That’s the schtick. It makes the news reels and gets her name out there for 15s and it normalizes crazier behavior for others.

You can have community tornado shelters.

Maybe when mtv quit having news and just the real world

What caldav clients supports that?

I’d recommend the Tailscale style approach. MTLS is a pain imo without infrastructure and especially on the app layers

ADHD and easier to type a url than open a new tab. People that can maintain a curated tab list… I wish my brain would allow it.

Once a day I close browsers to make sure there’s not some work item I forgot to hit post on.

There was once a house in a Nantucket, they tried to save sand by the bucket, the ocean and sea, would not let it be, so they tried sell and say muck it

It counts! I remember finally deciding to invest in headphones that I could easily replace the cables first.

Bluetooth for music is great. Bluetooth turning into “why does my headset change to cruddy codecs 20-30m into a meeting” … no so much!

What’s a technology or process change that you’ve really appreciated making everyone’s life easier?

My #1 recommendation is reading https://staffeng.com/book. There’s so much variance between orgs at this level (or worse, implied during a reorg).

One of the things that book helped me with is understanding the lens others view this level as four separate personas. That unlocked for me that you might be getting advice from people expecting something other than you’re going after.

Another lens is the product engineering v corp/cloud security world. They can act very differently and you often find these roles straddling 2-3 unique orgs.

1. Services / customer experience of what your org delivers
2. Threat modeling mindset: look for the big picture so you can help make sure you can help put emergencies and day to day stuff in context.
3. Get real feedback from others to put that judgement in perspective. Sometimes they are missing your perspective and other times you are off base!

Just remember there’s a lot of variance in higher level processes. Read the book above, then read 20 job descriptions for these titles. See if you can understand what they really want from the role.

Just listened to it again. Highly recommend. The short of it is more searches == more ads == more $. There’s a conflict between a great search experience (landing not on google) versus the time you spend ON Google.

Great story and just terrible outcome.

I think it’s amazing how grounded Dave stayed. It also really helped that you could sell records and make $ then.

They completely messed up their iOS apps. I’ve had this for tabs for eons and bought a lifetime license. I think for no ads.

Now, you keep getting more aggressive subscription pushes.

The closest I ever got to this story was working help desk in 1996. A user called up saying they had deleted the Internet.

Took me a while to understand he dragged “the Internet” to the recycle bin on the desktop.

Bring that to your department chair and ask if they can help sponsor the trip. It’s a big deal and something the department would be proud of.

It’s definitely there because of the same politics.

This was one of my favorite… cassette tapes. The entire album is great.

Getting the right keyboard height was almost impossible. That keyboard tray was about 6 months of knee bumps away from death!

Motorized desks really improved things for me.

IReal pro for chord charts and backing practice.

Chord AI is good for “what’s the chords in this YouTube video”

https://www.sheetmusicscanner.com is useful for I have sheet music I want to put into guitar pro on the desktop.

Scan; export as musicml; import on desktop. Cleanup.

If really interested, the local NPR station did a long origin story of the Alabama Prison System.

There was one prison until slavery ended.

Glad you got diagnosed. There’s a ton of bad management in startups. Especially stay away from managers that grew up in toxic shops.

I’ve always been a strong employee. People get good at pushing buttons. Spent more time in a divorce therapy talking about a manager than the personal issues.

Realized for every boundary problem I had, there were n alienated people on my team that really got hurt hard. Sr. Management fixed the issue

Be good at taking breaks. Be good at looking for new roles before you need them.

Often; the money side that seems big to employees is new house rich. If you aren’t happy, it’s not worth it.
