Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 05/12/2025We finally got some snow in Colorado so decided to take my first powder day. 5150
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 27/10/2025Last week, I released a huge update for Spot Squid that lets shops pre-book time slots for events. They completely sold out the event in a few hours! Was awesome having a chance to stop by the event and see everything humming along in person. "It was incredible. So smooth. Everyone loved it..." 😤 5211
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 03/09/2025So glad my trip to Amsterdam was so much easier than last time. Ready to kick things off at #RailsWorld 0110
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 31/07/2025Merged a few hotfixes before review this morning and was trying to make a Cowboy Coding joke when sending an update. I attempted to put my face on Cowboy Curtis but ended up with this abomination and I can't stop laughing at it. 060
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 03/07/2025Yes! There's even a spot at the top where you can strike the Rocky pose with the skyline in the background. 120
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 03/06/2025With #RailsConf about a month away, I've been doing some reminiscing about my Philly days. Spent my 30th birthday at National Mechanics for the Weblinc holiday party and the Careless Whisper sax guy played Happy Birthday for me 😆 040
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 14/05/2025Flying out for Rails World a couple of days early to spend some time in Europe. 240
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 06/03/2025A Ruby tattoo has been on my list for a long time. I thew out this idea to my tattoo artist a few months ago and after floating out a couple of ideas for my appointment, this was the one he wanted to do the most. So stoked with how it turned out! 040
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 15/01/2025Standing on the top of my rickety half pipe built from lumber scraps I could pilfer doing construction work in the summer. Bleached blonde hair thanks to 311's Nick Hexum along with the ever-stylish jean shorts. Taken sometime around 1997. 340
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 14/01/2025It’s my geodesic dome shed the previous owners built. For scale, the door is about 6ft and has power. Love this thing. 330
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 14/01/2025No power at the house today while getting some electrical work done. Tethering to my phone and working from my laptop. Still beats a coworking space 6551
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 03/01/2025Not quite a flamethrower but I too am sick of throwing out de-icer and shoveling 040
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 18/12/2024Got to spend the last birthday of my 30's hanging out in a tattoo shop. 2130
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 10/12/2024@jpcamara.com Saw this New Noise cover and had to send it your way store.newnoisemagazine.com/collections/... 🤘 120
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 03/12/2024Also try to do a duck around Christmas time. Last year I accidentally bought a goose (long story) and did a traditional roasted goose. 100
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 03/12/2024I realize what a bad idea this was but was the only level spot without ice I could find. Still, once of the best ones I've done and didn't blow myself up or die from fumes in the shed. Here's to more bad decisions next Thanksgiving. 380
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 26/11/2024Crispy skin and juicy meat. I’ll never go back at this point. Plus, you don’t have the oven tied up all day and is only in the fryer for about 45 mins. 120
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 26/11/2024Got my upgraded Turkey Fryer setup in time for Thanksgiving. Last year, I was having a ton of issues with the regulator and had to tape down the safety valve 😂 180
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 19/11/2024Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice in Chains m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71n... 7121
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 13/11/2024I do the same and also have a travel kettle! The only downside is it seems like TSA always searches my bags when the whole kit is in my checked luggage. 120
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 12/11/2024Now that I think about it, I guess the empty spots are nil ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There's a traditional design called the Prisoner of Love and was going to swap the heart for a Ruby gem 0100
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 07/11/2024Feeling a big Ben Wyatt clay-mation phase coming up for the next couple of months. 040
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 04/11/2024This was the first project I built just for fun after a rough bout of burnout. Even had stickers and pins I’d bring to conferences and leave out on the tables. 070
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 04/11/2024I know I might be in the minority, but I love these snowy days and getting dark early, at least for the first few months. 3120
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 31/10/2024I will never be able to hear Careless Whisper and not think about Sergio the Sexy Sax man. He was also at a company holiday party that happened to fall on my 30th birthday so got a special Happy Birthday rendition in between the Careless Whisper takes. 140
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 31/10/2024Happy Halloween! Took my first meeting of the day with my vampire teeth in. 2101
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 30/10/2024Packing in some final pre Halloween movie time tonight. Dead Alive (Braindead for my overseas friends) was the first movie we watched in the new house and an all time favorite. Hard to believe someone watched this and decided Peter Jackson should direct The Lord of the Rings 😂 100
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 30/10/2024About a week ago, I had an appoint at a tattoo shop that's been using Spot Squid for about a month. I was so hyped on the feedback (and the new tattoos), I could barely sleep. Instead of sleeping, I decided to design the first ever Spot Squid shirt and so pumped with how it came out 🤘 2122
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 28/10/2024A couple of months ago, I reorganized my office to make my video background less cluttered. Just realized everything I moved ended up in this little nerd and hobby section. This is a fun little cross-section of my hobbies and non-dev stuff. Drop some questions if you're curious about anything! 6160
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 25/10/2024It's Halloween weekend which means it's finally time to break out the ol' physical copy of The Garbage Pail Kids movie 😂 572
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 23/10/2024The included case and portability are what pushed me to try it. It's so easy to bring everywhere I use it as much as I can whenever I'm away from my desk. This is the layout I've been using configure.zsa.io/voyager/layo... 010
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 23/10/2024I've had it a few months now. My Ergodox EZ is still my daily driver but have been using the voyager with my ipad and laptop and love it. It's so thin but feels really well made. 020
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 23/10/2024The voyager split keyboard has been my favorite iPad accessory and makes for a killer note taking setup that’s super portable. I have 0 shame and realize how ridiculous this looks 😆 170
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 23/10/2024Haven’t been fishing much lately but so lucky to live in Colorado and have access to so many spots. One of my favorites runs through a popular outlet mall most anglers refer to the ‘troutlet mall’. 061
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 23/10/2024Seeing a lot of new faces on here so wanted to post more about what I've been working on the past year. For my Rails Conf talk on Action Mailbox, I closed with a quick video of me starting my 06 Tacoma with an inbound email. This was a complete secret and so fun to see people react in person. 2112
Cody Norman @codynorman.com · 22/10/2024A couple days after recording with @drbragg.bsky.social , I booked some time at a shop doing a trial. Got to spend 3 hours in the shop getting feedback and the they're so happy, didn't even charge me for my session. Honestly, free tattoos would by far make this my most successful SaaS 😂 290
