Heres a funny pic of me trimming a pot for your viewing pleasure. It was so tall I had to stack two stools and prop my feet on the wheel so I could brace my arms.

Not by me. It was a one off I did on behalf of AWS team. It got no traction and sadly was not worth the investment to update.

Nice to see my almost 5 yr old #AWS for #dotnet (.NET 5 though) course on Pluralsight is still helping people. These comments are from only 3 weeks ago (pluralsight.com/library/courses/fundamentals-building-dot-net-applications-aws/table-of-contents)

Complimentary feedback from a dev watching the Pluralsight “Fundamentals of Building .NET 5 Applications on AWS” course from 2020.

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

The cancellation plays into fears among scientists who worry that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will use his position as health secretary to sow doubts about vaccines.

I didnt take any pics but was so proud to participate in this protest. Almost every car driving though was honking and some also had signs. There was one truck flying Trump flags but in the 2 hours I was there it is the only one I saw though he went through twice.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

A poster for the economic blackout on February 28. It is a big red Jack rabbit on an aqua blue back ground. It says economic blackout in hand done black type. There are two black speech bubbles. One says “don’t buy stuff Friday February 28th. The other says we have power. Below it says No Amazon, Walmart, target, gas food, gas. Below that it says OK small business, use cash.

Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating. This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens. (Even better: Tesla will hate this)

Cars will need fewer screens and more buttons to earn five-star safety rating in Europe
