Excited I got my first run in since the Great Thaw of NYC commenced :)

Signed up to do a half-marathon this May with my best friend from high school. It will be his first!

Less than twelve weeks left! This half isn't going to train itself 😅

I wonder if there could be some synergy with oxa.dev from @continuous.foundation and colleagues and @standard.site teams. Both are looking to coordinate across projects to have a shared architecture for content.

It seems like blogs could use a subset of the specification from OXA.

This is a great sketch. Not just Ashley Padilla's performance, which is perfect, but the writing as well.

I wrote about the importance of buttermilk's role in the breakfast kitchen while creating this comforting smothered, country-fried steak biscuit. A little bit of acid goes a long way to creating a fantastic sandwich experience. Click through to get the recipes.
Smothered country-fried steak biscuits
I took a deep dive into buttermilk and its important spot in the breakfast kitchen. Spoiler alert: it's very useful in creating a great, fast-food-style fried steak biscuit.

As children grow, their brains get better at reading emotions from faces. Young children focus on features, while older children and teens also use areas for interpreting meaning.

For my consulting work, I have been using Found for my banking needs and I've been really pleased with it.

I've also been building @diasporabooks.nyc with my friend and we are using Found as well. Managing a single login was very cumbersome. But I just found out they now have teams. Sweet tool!

Reading this article and came across this passage:

"The fact remains, though, that the data science community can’t thrive in the long term if mistakes are frequently slipping into our analyses via buggy code."

Critically important as open-source projects are navigating contributors using GenAI.
