I'm thrilled to be speaking at @allthingsopen.bsky.social this year!

If you've heard me talk about conferences, you've heard of ATO. I've met so many friends from attending ATO events. 2025 is going to be great and I'm excited to be part of it!

🎉 awesome! I'll be there too. Looking forward to catching up!

This is great! I've been adding emojis to my environment names 😅

This is great advice and they genuinely want to meet you too.

A home garden viewed from a corner angle. Raised garden beds growing tomato, pepper, and okra plants are in the foreground. A long, walk through trellis is in the background with beans and cucumbers beginning to climb the sides. Behind them are blueberry and blackberry bushes.

Garden update since it's been a while.

Garlic was just harvested over the weekend. Blueberries are almost ready. Tomato plants are enjoying the cooler start this summer while the peppers are a bit behind. Okra, cucumbers, and beans are coming along too.

I'm on Android and I'm also team small phone. If Palm would make a refresh with modern specs I'd buy it immediately

I do this for every trip out of paranoia that the one time I don't will be when everything is working against me. I'd rather be early and bored than late and stressed 😆

This was a casual conversation at Remix Conf for me

I'm rooting for you 💪🏻

What bumps did you hit? I've been coding in WSL since it first released and love it. I'm typically doing JS/TS, Rust, and Go though

Ok this is the first app I've seen that makes me reconsider YNAB. Do you know of any features it's missing? May be doing some reading later...

I opened YNAB to look at my list of subscriptions and for that reason I have to say YNAB
