I have to say the skiandsnowboard.live is doing a much better job covering #crosscountryski this year. The new announcer is clearly a skier who knows this world! #xcski

Starting my wind down from twitter in phases. You can find me @panmanphil@mastodon.social Phase 1 - disable all twitter notifications (done) Phase 2 - uninstall the app Phase 3 - limit visits to the web site Phase 4 - we'll see!

I've been in Mastodon since 2019 but have been more active in the last few months. @panmanphil" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mastodon.social/@panmanphil I do worry about the work for volunteers running mastodon.social, anybody want to kick the tires sharing the work and costs of hosting an instance?

@saragazarek Mastodon is definitely short on of jazz people, ask me anything!

@natalie_eilbert @carrielorig Ok, but not everywhere in NE WI!

@carrielorig This is what happens when you order a glass of red wine

Northeast Wisconsin continues to find new ways to shock me. This is a bowl of chili.

@SusanPotter @norootcause Exactly right. The second ok be could be authenticated too with the assumption that it is used in triage

Should a service's health check fail if a critical dependency of that service is down?

@natalie_eilbert Bike ride

What have you done to take care of yourself today?

@natalie_eilbert Note to self?

Hey, in case you need this reminder, you should probably eat something and drink some water. Then, if you're feeling spunky, close your eyes for the count of 10 breaths and not immediately stare at a screen. <3

@natalie_eilbert Bay Area Yoga would be a good guess. Teaching teachers is part of what they do

What's the best yoga studio for advanced yogis in the Green Bay area?

@codermeow I cancelled my delta card a few months back. Never seemed able to the companion, didn't get perks on partner airlines like KLM

I moved cities and now my Southwest card is kinda useless seeing that Boston is not a hub so I'm thinking about canceling it and getting a new travel card. Suggestions? Was thinking about the Delta card, but I know y'all been stanning over some of the other cards.

Word of the day is ‘bloviate’ (19th century): to speechify or sound off on subjects the bloviator probably knows very little about.

@natalie_eilbert I remember when I stopped calling myself a musician with a day job. Long, long after it has stopped being true. The economic reality was obvious. But I'm still a musician aspiring to play great music

I told my therapist I don't feel like a poet anymore and she asked, "What does it feel like, to be a poet?" And I didn't know. I really didn't.

@SaraCaswellVLN @GilEvansProject @birdlandjazz You will kill it!

“Sketches of Spain” has long been my favorite of the Gil Evans/Miles Davis collaborations, so to play the entire album w/ the @GilEvansProject at @birdlandjazz 2 miles from where the album was recorded 60+ years ago is a dream come true.

@Cenli Just the kind of thing I did as a kid but with better components

Looking for a hand-on activity for your young campers at #ThatConference? Join us to learn about series and parallel circuits and create cool circuit projects of your own! Tues, 7/26 at 4pm, Room 6 that.us/activities/sql…

@natalie_eilbert And it was good!

Biking 20 miles is easy when Zesty’s is on the other side. My first time. Today’s flavor is butterfinger.

I'm happy to be back at That Conference! Working on generating chaos at the moment, kind of the opposite of daily life. Can OpenTelemetry unpack chaos? You'll have to see my talk and decide for yourself.

@SusanPotter But even so, the age penalty for insurance is brutal. My new employer's plan is much less per month with a similar deductible and HSA arrangement

@SusanPotter While indie part of the plan was a music related software idea. So,spouse got a salary and then found a group plan for a 2 employee company. Much less expensive than marketplace plan

This is a friendly reminder that Ohio House Republicans are advancing a bill to teach BOTH SIDES OF THE HOLOCAUST.
