In the same way that you can tell a 20th century movie by their establishing shot of Manhattan including the twin towers, now we can do the same for establishing shots of the White House.

I am looking for a full-time job.
Being independent in open source for 3.5+ years has been wonderful. I've gotten done most of the high-level goals I wanted to, and miss having people & structure around me.
If you know of a role for a staff-level TypeScript+web developer, let me know! 🙂

Sci-fi nerds! I’m trying to introduce my 12yo son to Firefly. I remember liking it back in its day, and remember that Sci-fi nerds lament its short life.
Gonna be honest: pilot is sort of a slog. Encourage me to continue?

I feel like my in-ear AirPod Apple Fitness California pixie dream girl trainer is really into me.
She's pretty excited about all my walking workouts.
I'm breaking personal bests left and right.

😂 Just got a DAI podcast ad for the Spanish tax authority, convincing me that “sharing means caring”.
I thought tax wasn’t optional.

TIL: October 11, 1975 was the first episode of SNL and also the wedding of @billclinton.bsky.social and @hillaryclinton.bsky.social.
George Carlin only performed at one of them, though.

Went to look up the new <Activity /> component for React 19.2 and Google helpfully guessed I was trying to figure out how to react to an active shooter. 😭

I was just chopping cauliflower whilst listening to a podcast with AirPods.
At one point I doffed a ‘Pod and set it on the counter. When I went to put it back in, I almost grabbed the wrong white bulb with a stalk!
