I love everything... ok mostly everything web. Golf enthusiast, father and husband.

Dear America,

Every import from China is now +145%

It may seem like nothing has changed, and things are fine. But in 2 weeks, when that first boat arrives, the proverbial shit is going to hit the fan.

Good luck.

I felt like a prompt engineer today. I don't know how I feel about this.

Hey America,

Instead of asking for thanks, perhaps you should do what you promised.

I had to post this out because it's absolutely insane.

If you're not on X like me but want to see what DOGE is doing because they're sooooo transparent. You have to navigate around what looks like a marketing page for crypto coin.

Still can't see where the "receipts" are. What a clown show.

Dear American friends.

I thought the idea was to bring down the price of goods "very fast." What are we doing?

We love ya and built systems and businesses based on trust, friendship, and common goals.

This will undoubtedly erode that for generations.

Let's talk,
Canada

The Sunday NFL late game should always start at 6:30pm EST.

Yeah, I live on the East Coast, and yeah, I understand timezones. The statement stands.

How many 5 year olds could you take on at once?

I still haven't gotten back to my wife on this.

My guess is 30.

Heading off to play simulation golf in pajamas is underrated.

I think it's time for Canada to diversify our trade.

Being held hostage isn't fun.

Oh.. Visual Studio wants to update. Sure no prob.

It showed an "update" icon so I thought sure it's going to close and update on it's own. *waiting.....WAITING*

I guess I'll just close it and now it updates!?!

Just another fun VS adventure!

The more I read about open network (AT protocol) the more I love Bluesky and the potential for connectivity.

Well done!
