My external SSDs have been going belly up often. I just watched this video that said that the USB-C on Macs suck (paraphrasing here). Now I need to get a Windows system to copy this data to another SSD. Sharing in case anyone else is impacted by this.

I spent all afternoon failing to download Adobe Creative Cloud thinking it was my router. Only to find out it was AWS all along.
…must be nice. 😂
Just got here in time for @torc.dev @renderatl.com lunch 😋
hanging with my buddies @roxaidan.bsky.social @codeovercoffee.bsky.social

Finally made it to this @refactr.tech event. Got to see some of my favorite people in these ATL Engineering streets, @kvlly.com and @adriannavaldivia.dev
My kids’ last day of school was yesterday so they are home with us today. First order of business for my son: Fall down the stairs, of course.
Note: He’s perfectly fine. Tears. Hugs. And he’s back to asking to play PS5.
You may be reading that last thread and thinking “oh wow. That pot roast must be good. Doug…..share the code.”
Yes. It is good.
No. I will not. I’m gatekeeping this one, baby. Note how I never mentioned the restaurant's name? Find your own damn pot roast.
Now I know EVERYTIME that restaurant has pot roast available. It’s such a beautiful thing.
….oh yeah. And I kinda did a thing in Golang and deployed to GCP.
There’s a restaurant that serves a MEAN pot roast. They change the menu daily and I always miss it. Being the fatass that I am, I created a serverless function in Golang to check the menu daily around lunch. If they have the pot roast on the menu, I get a notification via a Slack.
Two of my goals this year was to dive into cloud hosting and learn Golang. I’m proud to say I’ve started with GCP and have deployed my first Golang serverless function. Now you may be thinking that this was all inspired by my goals. Oh no my friend. It was fueled by me being a fatass.
Forever #saleslefters 💙
Stepped out to this @refactr.tech event. Great to kick it with @adriannavaldivia.dev for a minute.
Wearing new sneakers to an event and standing the entire time is not the smartest idea.
…but they fly tho.
nobody's going to be beat @dthompsondev.bsky.social in a typing speed test

There are only like 7 Christmas songs and they simply remix ‘em with a new singer or update the production.
Up wrapping gifts at the last minute? Anybody? 🙋🏾♂️
The most diabolical thing Skittles has done is turning the green apple flavor to lime. Who made that decision?
My daughter took her own braids down and then “styled” it herself. The style is lowkey fire. She’s 6. She’s growing up fast and I’m not ok right now.
I kinda want to get back to making a weekly video about something. It was a little therapeutic to put my ideas and thoughts into video form. And it was fun to make my friends characters in the skits. However it definitely was a time drain.
My kids play the rhyming game during meals. My son loves to replace the first letter with ‘s’.
What rhymes with fit? Sit.
What rhymes with map? Sap.
What rhymes with bug? Sug.
What rhymes with British? Shitish.
Containing laughter is a must as a parent to prevent shitish from getting out of hand.
While in line at the movies I ask a younger couple (maybe mid-20s) if they were in line. This mafucka says to me “Yes sir. But you can go ahead”
SIR?!? Who is the sir, you lil disrespectful shit! Call me bro. Twin. Buddy. Hell, call me mafucka.
Anything but sir.
Share the sauce when you get this answer.
I finally completed a “quick task” turned “long ass project” that has been kicking my ass. I wish I could bottle this excitement up and sell it.
I can eat Waffle Crisp ceral all day. I’m glad Post made the right decision and brought it back. I just need it widely available now.
Just realized I have 300 followers. Thank you guys for the follow. I hope to keep it interesting for you.
