I have barely used Twitter/X/whatever over the last year and my life is much better for it.
I’ll keep my account until it’s taken away but if you’re looking for me, look elsewhere!
Just kicked off a couple days away from work. I'm eating chips with chopsticks so I can play Diablo 4 without getting my keyboard/mouse greasy and salty.
So I think things are going pretty good so far.

This weekend I wanted to have my kids experience programming that was:
1) Real, not Scratch or some non-prod thing
2) Accessible, feel like "I can do this"
3) Short form, build a "program" in a single setting
We made a dice rolling app in about 1hr...
When we started, my oldest was really uninterested. He said programming was "boring" and wanted to do something else. At the end, he was excited to show mom what he had made and experiment with styling it to look cool.
I really love outcome-focused teaching!

A question has an answer. A Request has formal meaning in many orgs (like an ADO item type).
An “ask” usually has some deliverable or artifact as a response. It has an action cost. So it does have a useful meaning despite its corporate buzzword status.
And here I am managing the core game engine for one of the largest games in the world from Wyoming 🤦♂️
The real ceiling is taking advice from middle aged white cryptobros.

My wife called and asked me to get the chicken thighs out of the freezer. I told her we don’t have any chicken thighs in the freezer so she said she’d check when she gets home- your thoughts and prayers are appreciated
