Wifey just asked me, now the match is over, what I'm going to do today. I said "I have no idea!" What a day! From Leah & Kim thru Mariona & Laia, Kelly getting her smile back. Lotte's late rearguard for home club. Unfairly maligned Stina. The stories go crazy!

Intense first half. I nearly lost my voice on the disallowed goal 😅. #COYG!! #UWCLfinal #Arsenal

I could write an epic poem explaining why Las Vegas makes me feel as if my brain has been infected with megrim demons, or I could just post this photo.

Yeah that sign says "Strip Gun Club" and the LEDs switch to bold text saying "Shoot a machine gun!"

If you happen to be in Western #Colorado on Thurs, stop by my #SpokenWord performance—a stage full of #poetry & #music. I'll be doing my First Nations Salutation & a suite of my Colorado Water pieces. I always revel in taking a few days exclusively for my artist self.

Quick tip if you use LLMs to generate/edit Python code (probably other languages). LLMs like to generate whitespace-only lines. Asked about that today, I said that in almost any editor you can regex search & replace. Search: `^ +$\n` & replace: `\n`. Screenshot shows an example in VS Code.

When I get new #scam/#phishing attempts I study for a bit to spot the exact gaffe—gotta warn fam what's up in Griftville. Sometimes takes some squinting as the scams evolve. Tried the new #Gemini assistant to accelerate; worked pretty well for this case (legit links; phone number as the only funnel)

"Russian Roulette Opening" is a poem of mine, published 4 years ago in Sylvia Magazine. An extended metaphor on a once again timely topic. You should have little trouble figuring it out 😉

Proud Dad & Coach moment.
My HS freshman girl. She was worried about trying out for the soccer team.
Her club team of 8th & 9th graders played her HS team's indoor squad indoor today, a few seniors & all.
She scored 5 on 'em (10-6 loss, ultimately)
Confidence badge unlocked!⚽️💪🏿

Prepping for the Denver AI holiday party, I pictured maybe the usual 40-50 folks. No prob with my 3 PA speakers. Then numbers quickly shot into the 90s. Uh oh! Proper PA subwoofer required (bodies kill bass)! Bit the bullet & ordered one (my seat in the pic), just to ensure the literal vibes.

#JSONSchema is very handy & popular for controlling LLM outputs, including in my own project, Toolio. It's terrible to read, though & token greedy=inefficient in #LLM workloads. Think it would be cool to have an e.g. #YAML format to do the same.

I'll be representing the #Colorado Poets Center, reciting poetry between story-telling shorts at the fundraiser for the Casa de Paz Immigrant Rights organization in Denver next week (May 9th at 6pm). Come support a good cause.

Up next on the poet (and DJ) front: I'll be a third of the Dark Night Solstice Show crew—a couple of nights (Dec 15 & 16) concocting chaos in Paonia, #Colorado.
