I wanna hear about the best concerts you’ve been to! Some of mine:

• Ozomatli at The Catalyst - played until curfew, spilled out onto the street and jammed for another hour until the cops came
• Flaming Lips at Liberty Hall - second set, played the entirety of Dark Side
• Dar Williams at Liberty - power went out, she sat on the edge of the stage and played three songs by flashlight
• Joni Mitchell, Brandi Carlisle, et al at the Gorge - simply magical

Just finished a slew of medical tests and the results are in. The doctor says from here on out it’s the Mediterranean Diet for me.

Which means some super big changes. For instance, from here on out only wines from Italy and the south of France. And, grappa instead of gin.

Oh, and it’s time to flip that Cocoon switch and trade in the dead cow for dead cow food.

Please keep me in your prayers.

🎙️ It looks like my episode of @djangochat with hosts @wsvincent and @carlton just aired as I'm about to board a plane for my second and last leg to #PyConUS.

It's always a blast to chat with these two. I enjoyed it, and sometimes, they even recorded it.

Feel free to let me know what you think or if you have any follow-up questions. We covered a ton in a short time, and it was recorded just long ago, so it's new to me again.

Just got back from a week backpacking and canyoneering in Utah, and I ... I think the sandstone wore off my fingerprints!? At least, TouchID hasn't worked since I got back. Wild.

Well, it finally happened. I overslept and missed a flight.
So, instead of leaving at 7:45, I’m leaving at 11:55. But I’m still on my way to #pyconus

Spending the evening with my tattoo artist. Almost done. Tired, hangry and cold - but having fun.

Looks like a new hand grinder (for coffee) just dropped and immediately sold out after James Hoffmann's video review of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPbVUR6Y83k

💡 TIL that Vivaldi supports Philips Hue lights while i was adding a new profile.

> Hue lamp will change color based on the active tab’s webpage color. When disabled, your theme’s accent color will be used.

I ❤️ weird browsers.

Any more extroverts married to introverts out there? Things my wife hates worse than death - 1) Going into a store to pay for gas in person 2) Someone sitting beside her at the movies 3) Invitations to anything but particularly from neighbors

How about some Mother’s Day themed tech gender disparity: a .mom TLD registration will cost you roughly 3.5 times more than a .dad

🤔 My six-year-old just told me that commercials are just people lying to you to get your money, and he is not wrong.

We’re staying in the cutest little tiny home in Asheville. Wildly comfortable bed, decent size fridge, great shower, 160 Mbps internet… and for like $80/night. 5m from downtown, but in a nice forested area. Such a great find.

The Howm #emacs package does certain things much like TiddlyWiki does. In a good way. https://baty.net/2024/05/howm-reminds-me-of-tiddlywiki

Eleven years ago today, Wonder Woman and I got married on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and immediately boarded a train to the Appalachian Trail, where we spent the next five months thruhiking it. I love her more today than I ever have. I’m the luckiest man alive.

I have zero pants on and minutes away from my first colonoscopy, AMA.
