Love this post from @hummusonrails.com about how to avoid being a meat proxy. codeplusconduct.substack.com/p/becoming-m... Shared it at work and someone added a reacji to our slack.

Avoid vanity metrics (on left, focus on the impact metrics (on right). #ldx3

Metrics on left: pr counts, token maxing, lines of code
Metrics on right: code reviews, learning that changed direction, improvement others leveraged

I recently discovered "turn off notifications for replies" in Slack and I'm loving it! If you chimed in on a thread that went a different direction, just use that option and your notifications will be way cleaner. You are welcome, world. :)

I love how I post all kinds of tech and business articles on HN, but one that stays on the front page the longest is about how to tie your shoes.

Snowed in #Boulder but was followed by a beautiful bluebird day.

Got to go on a bit of a hike this weekend. Here's Long's Peak/Mt Meeker with a bit of snow on them from the Eastern plains.

Great start to Boulder Startup Week #bsw26 Already caught up with a few folks I hadn't seen for years, met 4-5 new folks, and gave a talk about MCP authentication. Now listening to a @microsoft.com solutions architect talk about agent and data security.

Well, this is pretty cool. Not sure how new this is, but Google Calendar now tells me when I can reschedule a meeting, based on schedules of all the attendees.

Was at University of Arizona last month, saw a ton of these on campus. Looks like automated food delivery (more here: medium.com/avride/avrid... ) What a world we live in.

What a cool token of appreciation for a co-worker who hit 5 years at @fusionauth.io!

Nothing I love more than hearing a friend or acquaintance being interviewed on a podcast I listen to!

The galaxy brain meme with the following four expanding brain states:
- Listening to podcasts
- Sharing your favorite episodes
- Being on a podcast
- Sending appropriate guests to podcast hosts

I've been walking my dog first thing in the morning. I stroll around, listen to a podcast, and enjoy the stars and/or sunrise. It's a delightful way to start the day. (Don't worry, previously, she got walks at other times.)

Man I love hackfests. Just re-read an article I wrote in 2022 about hackfests at @fusionauth.io . As the company has grown the logistics have changed, but the spirit is still there. fusionauth.io/blog/hackfes... Here's a picture of our presentations last week (costumes optional).

Day 2 at @leaddev.com NYC! In the spirit of public service, Blair Ewalt did a survey of sponsors. Results: 52% of sponsor booths (24 of 46) mentioned AI or a close derivative such as 'agentic'. Come on by and say hi. We can talk to you about AI, but won't force you to talk about AI. #leaddev

Fun to talk #auth at LeadDev NYC with @bewalt.bsky.social and Andy Pai and all the attendees. Love conferences like this. Already have learned about nuclear plant servicing, SCIM requirements and customer service team success metrics.
