shows the absolute failure of their beliefs in not having confidence in idea

I was and am really proud of my physique when I turned 40. I am however realizing that was a lot of hard work out of the privilege of wfh. Now that I commute 3 hours a day I am firmly entering my dad bod era. Hopefully my wife appreciates the six pack that only shows up when I suck my gut in.

Did y'all know they sell cheese trays at Safeway? And like, there is no limit on it, you can take as many as you want. You can have your own personal cheese tray 7 days a week. I know, mind-blowing, right?! Excuse me while I sample some Asiago and Extra Sharp Cheddar together....

I can't think of a movie that changed my early life quite as much as Hackers. I wanted nothing more than to be one of those cool hackers. I wanted to explore everything a computer had to offer. This song takes me back to the 386 and dial-up days. www.youtube.com/watch?v=33Wu...

The best choice I have made this year so far was disabling my Facebook. Realizing just how pointless it is, and glad it is not part of my life routine anymore.

Personal view, I think all engineers should have to work retail sales early in their career. Mainly because it helps you understand how hard it is to build products for the masses. It forces you to have to have broad tailored views on what makes a product work.

Hot take: if you ever want to see how pointless football is, watch a broadcast with no ads. You'll spend more time watching stadium crowds than football. #RugbyForever

I am not sure how many times I have listened to this song, but to my post earlier about my toxic trait, it is very high www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8ZR...

๐Ÿ“ฆ Block Exotic Sub-dependencies

Want to secure your dependency tree?

Enable blockExoticSubdeps: true. This prevents transitive dependencies (deps of deps) from resolving "exotic" protocols like git+ssh: or direct https: tarballs.

Keep the weird stuff out of your deep dependency graph. ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Boy howdy do I regret upgrading to Tahoe. Whoever signed off on this design system at Apple had to have been drunk.

Dear Google, all I still want for Xmas are Google One accounts with custom domains and a migration path off workspaces. Please and thanks.

To my Amazon/AWS friends, hang in there. And if you were impacted just remember your job does not define your worth.
