This is my conversational account. For my work follow @ribbonfarm, @breaking_smart, @artofgig. Tweets are 90% vacuous views, apathetically held. Mediocritopian.

    Driving is becoming the Unix shell of meatspace for me. I dislike doing it, do so with decreasing frequency, grab every available bit of automation to avoid it, but haven’t escaped need entirely. And to think I was once proud of learning both. Coming of age vanities are dumb.

        Freq. is less but I’ve found fun and impact increase for me. The shell helps me debug automation’s (many) failures just like driving opens up less traveled places

        I can still remember the magic I felt discovering Unix after RSTS & VMS: It was like putting on a jetpack and being able to soar above the maze…
