Currently letting my toddler blow dry my hair while I’m sipping coffee. Even if I end up looking like a deranged Ace Ventura I think I’m ok with this activity. It’s cheaper than a blow out bar …

are you even married to a man if you don't have to threaten him with bodily harm over things like not putting back permanent markers or scissors where he found them?

I am looking for a full-time job. Being independent in open source for 3.5+ years has been wonderful. I've gotten done most of the high-level goals I wanted to, and miss having people & structure around me. If you know of a role for a staff-level TypeScript+web developer, let me know! 🙂

Things my husband has said “no” to this week that I’m sad about 1. Buying one of those real looking life size dinosaurs from that NJ theme park selling them on FB marketplace for our toddler 2. Cooking and eating the giant chicken of the woods mushroom growing in our backyard 😢

The word “login” comes from throwing a log attached to a rope with knots overboard a ship to see how many knots go by over time (see also, knots as speed). You’d then put that info in the “log book.” You’d “log in” on a regular basis. This wasn’t from 1959, it was likely from 1689! Etymology baby!

Possible hot take: A sign of a healthy engineering culture is one where team members feel comfortable making memes and emojis in the likeness of their Engineering Managers or Directors.

What Servant Leadership looks like to me - doing small quality of life things on behalf of your direct reports so they have more cognitive bandwidth to focus on the real work work. Example: sending them a calendar invite to ensure they won't get accidentally scheduled for an interview on a holiday.

Three accepted calendar invites for a meeting titled "blocker so no interviews can get scheduled on memorial day"
