My favorite ever suitcase has finally died. It's my possession that elicited the most compliments from strangers. Including one gen-z TSA agent who thought it was referencing "Men In Black". Sweet summer child. HIT ME with your carry-on suitcase recommendations!

I'm absolutely ASTONISHED that Apple has managed to make Siri WORSE on iOS and watchOS 27. The bar was SO LOW and yet they managed to limbo under it. My watch now says, "I'm sorry, but I am unable to set a timer on this device." WTAF?!

I can't wait for 2035 when all the airports and hotel rooms finally have USB-C plugs, just in time for USB-D.

Wife was in the audience for my conference talk yesterday. She was astounded that I'm actually kind of good at it. It helped that she saw a few others before mine to calibrate the bar, but still. 🥰

I can't decide of the coinage of "noul" is dumb or genius. I'm leaning towards the latter...

This is a reference to a joke I remember from my childhood. As a kid, it was very edgy because it required a curse word. –– What do you get when you cross an elephant and a rhinoceros? . . . . . Hell if I know!

Job interview question: "What causes a React component to re-render?" Bless his heart... he was just a recruiter. I imagine many don't get past that hurdle.

Somewhere I still have a CDR backup – of files that I thought were important – that I made on the evening of September 10, 2001. Little did I know how the world would change the following morning.

Just got a cold call from a recruiter. Great, I just announced that I was looking for a job! He wanted to discuss candidates he had for me to hire at my previous company. 🤦‍♂️

[Re-]Listening to this 30yo album from Fiona Apple, and there's a song called "Never is a Promise". I cannot think of a more TypeScript song title.
