Hah! Gave google bard my very tech focused log I keep around my work as a backend developer for Firefox and asked it to summarize the key accomplishments.

It didn't bother reading the document and told me that I:

・Increased sales by 20% in the past year. (Sales of Firefox?)

・Launched a new product that has been well-received by customers.

・Improved customer satisfaction ratings by 10%.

・Reduced costs by 5%.

・Increased employee morale by 15%.

Yeah, no pretty sure I didn't do an of that.

    @jrconlin Same - for those of us that can remember when there were only 4 TV channels, what we get from Amazon without Prime is pretty good.

    I haven't shared some #vinyl goodness in awhile, so let's fix that!

    Nothing obscure or indie today... but I treasure this new #Metallica album. From the riffs to James' vocal performances, to the packaging and overall production, #72Seasons just keeps growing on me with each new listen.

    #NowPlaying

    Album cover: A burned, broken baby crib against a yellow background.
    A lyric sheet
    The inner jacket of 72 seasons, featuring the number 72 "cut out", revealing close-up black and white portraits of the band members.

    @killyourfm Sounds like the rock version of "Emily in Paris"...coming soon on Netflix...

    (Enjoy the show!)

    We’re at Makers Central this weekend! So far we’ve spotted @kevsmac and Colin Furze :raspberrypi:

    Kids today with their blue hair and pronouns.
    Kids today with their baggy pants and rap music.
    Kids today with their long hair and heavy metal music.
    Kids today with their long hair and hippie music.
    Kids today with their leather jackets and rock’n’roll music.
    Kids today with their flapper outfits and jazz music.

    Same as it ever was? Same as it ever was.

    @jrconlin The Tour de France is not far off. For a little training, you get three weeks in Europe and no Zoom calls. Worth thinking about.

    @jrconlin Unfortunately you have missed the start of the main Italian tour, but that may not be a bad thing.

    Telling people you are "racing in the Giro" sounds very much like you are "raising a Jira" and I can see how that might be slightly triggering.

    @jrconlin Sounds like a lyric from the Procul Harum track "A Whiter Shade of Pale".

    "You're on mute" is what I would nominate as the "phrase of the decade" for the 2020s (even if yes, we're only 3 years in)

    I think I've probably heard that phrase directed to someone on at least 4 or 5 calls this week - for work, with friends, and for a class - and in at least one case I was the one who was speaking while muted. 🤦‍♂️

    @danyork In years to come that will be how you greet people in person. The polite response is, of course, "can you see my screen?".
