How many mid-life crises is a person supposed to have?

I often have this strange feeling of thought that everything in our world is some configuration of things found on Earth. Clothing, buildings, electronics, art, weapons, meals, beverages, vehicles, games. Just a bunch of stuff taken from around Earth and made it into a new thing.

I wrapped up the fall semester of my web class with a scavenger hunt. #EdTech #WebDev

Spam phone calls are best enjoyed by listening to the pitch, then enthusiastically pitching your developer/design services tailored to the spammer’s pitch. Ex. call: duct-cleaning services. Ex. response: single-page app that allows customers to book duct-cleaning appointments.

I found a pretty old website. This takes me back: http://www.indo.com/birding/bsites.html

Related, can anyone recommend good Bali birding websites or walks for June?

Spotify users or employees, how do I stop this from ever happening ever again in my entire life?

Any crossword nerds on here? Today’s NYT is tricky.

What are folks using for their VPNs these days? I’ve been using Nord but think I’ll try Proton.

Any post-sec instructors on here facing new challenges with the crop of students who’ve just come from high school?

Can we stop using the phrase “This Must Be The Place” everywhere?

Just nailed a non-traditional handshake. I didn’t look at the hands or anything.

Any neurosurgeons here or am I the only one who’s not?

I just realized that I’ve been mixing up Bernadette Peters and Carol Kane for years.

I haven’t worked in Rails for several years. Took a spin through the v8 (!) docs. I had forgotten how fun it was to work with. Now I’m thinking of what I should build with it.

Back on campus to teach students web dev they probably already learned in primary school.

Any folks on here dual-booting Linux and Windows? I’m thinking of exiting the Apple ecosystem and am looking at a Lenovo ThinkPad. Web dev, instructional design, daily driver. What are you all running?

You’re not going to believe this but I’ve encountered a programmer who pronounces Git with a soft g. What say you, Jif people?

It bothers me more than it should that ChatGPT's title element is empty.

Why is Boston Public nowhere to be found on any streaming service?

Instagram seems to stagger notifications, presumably to manipulate engagement frequency. As I snored beside my wife at 3:20am, she got a notification that I liked her message. It was one I liked six hours earlier, alongside another two reactions she already got notifications for.

Apple, “long way” to “long day” is not an autocorrect, it’s an arbitrary auto change. Give us a ducking break already.

It’s a bit of a trip, to think that your generation will one day be extinct. One day, the last Gen X’er will call out, “Yo!” and no one will be there to answer back. The last of their kind. Then, gone.

I am horrified that Google Docs marked “LEGO” as incorrect, suggesting “LEGOs” instead

Remember to fuck up all your clocks tonight for the next eight months.

In the last few months, I’ve baked focaccia in BC, Alberta and Ontario. It’s been an interesting journey with dough rise and baking times.

Remember when working in Flash, your files would sometimes stop working, and the only solution would ultimately be to paste your existing ActionScript into a new file? That was possibly its most annoying feature.

I was hoping to share good news about a job application that I was excited about. Without naming the company, I unfortunately heard today that the answer is FuckFuckNo.
