I added my Mastodon link to my profile, but officially - I think I’m winding down this old handle and moving my HTTP status code humor fully to mastodon.social/@pauldl

Maybe if the Bills play at Ford Field twice in a row, Bobby Layne will get confused and follow them back to Buffalo.
Superb Owl here we come, boys!
And then there’s large companies like Twitter, where it’s pretty clear the best teams are built more with trust and skill than documentation and process. And then a rhino with a hemorrhoid buys the place and gores every team lead that tries to protect their staff. Sorry, Twitter.
In small companies, you can get the name of a person that’s responsible for a thing, and talk to them about it.
In large companies, you spend significant time figuring out the path to that person, end when you find them, they rarely know how powerful they are.

Absolutely in love with this result from my old home town in Michigan. Go get 'em, @HillaryScholten!
I buzzed by the Detroit Lions subreddit. It’s complete gibberish.
Which makes sense. The Packers are not a good team this year, but Lions fans aren’t used to beating anybody, good or no. Let alone a division rival.
Great job, Lions.
