This is what police have been doing to black Americans since forever. Enough of the "this isn't who we are." You're now noticing because it's white people.

I need you all to understand something for those of you who think you know what this black woman who has lived in racist America really thinks. I know this is hard for you all, but some of us saw this coming for years, decades even. So understand, I am not being snarky. I am grieving.

New profile pic in honor of the combo mother and baby goat Phee standing on everything. She got the players on the team that just eliminated her saying Phee speaks for me. Maya's true descendant OK?!

Hugs to the people who've been watching Phee since college. She's had such an unlucky trajectory. From those heartbreaking FF losses, the injuries, the being less appreciated even at UConn, to the draft. Been rooting for the wild cats almost 2 decades, they'll be OK. But that injury 💔 Hugs, Phee

I don't know how the tech work culture got that way. The things that are rewarded the most are refactoring to the newest thing the fastest. Being communal and understanding how changing things affect others and trying to account for that somehow gets you point deductions.
Call it glue work if you want.

But I’ve held more things together with care, clarity, and a spreadsheet than most leaders ever will with a roadmap.

Recently learned about this band/group? Trousdale and they have a song named "Always, Joni" and the lyrics are a bunch of Joni Mitchell song titles. It's the loveliest most creative tribute I've heard in a while.

Otherwise, happy Thursday I hope. That and it's go Lynx and Sarah Strong. Still 😌

Happy Thursday, sky folk. Looking for a good resource on tuning jdbc I/O tasks and data flow params for a beam migration pipeline I'm working on. I've tried all the obvious things, but it still takes about 2 hours on something I think shouldn't. Also already checked DB settings, locks and such. 😔
