I'm speaking at @codemash.bsky.social again this year, but this time on a very different topic. Let's talk about unionization in the tech industry!
Do you have questions about organized labor in tech that you want answered in a talk like this? Let me know and I'll try to provide answers in January.

For anybody at #ElixirConf, I have a full set of Elixir flashcards to give away. Would love to give them to somebody learning #ElixirLang or somebody with a co-located team that will use them.

Finally organized my notes for my next tattoo. Have a consult in a couple of weeks to get started on my left arm sleeve. Going for a nature arm to complement my mechanical arm sleeve. I'm already very easy to find in crowds, but I'm going to be even more colorful once this is done.

No real surprises in top artists except for DreamPeace. Chill programming music.
The new Seven Spires is everything I’ve been hoping for. They’ve been building to this every album. Incredible musicianship and range. Adrienne Cowan is probably my favorite #metal singer right now.
