The internet is just one of your friends posting "I need a hug" and then everyone else commenting "Same".

but for real, if you're doing some oddball "everyone says this is impossible & probably not a good idea" kinda ish... i'm your guy.
if you want a reliable performer, who shows up at 8am every day to crush todo lists, i'm not actually your guy. i make magic happen, not mundanity.

Hrm I'm struggling with the whole "talking myself out of starting a business" thing that I do so well.
I have an idea for a thing, looked up competitors, found a handful of apps that are similar, which have failed to gain traction.
Why would I think mine would be any different?

Ok, so, I would like to try starting a company as my next career step. Got an idea and funding? Do you need a CTO? Maybe you're a VC that wants to connect me?

welp, I was laid off today.
if anyone wants to work with me, reach out! mgmt/eng/community/docs/cofounder, whatever. i'm open minded.
also, if you just want to catch up and have an exploratory convo, i've got lots of free time now, so...
(this is my "here we go again" face)

fleetwood mac's dreams is such an interesting song from a production perspective. it is ostensibly simple, but there's a some subtle tricks in there, especially around the drum production and the bass. also a weird mid-song tempo slowdown for a few bars that recovers right after.

Random non-ironic pro-tip for ya'll: I often find myself wanting a little scratchpad to type/copy/paste something into, but don't want a full text editor:
data:text/html, <html contenteditable>
will make your browser tab into something you can type into. now make it a bookmark.

of course, this has *no useful features at all*. your text will not be saved anywhere. if you close the tab, restart the browser, etc... your text will be gone. I use this to do things like paste some bit of text in, edit it, then copy it again to go paste it somewhere else.

i keep thinking i'm going to be a phoenix rising from the ashes but now i'm feeling like the burnt out coals of some grocery store generic brand charcoal in the bottom of a weber grill, just some damp month-old ashes that need to be scraped out so the new fuel can breathe.

Company GDPR training used an example based in Lisbon... TRIGGERING.
I need vacation time, and I need it to be in Lisbon. I need fish and beer and winding streets and music and great coffee and pastries and miradouros and friendly people saying obrigado every 5 seconds.

The pandemic is "over" except that the hospitalization rate in my area (Multnomah County) is still just as high as the worst rates of 2020.
COVID-19 is still an active and present threat. People are still getting sick, getting hospitalized, and dying from it.

great time to be in the oat milk industry.
(well, stock performance of $OTLY is pretty dismal, but like, people are really buying a lot of oat milk (14% growth/year), so they need to figure out how to fix that)
