A petite long haired tuxedo cat with white mittens and white whiskers is inside her triangular scratching furniture sharpening her very bitchy claws.
This is Cookie. She’s very good at being cute but she’s bad at puzzles and totally doesn’t get sarcasm.
I realized today that for the first time in my career, my team (8 engineers) is 50% women 💃🏻 AND 50% of our senior devs are women.

I’m recording audio for a new Pluralsight course, and I am sorry. I simply cannot pronounce “contextual descriptors” without tripping over my own tongue. 🫠
In case anyone is wondering about the crowd size of Trump’s Iowa campaign rally, just know that more people attend a suburban middle school band concert on a Tuesday night than were at that rally. 😂
Remember when Kristi Noem signed a law in South Dakota to allow permit-less open carry so that South Dakotans could open carry their loaded AR-15s at Walmart and how she had the audacity this weekend to say “why would anyone bring a loaded weapon to a peaceful protest?”
The solution is to refactor the store to combine feature functionality that belongs together into a single feature so the consuming signal store consumes that feature wrapper instead of the individual feature parts.
I joined a very specific club today. I finally managed to compose together too many @ngrx.io SignalStores 😂
In case you are wondering, it manifests as a “no overload matches this call” error on the first feature of the store.

Ooo buyer beware it might not work well against scrofula
My family is dressed up like doctors wearing lab coats. We all have on blue gloves and myself and my kids have a glob of ointment on our first two fingers. My husband is holding a gallon sized jar of “Hermans root and herb curative liniment”. The card reads “this Christmas give the gift of Hermans” and it lists a bunch of illnesses it can cure including scrofula, dropsy, Black Death, restless legs, autism, French pox, and tennis elbow. A ribbon in the corner says “this is your pappy’s liniment”
This is the back of the card there are many photos of my family demonstrating how to use Hermans. In one photo our cat is licking Hermans off a comically large syringe. We claim that a spoonful cures belly aches, that it’s a doctor in a jar, and that it contains home grown ingredients. The largest photo is of the whole family. One kid has hermans all over their hands and is licking it off both hands, I am rubbing hermans into my neck, my husband is brushing his teeth with hermans, and my daughter has a LOT of hermans all over her face. The text reads: This Christmas, give the gift of timeless health with Herman’s Curative Liniment! Buy our classic 128 fl. oz. jar or our new, easy-to-swallow pills for the family on the go! With once forgotten ailments like measles making a comeback, why not trust a remedy from the good ‘ol days? Rub it on, eat it up, apply it anywhere. Yes, anywhere! Our all natural ingredients are safe for everyone in the family, including your pets. And how do we know our liniment jelly works? We simply believe in our hearts that it does! It’s the perfect cure for the modern malady and the perfect gift under the tree. Get some Hermans today, your mitochondria will thank you!
It would be time for the holidays without my family making a truly ridiculous Christmas card.
Fun fact: these stickers can express lots of thoughts about current affairs and fit nicely in a pocket when visiting gas stations and grocery stores…
Me with my two kids after we all voted, we are holding “I voted today” stickers.
Election Day in my precinct wasn’t all that exciting, all the candidates I liked were running unopposed, but what did make it exciting is that my youngest cast their first vote in an actual election 🥹 I can’t wait to vote with both of my kids in the midterms next year.
This is where art and engineering overlap. Learning to not be precious about your work clears the way for tremendous growth and innovation.
It’s always weird to find the actual line the republicans won’t cross. Nazi tattoos? Totally fine, you get to be the secretary of defense. Nazi texts? Not this week buddy.
YASSSSSS!!! My expression changed from 😢 to 😁
There was a Jay Bell shaped hole in our hearts 😭
I totally see a smile!

Once again it was so great to see my #angular family at Ng-conf! It was had a great time seeing everyone who could make it, and miss everyone who could not!
Do it. Do the parrot sound!
It was great to see you!

Mark is good people!
But isn’t that cannibalism?
Have you seen the movie Mickey 17?
I think about it every time I open a new chat window, because I get a different version of CoPilot every time. Sometimes I get one that follows the instructions we added to the repo, other times I get the chaotic evil version that randomly deletes half of my code
