Listening to my brain dump voice memos from my walk today.

"Like pen pals but with snacks" will definitely be coming to life in the Wiggle Work community

Anyone in know anywhere still doing free PCR testing? They’re not free by default anymore and a friend is in need. Thanks!!

@lacey this doesn’t help at all in the moment, but they just opened up free mail order tests again https://www.covid.gov/tests

@CodenameTim I’m so sorry, these are painful. Just know that the opposite (a god complex? 😆) is right around the corner for a little break before it happens again 😅

Can someone convince me that using chat gpt to write the majority of a blog post is a good idea?

I'm frustrated by seeing surface level blog posts that don't show more than how to install a package and describe it using technical jargon.

@CodenameTim I'm writing a post right now about ChatGPT and I'm not even using it to write any part of it, haha. Powerful for ideas, getting messy thoughts in order, suggesting outlines, finding references. I wouldn't want it to write the post because I love that part, and there would be a lot of time spent on fixing the tone I suspect

Had to get on Twitter to find an old tweet. The experience seems odd and faulty and I'm getting this message within my old posts.

Anyone have insight here? Though I realize nothing of any sense is happening over there.

@skyfaller it's from Sept 2022 😅

There is a firm zero percent chance I will buy a subscription if you prevent me from even seeing your homepage. How am I supposed to know if I even want it?

@Chris It's wild how few companies have realized that old marketing tricks don't work post-pandemic. People don't care anymore and it's fine to just go without or find elsewhere. Like false scarcity, haha. "ONLY 10 SPOTS LEFT!!" "HURRY, in 55 CARTS NOW"

Early Wiggle Work invites are OUT NOW and there's room for a few more–let me know! 💌

Join the soft launch of the Discord community for remote tech (and adjacent) workers–a warm, welcoming, and worthwhile space for those of us working in isolation.

Can't wait to hang out 〰

Gotta say it but ur a shit designer if you can’t see the benefit of developers being more design aware.

Same for developers who can’t see the benefit of designers being able to sling code.

We’re low-key hiring designers and possibly a front-end dev rn and guess what: being able to work “over the fence” is a requirement https://toot.cafe/@seaotta/111047632253934257

joni,

@andy designers are the biggest gatekeepers out there. Even as a designer I’ve always felt more comfortable in dev communities because of this

Home after a second spine surgery in two months. Same micro discectomy, same spot 😬

So grateful to be able to head home right after this time. Arrived back to these perfect beauties 😭

I'm launching Wiggle Work this month, a community for remote tech (and adjacent) workers–WIP purpose/mission within the attached TOOT.

Would anyone be interested in joining early? I'm looking to get some feedback on the overall process and feel so far to iron out any wrinkles for the official launch.

It will also be fun not to be in a Discord community alone in the meantime 🥺 I'd aim to email these invites out early next week.

joni,

Wiggle Work in an online community for remote tech (and adjacent) workers to feel less isolated by connecting in a genuine, less business-bear space. Be a part of a community where you can chat about hobbies, join a book club, and share your weekend plans without the pressure to be “on” all the time.

We’re here to bring back the invaluable watercooler moments lost when working remotely–the freedom to talk to someone without a reason and about nothing of particular work-related importance.

joni,
@joni@mastodon.yupgup.com avatar

@webology 🙏 🙏 I'll email you next week!

@greg Awesome! What email would you like the invite sent to next week?

@greg got it! looking forward to it :)

We planted all this milkweed, and how many monarch butterflies to we get in an average year? ZERO.

How many "large milkweed bugs" do we get? ALL OF THEM.

@Chris you could also order some from Monarch Watch next year just to get started. I tried letting them naturally do their thing on milkweed in the backyard last year and there was a 0% survival rate 🙀 So I went back you raising them in enclosures

7 more eggs today after a quick look. Going to send Ben out with his high quality child eyes to find more.

8 days of growth from egg, newly hatched, and today’s progress.

I just can’t get enough of this.

Released a very large female today and this one will definitely be out tomorrow

Fourth female in a row. All especially strong flyers and no OE. Will definitely continue to bleach leaves each year 🧼

@greg INCREDIBLE! I have never spotted one of these
