The #startup world is volatile — I’ve been in and out of it for 20+ years — and it looks to be biting me soon.

By mid-April I’ll be done with my full-time role as Chief Engineer and seeking a full-time role elsewhere.

Not that I own an #Alexa anymore, but throwback to when one of my first #python skills for that ecosystem would answer "Alexa, Is Trump still president?" with sarcastic, humorous, or quite frankly, depressing answers.

Though I didn't open source the full skill, I did so for the answers to pull in.

Oh gosh are there really no drafts or return to finish post features on #bluesky?

Just lost a three post thread cause I looked at a couple other apps and came back to it gone. 😫

So the more I play with #github #copilot and "ai coding assistants" I realize I'd rather them do mundane things like "upgrade this app to latest Expo SDK". But when I try that is most often when I see it choke.

As Congress is on the cusp of passing a resolution to avoid ruining Christmas for thousands of hard-working Americans, Elon threatens to shut it all down. Welcome to oligarchy. You are now under the rule of Elon Musk and his little errand boy, Donald Trump.

That time of year when I wonder about selling my painted #warhammer models.

I always say I regret it.

But they’re not even displayed. Just tucked away.

And I haven’t been able to use them in #warhammerunderworlds in ages. Never got a gaming group back together after pandemic.

Hmm.

I want to write some #python and #reactnative code.

But first I gotta write some #python and #reactnative code.

Time to purge a bunch of #warhammer NIB boxes.

The thought of messing around with eBay to do it sounds terrible.

Going for marketplace and #miniswap on Reddit to see what’s up.
