I am in the final stages of edits and editorial design for my remote async work zine and I wish I did not have to go to sleep because I want to finish it so badly.

I cannot wait to share this with you all! ✨

Just watched the series finale to “Halt and Catch Fire”.

It captured an era of computing and the Web before me and yet captured everything I love about working in tech today.

I will never understand the enterprise sales approach of feigned outrage from sales people when I do not respond to their third unsolicited email pitching me something I have no interest in.

I woke up thinking it was Monday and longing for another day off. I thought my phone was wrong when I opened my work calendar. Then, delight.

I mostly use search to launch apps on my phone instead of hunting for the icon or scouring folders.

I swear 1 in 5 iOS searches do not include the exact match of the app name in the results.

“Get the vaccine available to you, not the one you want,” feels like the same sort of “fool the sheep to protect the flock” recommendation give at the start of the pandemic of “you don’t need masks” in order to protect the supply of masks to frontline workers.

EU companies are in for a shock as the best software engineers leave to work for US-based companies offering much higher salaries and remote work.

Microsoft announced a new laptop in 2021 that still uses a proprietary port for charging, still does not have Thunderbolt port, and uses a CPU a generation behind.

Just tweeting in case you were wondering if the company was still disconnected from reality.

SolarWinds sponsored a post in my LinkedIn newsfeed about its rebranding as “N-able”.

I commented that I hope the were becoming less “hack-able”.

Their brand manager got defensive and really wishes everyone would forget how their ineptitude put US national security at risk.
