Forgot to link last week to @coreint because I was traveling. On episode 525, @danielpunkass and I talked more about Blinksale, Stripe, and subscription services. (We’re taking this week off from the podcast.)

UK approves Moderna variant booster. Hope we get this in the US in the fall. Many people will have gone a year since their last shot, so seems like good timing. Hardly anyone wears masks anymore. 😷

Changed my profile photo to a shot from Disneyland last week. Cropped funny but I like it anyway. Will show up a little delayed in various Micro.blog clients… Need to improve that.

2022-08-18 Seems like I’ve been in and out for 2 weeks, both vacation and unexpected travel. Even though I can always check in with work from anywhere, it’s not the same as having an uninterrupted day. Back at my desk this morning, iced coffee in hand, ready to catch up. ☕️

Adding the Artemis launch window to my calendar. August 29th. We just finished watching all 3 seasons of For All Mankind back to back. Past time to return to the moon! 🚀

Annoyed that Tumblr appears to have changed their posts export format, breaking compatibility with Micro.blog’s import. Now I need to rewrite it. Formats should be stable, and all blog systems should support my Blog archive format.

Rolled out a change in Micro.blog on the web to manage your own posts with a more compact view. Details and screenshot over on the news blog.

Lunch at Fort Brewery in Fort Worth. 🍺
2022-08-21 Really strong first episode of House of the Dragon. When it was over, I was thinking “this is how good Wheel of Time should have been”… Still feel like that first season was written by committee and fell flat, for me. 🐉

Did not finish: The Ruins by Scott Smith. Listened to the first part of this on audiobook with @traci, but it’s not really my kind of book. Don’t particularly care about these characters or how it ends. 📚
