I just learned “gay Siri” is close enough to trigger “hey Siri” effectively and will use it from now on.

In high school, my Español class watched an educational telenovela called “Destinos”. We never finished the series and I randomly thought about it today.

Thankfully, Wikipedia has a synopsis of the plot so I do not have to watch all 52 episodes.

I have not once wished I lived back in the US in the 4 years since leaving.

But seeing so many of my American friends my age now getting their first vaccine shots sure is making me jealous.

I am way too clumsy to have wood floors in my home.

And apparently every person who lived in my home before me was also clumsy.

Maybe it’s not me. Maybe wood is a shit material for flooring.

A Jehovah’s Witness put a lot of effort into writing my husband a full page letter about Easter. I almost feel bad for them. Time is such a precious gift to waste trying to convince someone of your personal delusion. Religious proselytizing is a mundane hobby.

The rise in anti-Asian hate crimes and discrimination is awful. I donated to anti-racist organizations. I have retweeted. Some of my Asian friends have posted they appreciate it, but have had enough of non-Asian people checking in on them. I don’t know how to help. #StopAsianHate

Just added 3 new EU alternatives to the US cloud infrastructure companies to https://www.eucloud.tech/

Many of these are OpenStack public cloud providers, which is great, but OpenStack still is not something I can recommend unconditionally.

Is there an OpenAPI Spec doc for WebDAV I can reference?

Someone just wrote me a long email saying “software engineer” is a misnomer and that programmers do not deserve the classification because “real” engineers’ work cannot fail as often as software and programmers do not use scientific principles.

How should I respond?

You want food to be high in fiber, but not taste high in fiber, ya know?

Sometimes the infighting between privacy advocates is more difficult than fighting the surveillance capitalists. Oy…
