One of these days I'd love to have the money, time, and space to build my own full size R2-D2 astromech. One of these astromechs can only be movie-realistic if it makes the proper *thunk* when it falls over, though. #youknowimright #StarWars #maythe4thbewithyou

The obvious theme of this year's Super Bowl commercials: AI. What's also becoming painfully obvious is that using AI in a way that actually adds value is tricky, but it can be done. Not everyone has that magic formula.

That's essentially where AI is right now. You must treat everything it generates with a healthy dose of scepticism. The lack of critical thinking skills produces an untrustworthy product. 2/2

You know that person who knows just enough about a topic to be dangerous? That person that doesn't know enough to get the subtle nuances to make truly informed decisions... That person you roll your eyes at, because they think they're an expert, but they're not. 1/2

Is there such a thing as an insight that is *not* data driven?

One last look at visible satellite imagery from across the state as the shadow moved through TX. There was definitely a reduction in the low cloud cover as the shadow moved through...but clouds are building back with storms expected later. #txwx #ctxwx #Eclipse2024

@amyengineer I take solace in the fact that I can see that our neighbor's tree is still up. I will feel judged when I see that it's come down. 😂

@__apf__ I remember those jean jackets... imgflip.com/i/8dpiay

since I hear nineties fashion is back, here's some fashion inspo from me and my sister circa 1997. feel free to copy our fit

Totally just went down a nostalgia rabbit hole on Trumpet WInsock and discovered that it's STILL LEGIT FOR SALE. 😮

We are now further away from the release of the first iPhone (16 years) than the release of Windows Vista was from Windows 3.1 (15 years).

I don't know how this hasn't been addressed yet, since it's been an issue for at least a couple of weeks, but @GetSpectrum/@Ask_Spectrum has royally screwed up their #IPv6 routing for customers. Can't reach Cloudflare, Akamai, and a few others over #IPv6.

@Ask_Spectrum Are you aware of the #IPv6 connectivity issues right now between (some?) Spectrum customers and services hosted at Cloudflare and Akamai?

I am eternally nopeful. 😂

Lots of someones are having bad nights tonight. One someone is probably having one of the worst nights of their lives... 😬 #GoogleAdManager #outage

@slayser8 @alextcone You'd have a captive audience right out of the gate.

@alextcone Can you imagine me opening a Programmatic IO presentation with “Hey Assholes!”

Began subbing my favorite term “dude” with the more gender neutral “friend-o” but I am looking for one outside of “guys” that isn’t boring like “everyone” *yawn*

@whitneyd He also managed to get sworn in to his new city council seat in a suddenly-private swearing in ceremony... If I were the citizens of Uvalde, I would be wasting no time on a recall petition.

@amyengineer She just wanted to feel plugged in.

@amyengineer I feel like that's an accurate account of every developer's daily journey.

@slayser8 @awscloud Congrats!

Today I start my new job as Global Head of Publisher Ad Tech Solutions at @awscloud! I’ll be hibernating a bit from here until I get fully acclimated but will be back as soon as I figure out all the moving pieces.
