hey @snell.zone ... I heard you talking about your iPhone, iPad, FinalCut setup on @macbreak.bsky.social and the Upgrade podcast. Have you published about it (or planning to)? Didn't see anything on sixcolors.com... another source to learn more? Thanks!

I’ve been working through Robot Theology by Joshua K. Smith in my Advanced Technical Topics class the last few sessions.

The discussions have been excellent.

It’s really encouraging the students to think critically about #AI and #robots.

Especially as seniors at the end of the semester.

It’ll be another fun class today.

Excited to release the sixth video (and final?) in my Definitions of Worship series. I hope you’ll check it out.

This is a human factors nightmare.

It’s significantly harder to read and find your flight than the old airport displays.

Missed the devotion and the first highlight keynote this morning, but had many outstanding conversations in the lobby this morning.

That’s why coming to physical meetups is so valuable!
