Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 08/10/2026But I use it so rarely that I don't think anyone understands the joke. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 08/10/2026My default topic change is "Hey, look, they have lights in this place!" 100
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I'm just glad that I pilot my life in such a manner that no one would would feel safe putting me in a group chat about raping women. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Aww, look, she's embarrassed to have her picture on this story! 010
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 29/09/2026And this was in one of those rich, ultra-low-crime areas. There was no reason for me to suspect anything bad would happen, and it didn't make a difference. 001
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Let's be clear, I already believed that women have to view all men as potentially dangerous, but I never felt it myself until the first time I took my niece shopping; you'd better believe that I was hyper aware of each and every man in that mall. 100
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 24/09/2026When I saw the word 'sequel', I darted in excitement to buy it, only to find disappointment that parts 2 & 3 aren't released yet. I already have the prequel. 010
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I always carry my passport so that if I ever meet you, you'd instead have to say it's because of NDAs. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 10/09/2026I like to tell coworkers that every other employee in the history of the company wanted it to fail, so we're lucky that you're the first who actually wants to succeed. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Now that it's bedtime, I'm regretting that long nap earlier this afternoon. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Wait, first, can it connect at 5gbps BEFORE you drive over it? 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Is it going to be coiled or uncoiled while you drive over it? 100
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Asking Google was much more helpful than screaming that sentence as loudly as I could, but screaming was better at dissipating my anger. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Today I Googled "Word online - Fucking stop typing and suggesting shit please for the love of Valhalla!", and whatever AI Google uses for their search results did give useful instructions for how to turn off predictive typing and text suggestions. 100
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Thanks for the inspiration, I'm going to copy some of them! 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 12/07/2026There's always room in your life for an additional dog. Grief never goes away, but over time its corners get less sharp. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 17/06/2026It helps me if I treat each visit as a way to study how different locations and employees execute what ought to be the same process. 030
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Sometimes I wish I could read the history books from 200 years in the future. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 13/06/20264 layer corrugated board! That sure makes a nice box! 010
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Sometimes I think Phil should be in charge of the block lists for the entire Internet. Or maybe that could be a service to which I subscribe my colleagues. 120
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Every software developer I've ever worked with is probably laughing at me right now, and I deserve it. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 08/06/2026When I asked it which caps it considered, its response was that it needed to get the list of capacitors from the layout. 100
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 08/06/2026I know very little about programming. My favorite thing to say to a software developer (without actually looking at their code) is that they forgot a semicolon. I tried an AI tool for layout review, and it did the same to me (except it said I was missing bypass caps). 100
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Clearly you need a promotion so you can hire 1+ of each for your team. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 26/05/2026I can always tell when the batteries in my Samsung TV remote are getting low because I have to actually point it at the TV. With fresh batteries, just being in the same room is enough. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 24/05/2026I think this means that emergency gets translated to not-betta-going. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 28/04/2026There'll always be someone to lower the bar so AI can step over it. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 28/04/2026I'm not claiming AI is better, just that maybe it's not as worse-than-a-human as I sometimes think it is. 100
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 28/04/2026Say what you like about AI, but I just told a human to fix 3 items in a report; 30 minutes later he said all feedback has been incorporated, but when I looked, none of the 3 were changed at all. 100
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 08/04/2026You can't multiply a clock, only divide (count) it. This turns out to be a more controversial fact than I'd imagined. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 04/04/2026Didn't we get big mad when Russia did this in Ukraine? 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 27/03/2026You can do many things, but you don't have to do them all at once, nor continue doing them only because you started them. 010
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 25/03/2026No spoilers, but NCIS episodes like that make me miss my Dad. I guarantee I'd have a text or call from him by now after an episode like that. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 21/03/2026This should be reported in foot-minutes. I'm only 30 feet away when I'm outside, and I'd like credit for reading a book outside. 271
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Today I got a new bookcase, and I also got the new book from @kbspangler.com & @alepresser.com to go with it! I've only read it cover-to-cover once this evening. 010
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 16/03/2026At first I thought this video was going to test how carpet impacts the connection. 001
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 26/02/2026Once is a coincidence, twice is a conspiracy and needs to be investigated. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 21/02/2026I'd be happy with over 0.5; think of how much I'd learn! 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 16/02/2026If you ever see a man harassing a woman in public, feel free to say to him "You sure smell nice." Be ready to follow that up with a compliment about how nice his eyes look. 000

Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 03/02/2026You know that feeling when you see "Now printing 1 of 1300" from Excel? It's not a great feeling. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 24/01/2026I want to start counting from 1, while the software developers always start counting from zero. Add in the first round of pin/part swapping and a reannotation and then there's no going back. 000
Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 14/01/2026Uber could have prevented you from getting stressed out. Someone should tell your parents! 000

Scott @scottypippen08.bsky.social · 03/01/2026What about cross-country skiing? Can't that be flat and even uphill? I think snowboarding is for sport only, but skiing can have practical applications. 000
