Don’t forget to pay attention to your local elections in these coming months and years. Don’t grow apathetic, vote (pretty please).

Seen a few folks astonished by my lack of support for ChatGPT and similar. Because AI, right?
Yeah, no. What we have right now is glorified autocorrect. Glorified autocorrect that takes the energy of an entire city to do what it does, plus half of Lake Erie to cool down while it's doing it.

Yes. Lol. Mostly if I see something I want to pop the CSS hood on.
When someone gives you the link to their personal/small business site, do you instantly go and inspect it in the browser? Or am I a special breed of dork?

Huge red flag any time a company refers to their workforce as family. Not only can family members be dysfunctional AF, this is clearly a business. Just say that and treat your people well.

Finally replaced my airpods. I have to have them for flights. Also need them for the days I want to work out of the coffee shop instead of home. Airpod pro’s noise cancellation is elite, but the latest version of noise cancellation for the newest non-pro airpods will suffice.

Asking questions is an amazing thing. It's a way to learn & fill in your knowledge gaps. However, to build trust with teammates, do your due diligence before reaching out to ask a question. You don't want ppl to feel they're constantly answering questions you could have easily answered on your own.

I have been walking around with this slide for four years, trying to explain to anyone who would listen that we are choosing the same path right now.

The thing that separates a useful tool from an abuse of data is, and always remains, CONSENT. Does the tool take someone's work and put it outside their control? If it does, it's theft, and you should not do it to someone who has not indicated they don't consider that use theft.
