Travel day. EUG > SEA > MKE ✈️

Looking like fall outside the library.

It begins.

We have made apple pie, apple crisp, applesauce, apple muffins, and apple crepes and I am still not tired of apples. Fresh apple season is the best season.

Me: Alexa, what is your primary objective?

(in unison)

Alexa: "Protecting your privacy."
TV: "Protecting your privacy."
Doorbell: "Protecting your privacy."
Glasses: "Protecting your privacy."
Oven: "Protecting your privacy."
Dog: "Protecting your privacy."

What if my diet of Kind bars isn't sufficient. Nutritionally.

I think I could really get into stamp collecting.

Not sure this will scale.

Maybe _I'm_ a legacy stack?

This morning I took my daughter to her first day at a new school and after a few minutes of quiet, "Dad, do you ever get nervous?"

😭

Durgod Taurus + these mellow WIAN keycaps are my new jam.

Corvallis is exactly 'I have to stop my car on campus to let wild turkeys cross' urban.

What I always say before a big backup.

Never talk to me or my son again.

hello bash script my old friend
I'm doing tasks with you again
because a problem seems fleeting
with sed and awk and grep meeting
but my regex fans those problems into flames
the tasks remain
within my shell defiance

I checked this out from the library. Am I still going on some sort of troublemaker list?

One of my tech pet peeves is the word 'picklist'. A certain major CRM (rhymes with pale horse) uses this word in place of 'drop-down menu' or 'select list' and I cringe and cringe all day. I wish they would let users pick which label to apply to this feature. From a list? ugh, words!

Chicken content continues.

ok, one more 🐥.
