Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 11/01/2025When you’ve been fed “alternative facts” that happen to match up with your confirmation bias, you end up believing some really dumb stuff. While I’m no expert on water management, it’s not difficult to understand that the fire is at a scale unmanageable by any human engineered water supply. 010
Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 11/01/2025I’m projecting Lindsey Vonn top 5 in tomorrow’s DH at St. Anton, Aut. LV was 10th in training and within 1.25 seconds of Lara Gut-Behrami (2nd). Federica Brignone had a wicked fast time -1.31 ahead of Gut-Behrami, but that kind of margin is rare in DH races. #skiracing #fisworldcup 110

Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 08/01/2025I have family in Porter Ranch… keeping a close eye on that one. I hope you stay safe and clear of the fire! 120
Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 08/01/2025Don’t forget the Hurst Fire in Sylmar. While not within LA city limits, it’s within a few miles. 010
Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 08/01/202524hrs in: Bluesky vs the Twitter of old (pre Elmo) With family in LA, I’m particularly interested in the developments of the various fires. As far as I’ve observed, no one has been able to do as good of a job as the old Twitter of surfacing timely and critical information. 000

Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 08/01/2025My fiancee and I visited Malibu on Dec 30. It was a gorgeous, calm, beautiful day. We drove through this stretch of the PCH and it was otherwise peaceful and quiet. Little did we know, all of the homes would be gone in a matter of days. 010
Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 08/01/2025If you have friends in the Santa Monica area and can offer refuge…. Send texts with offers and info. Do not expect immediate responses over 30,000 people just for an evacuation order. 010
Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 08/01/2025Good to finally make it. Seems like a solid platform. 100
Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Oh, that’s just cruel. I refuse to EVER treat the users of any application I’m building like that. 110
Joe Minock @joeminock.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Concerned for our family and friends in the hills around LA today… The Santa Ana Winds are no joke and they’re already feeding the explosive growth of a fire in Pacific Palisades. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/01...nytimes.comCalifornia Wildfires Live Updates: Thousands Ordered to Evacuate Pacific PalisadesRapidly spreading flames, fanned by gusts that could reach up to 100 m.p.h., threatened homes along the coastline. 021
