It’s Stained Glass of Sintra. Also, “Spot the Intro” had so much potential, and they blew it on the “app.”

Planning and executing a “super bowl” for some football game that’s on tomorrow is hard work.

4 months into my tenure at DigitalOcean, and I've already fooled them into thinking I'm a keynoter! (There's a virtual option if you want to watch from home.) Really looking forward to sharing the future of DO with you.

My percussion-obsessed son has joined Matrix Performing Arts, an indoor drum corps. He will be performing with their Open Ensemble on bass drum. They have a unique “calendar” fundraiser to help with the costs of instruments & travel. Please consider donating to this great group!

On June 14th, I applied for a role at @yahoo.bsky.social. “Head of Games” seemed like something I’d enjoy AND be good at.

176 days later, they just thanked me for applying, but they’ll be going in a different direction.

So glad to be finishing my 4th month at @digitalocean.com!

Literally everyone on this subway is listening to their own individual device at full volume. Is this the future?
