This is from a job posting I applied to this evening. I’m also pointing out the oversight when I contact them.
It doesn’t help when my coworker sends me my own words from June 2023 about this project.
Turns out, it’s ended up exactly how I predicted. sigh
Made a fire outside. Sister-in-law came over and we grilled burgers and sweet potatoes. I’ll take a warm February night.
There is no wrong way to play games. If you want to turn a brutally hard game into a cozy flower picking sim, do it. (May require one sister.)

Making tiny foods with my wife is very peaceful and a nice craft night ritual.
🧘 I’ve started my yoga (with Adriene) practice again and I’m looking to add some daily meditations to my life.
It’s overwhelming. Do you have a meditation practice you followow? When I turn to yoga, it’s with Adriene. When I meditate, who is my Adriene?
Dec 23rd: CPAP machine starts making terrible buzzing/grinding sounds as the motor is dying. Can’t sleep without it so multi-night “send it away” repairs aren’t really feasible. Feb 19th: Finally get appointment with sleep medicine place. March 19th: Sleep study. Maybe I’ll sleep in Q2 of this year.
Two authors with books about Twitter from different perspectives interview each other on their process, their direction and trying to write about a company that no longer exists.
I love this idea and enjoyed the conversation about writing in the same world but in very different ways. I agree with Casey Newton’s note, this was a fun read!
After the robins flew off, they settled in a tree across the road and continued odd their song.
I wish I could share the nine American Robins sitting in the tree with their red breasts ablaze with the setting sun.
They had burning breasts as the golden light kissed their feathers as they chirped and sang.
It was a beautiful moment this evening.
I turned 43 today and am stilll giddy when there’s a chance of snow in the forecast.
I want to learn how to get outside of the Auto setting on my camera. I want to learn how to take advantage of the camera and learn how to adjust it to take photos. I want to take pictures of birds in trees and at feeders and the moon when it’s big and beautiful.
There’s a trillion courses and Youtube videos and guides and I am a little overwhelmed with all of the options. I need a beginner resource. I’ve tried a bit here and there before but never devoted the time to it. This is the year I’ve set aside time (and money) to learn.
I am happy to trade money for knowledge. Any recommendation on resources?
Connections absolutely wrecked us tonight.
My wife and I sit down to play Wordle, Connections and the day’s crossword from The NY Times games app.
I look forward toward to Connections everyday. It’s one of those small joys that connects us.
But wow, today we did not get a single one.
“One away…”
You’ve heard of Picture-In-Picture. New! From Netflix comes Picture -ON-Picture!

Man sleeps with CPAP
In an out, whining motor
Sleep box prevents sleep
I’ve been keeping a diary for thirty-three years and write in it every morning. Most of it’s just whining, but every so often there’ll be something I can use later: a joke, a description, a quote. It’s an invaluable aid when it comes to winning arguments. ‘That’s not what you said on February 3, 1996,’ I’ll say to someone. — David Sedaris , Writer
Everyone whines into their journal.
Found via the Field Notes email from today.
Building tiny foods and baking them in place with resin is very satisfying. I deeply enjoyed placing popcorn kernels and tiny noodles into my chicken noodle soup.
They’re called MGA’s Miniverse - Make It Mini. There’s food and lifestyle ones and other kinds.
Absolutely as absurd and cheesy as you would guess. But I still enjoyed its mindless “screwups save the day” story.
At the end of the ride it’s just one man’s search for a sandwhich. Or taco. Maybe a cake. Or perhaps just a little bit of chocolates.
Finished reading: Starter Villain by John Scalzi 📚
Absolutely loved it. Read part and let Wil Wheaton read part. Light and silly fun to start the new year.
