Fuck you @nytimes — you spoiled the World Cup final by putting the result in the subject of an email. What the actual hell were you thinking?

I’m aghast. I can’t believe you did that to me. I woke up looking forward to watching that game, which I had obviously recorded, since it was the middle of the night. Incredibly poor form. @nytimes

As we witness this free-fall just remember: he thought everything that is happening now would be _better for him_ than whatever would have come out in discovery if the lawsuit moved forward.

This new @timeryapp update is amazing! Love the use of live activities, way better than relying on a widget.

Just arrived at PyCon. Time to wake up Twitter again I guess. Who made it?

The 2 hour runtime was intimidating, but I was riveted. A fascinating look at the world of crypto and NFTs, and a glimpse of the horrifying hellscape future that crypto bros want to bring to pass. Highly recommended. youtu.be/YQ_xWvX1n9g @FoldableHuman

Elastic APM seamlessly surfaces the logs and metrics tied to application traces to speed up root cause analysis. Join @kjaymiller and Principal Software Engineer @basepi tomorrow as we take a look at how we can leverage Elastic APM in the Python space → go.es.io/3me6flg

If you're a cold-call recruiter, the fastest way to my shitlist is to send me an SMS instead of an email. Fuck off.

harpers.org/a-letter-on-just… Remember that the world is rarely black and white, and distilling complex issues down to hashtags removes all context and makes open discussion very difficult.

I’m fully aware of the irony in the fact that I’m posting this on Twitter, a platform which is on the forefront of removing context and encouraging flame wars, tribalism, and lack of empathy. Hit me up if you’d like to discuss anything in the news recently: [email protected]

@basecamp issues with Hey.com ? The iOS app is fetching mail, but won’t send mail or process screening decisions. Haven’t tried desktop yet.

Never mind, seems to be resolving. Is there a status page?

I'm still not sure why I had to completely reset my account to recover app access, since I still had my GPG key, but whatever.

Today I started my new adventure with @elastic! I'll be working on their APM (application performance monitoring) team! Working on @HubbleStack at Adobe has been an amazing experience. Hope to see you around!

It’s been fun, #PyCon2019! See you in Pittsburgh!
My 19-year ride at American Greetings has come to a close. If you’d like to employ a 2-decade Python veteran, O’Reilly author, conference speaker/tutorial presenter, REST and security nerd, manager, mentor, and catalyst/culture hacker in CLE or remote, drop me a line!
