I make 1s and 0s as a technical product manager and software engineer. I used to (and still do!) write words. Once caught a level 21 Pikachu, it was awesome.

Minneapolis. Consultant. Ex: Blizzard, Penske, AOL

All opinions are mine.

My 3,000+ strong ebook library is now organized and accessible via Kavita+Calibre+FTP+SFTP+HTTPS+KOReader.

Plus another 5,000+ tech manuals and references I've saved over the years.

Internal + external network. Total syncing. EPUB, PDF, CBZ, etc...

This is awesome.

I’ll be a day one adopter of everything Valve just announced. This is just perfect execution of a product solving a problem, and doing so in ways that hit a major market opportunity.

It’s what Microsoft wishes they could do. Literally. All those management layers defeated by Valve.

Steam just destroyed whatever hope Microsoft had for whatever it is they wanted Xbox to become.

Hard to see how this isn’t fatal to Xbox’s “platform.”

Holy crap! Aurora borealis in Sacramento!

Love this.
We drove about a mile to a park large enough to be pretty dark even on the road and several people stopped just to see why people were out and there was so much sharing wonder with strangers. We should all get to do that more.

I am on my way home to Toronto and the aurorae are absolutely phenomenal.

If you are anywhere in the northern half of the continent, get outside and look up! Or better still, put your camera on a 10 second exposure and point it up.

My uncle, who is a farmer in Watonwan county, sent me this image of the lights above his barn.

Best part about tonight was standing outside in the freezing cold and hearing multiple sets of kids around the neighborhood standing outside with their parents, yelling that they could see colors in the sky.

Just … man I needed that … humanity.

This might be the best photo I’ve ever taken.
The universe reached down and lit the air on fire, but nothing burned, only glowed.

Aura in Minneapolis/Minnesota is insane.

If you fast forward the video via scrubbing or playback speed, you can see the magnetic waves move!

So cool!!

@xylaria.vg not sure of the accuracy of this, saw it just now on the fb hellsite. But maybe something?

The Earth had entered time time-warp conduit. All humanity did was ohh and ahh at the colors in the sky.
