With the rain I get it, but this is the emptiest I have seen TQL stadium as an at-home spectator.

The Bailey is undeterred and as lively as ever. 💙🧡

watching soccer and forgot everyone else is still watching basketball.

Well, it’s Ground Hog Day…again.

Good to know! I just got a Steam Deck and hardware repair has been on my mind with a recent issue with a console controller.

Hi

Last week @garrettdimon.com added @bsky.app as an option for podcast social links on @fireside.fm and today I shipped it.

Hoping to add auto posting of new episodes soon as well.

Well, now I’m hoping it has to do with candy cigarettes.

Suggesting people are advising against relying heavily on the popular JS architecture you work on because they're stuck in 1995 is an incredibly out of touch statement and doesn't exactly instill me with confidence that the actual issues will be resolved anytime soon.

I hope this email finds you happy and content upon all your paths of living.

Same. Been on a kick of the southwest salad for the last few weeks.

My kid has gotten in to drawing and painting lately. He gets frustrated that his attempts don’t turn out the way he imagined, so we’ve talked a lot about the gap between what we can do and what we want to do, and the only way to close that gap is to practise.

Well, I might have to try turning on the mini map.

Oh snap we've made it. Our first podcast episode already has 52 downloads. 1 of those was me and my mom was probably another, but that's still 50. haha.

Thank you for selecting my morning work music for me, James. That is an excellent album.

Building an Effective Dev Portfolio A free 70-page ebook that teaches you how to build a developer portfolio that appeals to employers

📚 Did you know I self-published a free book about building portfolio sites for developers looking for work?

It’s very short, about 70 pages, and contains a bunch of little tips and tricks I learned when I was doing career coaching.

@echowolfmusic.bsky.social @trentwalton.bsky.social Thanks for all the amazing music. Right now I have Primer (Slowed) on repeat and it’s getting me in the zone to do some dev work while waiting on my kid’s practice.

But it’s being so upright.

sometimes it feels like we forever altered the trajectory — and the color scheme — of the world's "free shipping" icons

MacOS heavy memory usage alert with Figma using 19.93 GB of memory.

I’m trying to grade my design students’ work, but slowing down as @figma.com seems to have a memory leak issue. I only have six students and I’ve had their files open all day in the background on my machine so I can periodically work on grading. This hit as I was working on the last one.

Been calling this app The Big Buhlouski in my head and just said it out loud to my spouse when she asked what I was up to.

After a week of playing Balatro I finally finished a run. I get why it has a game of the year nomination. It’s fun, strategic, and can be played casually.

I honestly don’t know if I would have given it a shot if it wasn’t on Apple Arcade.

Right, right. I should have mentioned that.

I have game consoles hooked up to each TV and I use the HomePods for over-the-air TV as well via the ARC.

I’ll add that I have found this feature more reliable than “Hey Siri”

I have that setup on two TVs. The TV must support ARC with an Apple TV hooked up to that HDMI port. But, it’s been flawless for me for a couple years.
