I ain't couth but I've got cachet.

Playing drums and making music again.

Listening to Sirius XMU, Soma.fm Indie Pop Rocks, and Hearts of Space.

Mountain biking my way to a torn meniscus or a concussion.
you can't fly when you're standing still, man.

"710+ years of UX design experience with strong end-to-end product thinking and a portfolio demonstrating interaction design, systems thinking, and leadership."

I assume they meant 7-10, but still a funny thing to see first thing in the morning.

The whole "music as background noise" thing gives me a really different perspective on the Jay Haynes book's JTBD example of the ipod "creating a mood with music." In a time where music is only for creating moods, anything more complicated becomes art.. And I guess it always was?

Is the shoegaze revival thing still happening? I just remembered this band, a spinoff of Superdrag, who were a little ahead of the curve with it. theleesofmemory.bandcamp.com/album/sisyph...

Annoyed that I can't search the web for IA or anything with the word "prompt" in it without getting pages of AI BS. Even using quotes in the query.

I really think it's time for an alternate, more governed internet without marketing.

Chart showing the total number of jobs posted to HN's "Who is hiring? posts. There's a COVID effect, with a dip at the beginning and then a slight bump but after July of 2022 the numbers are *dismal*, about 1/3 what they were before COVID. January 2025 was the worst month ever since 2018.

Lorde's Royals has been creeping back into rotation on some of the stations I listen to. I think it's bc of her tour, but it's a pretty good early-fall song. And still maybe one of the most unique pop songs I can remember.

I wonder what's going on with Southwest. I had a flight booked, and got a cancellation notice this morning with no reason. When I tried to call them, it said there was a 2-3 hour wait. I got through directly just a couple of days ago, so I assume lots of people are having problems.

I wonder if there’s like, chiptune slowcore. Synthwave doom? Doomwave?

some kind of illness descended on me while I was driving home from work friday. (isn't that always the way) Seems kind of flu-like. I hope it's not covid.
