I'm a software developer and Managing Partner for Fynydd and Blue Sequoyah Technologies, the project lead for Coursabi, and Āthepedia founder. I also have several nerdy open source projects on Github.
I'd describe myself as an Oxford comma advocate, autodidact, aspiring polymath, and boffin, with a mechanical keyboard addiction. You can also find me on Mastodon.
#Trump admin ordered NWS to disavow Alabama forecast so Trump won’t look bad over Sharpie-gate. Mulvaney claims they want to clear the record because the NWS tweet “went too far”. A weather report tweet went too far. Let that sink in. Trump can’t even tell the truth about weather.
Is #Trump’s ego so fragile that he has to direct Wilbur Ross to threaten to fire NOAA staff that contradict his Sharpie hurricane forecasts? They were responding to calls from frightened Alabamans. So now we’re politicizing the weather.
When #Apple #iOS autocorrect changes “assume” to “ass you me both” it reminds me that I am so not worried about a robot apocalypse.
Does anyone else think it’s weird that a veterinarian can save a cow’s life and then eat a steak for dinner?
Emma Lazarus, whose poem is at the foot of the Statue of Liberty, was a Sephardic Jew with roots in Brazil and Portugal. She meant what she wrote. It wasn’t an allegory for white Europeans of means. Don’t believe the racist lies from Steven Miller and the Trump White House.
Yeah. Fuck animals.

It’s interesting that the people who think violent video games are bad seem to forget that prior to that kids would play cowboys and indians with cap guns, re-enacting the slaughter of native Americans.
Walmart pulls in-store displays for violent video games but keeps selling guns because dumb people believe that helps.
I just read a tech article with only one period. Every other sentence ended with an exclamation point. Now I hate enthusiasm. Thanks Internet.
It’s weird that vegetarians like their vegetables combined and pressed into a patty that looks and tastes like meat. It’s like a food version of Brokeback Mountain. “Meat: I just can’t quit you.”
I wonder if there’s an alternate universe where carnitarians eat their meats combined and formed into tiny shapes that look and taste like vegetables.
When you see “5Ge” on your AT&T Wireless phone it’s really just 4G. It would be nice if carriers didn’t lie to us in order to compete with each other.
The #Trump #GOP complains that #twitter bias against them should be illegal after supporting Citizens United.
According to this billboard the wedding of my dreams involves a #Windows Vista device activation dialog.
Watching a commercial for that digital exercise mirror and I realized that all it really has to do is show you a picture of someone good-looking.
“Dad, if a bra is called an over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder, why aren’t men’s underwear called an under-the-butt-nut-hut?”

Can you imagine having to work this way because your MacBook keyboard is so uncomfortable? #Apple it’s time for a new MBP keyboard.
George R. R. Martin wrote: “Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armour yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.”
To which I ask “what if you’re an asshole?”
