Hello everyone! I have updated my #Linktree profile so those of you who have reached out and connected can get to know a little bit more about me, both in and out of the office.

I finally did it.

I watched KPop Demon Hunters.

And now I can’t stop singing the songs!

I hope @ericjgeller.com's right because #Andor was everything he says in this #Emmy preview.

I hope Eric is wrong because Disney has a terrible habit of over-correcting when something hits the mark like Andor has.

The Guardian nails it: Andor was "a bafflingly under-discussed comet that somehow slipped through the contraction of the TV business. It is unlikely we will see something like it – politically radical with Disney budget carte blanche – ever again." www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
Emmys 2025 predictions: who will win and who should win?

I'm sorry but I cannot support this thesis.

Not when I can read the all about Devlin McGregor Pharmaceuticals here: devlinmacgregor.com

That company is a monster.

This horrendous #UELfinal is on the manager. Amorim said back in January that it would get worse before it gets better- setting the bar so low and then somehow finding a way to crawl under it.

A feckless performance.

Can confirm. Cost me less than $20 to get started and setup my own domain on @bsky.app. It will be an annual cost, but worth it for the autonomy.

This is a good primer for self-hosting. There's so much benefit in Infrastructure Autonomy and the actual costs are way way less than people assume.

I wrote a quick guide to getting started with self-hosting.

It doesn't matter what your motivations are, now is a great time to get started taking ownership and responsibility for your data.

Some quck recommendations for those attending #SXSWEdu for the first time. Add your own!
1. Try not to studf your schedule. Yes, there is a lot to see. Yes, there are amazing talks. But some of the best moments are in the hallway over coffee or a talk just outside your expertise.
