How have I never heard of Succession 📺?
How have I never heard of Succession 📺?
Woke up with an idea for ClipDish at 6am that I had to get up and implement.
Ok, my cellular carrier switching problems are sorted out. Went from $80 -> $25 with Visible. They’re owned by Verizon I wonder how they are able to offer this for less 💵?
Each time I listen to the new @aimeemann album I come away with a new favorite song. Home by Now is my current favorite.
Uh oh, I started porting Verzion number ➡️ Visible. Porting completed but now nothing works.
Been listening to the new Aimee Mann album. I’m glad more artists are showing up on Bandcamp. I want a way to support bands & artists I love w/o buying physical media.
Oh and the album is GREAT! 🎵
5 minutes to build ClipDish is too long when you’re just commenting out code to test something.

I’ve read this a few times. The new Apple show made me want to revisit this classic again.
Pulling a muscle in your back while making coffee is not a harbinger of a good day.

Do it.
I’ve been eating 🎃🍬 all week. I feel bad for the kids that are now just going to get Whoppers in their basket.
Spent longer than I hoped setting up some sensors around the 🏠.
My Home Automation setup uses Home Assistant an amazing open source project.
The first project I tackled was getting my attic lights under control. There is no light switch for the attic. It’s lit via a pull string that you can access after you’ve climbed the steps. I added a vibration sensor to the attic door so that when someone opens that attic door the lights in the attic come on.
Our master bedroom has Hue bulbs and we usually just control it via Google Assistant. However, it’s nice to be able to tap a switch especially if someone is sleeping. Two Ikea 5 button remotes are a cheap option.
The biggest challenge was getting the Zigbee network stable in the upstairs. I ended up having to shuffle around smart switches that act as Zigbee routers so that there was sufficient coverage in the attic.

The pip-date project is a handy way to see which python libraries were installed when. 👩💻
Cooked oatmeal goes from simmer simmer simmer to OMG IT’S STICKING TO PAN in seconds.
JusT began reading The Mom Test. Some things are obvious but the information is packaged nicely.📖
I’m making my first batch of hot sauce. The first step is fermenting the peppers. Here’s a before 📷.
Cool shot of a train in Jim Thorpe park. 📸
Telling Siri on my watch to turn on the living lights makes me feel like a kid watching Buck Rogers.
Awkward cropping. I think it’s supposed to say Day of the Dead.
I came across this on my walk today I thought it was cool.
I just stumbled upon a bunch of home videos that I haven’t seen in years. I added them to my Plex library so they are easy to share with family.
Take more home movies of your family. In 10 or 20 years you’ll realize you still didn’t take enough.
The iPhone 13 Pro camera is just so good that I rarely find a need to bring out my SLR. The convenience of my phone often trumps lugging a camera bag and lenses.
I’m using Google takeout for YouTube content. I want to move from one account to another.
Really feels like the UI is deliberately clunky so you don’t actually do the export.
/vent I’d love to walk with my 🐶 down the street without passing a gauntlet of barking dogs. I don’t understand how dog owners can just let their dogs bark endlessly outside without coming out.
Can’t believe they don’t hear them. Every morning I feel 😨 in my neighborhood.
