This should be very interesting to anyone following the quantum industry.

Thanks to the Empwr.ai team for their partnership in streamlining @seawolves.rugby's communications and workflow management. Our team's grit benefits from every advantage Empwr.ai's intelligence give us.

The Seawolves + Filson 2025 Collection is here. It’s a statement of Seattle’s grit, heritage, and relentless pursuit of excellence. It blends Filson's legendary craftsmanship with the Seawolves' winning spirit. shop.seawolves.rugby/collections/... #SeawolvesRugby #Filson #TogetherWeHunt

Big news from Microsoft #quantum last week. Clearly great work continues to unfold there, but we need learn more before accepting all of the claims around #majorana1. I wrote up some thoughts about what's likely real versus hype. upshiftintelligence.com/microsofts-c...

Hey @ferries.wsdot.wa.gov, how about a SJI alerts account here, perhaps @sji.ferries.wsdot.wa.gov? Could be powered by your existing alerts system and would be a great service. Currently nicely unofficial as @sji-wsfupdates.bsky.social

Another step in my deMETAfication was creating a Bluesky Starter Pack to attract some good friends from bad networks. These are so easy to make. go.bsky.app/zRrHQS

32 years ago, in 1993, a 32-bit compiler was an enormous leap for developers building on WinNT 3.1. One of the first validation tests I wrote was a quick sanity check that (sizeof(int) == 4). Still a bizarrely vivid memory. Looking forward to catching up with the team this spring.

Hey early VC++ team skeeps, VC1<<5, our 32nd anniverary meetup, is April 5, 2-5pm, location Seattle/Eastside-TBD. Save the date. Check out the event page in our FB group or DM/email me for details.

And again @seawolves.rugby!

We’ll take that @seawolves.rugby try!

Hey early VC++ team skeeps, I’m organizing another old-timers get together in Seattle, afternoon of Saturday March 22, 29, or April 5. TBD. “VC1<<5: return 2025;” Click on the date picker poll on the VC++ team group on the FB-hellsite to vote your preferred date(s). Or DM/email me your prefs.

I am deMETAifying (a term I stole from @jeff.henshaw.org ) Deleted my FB and IGs. I can’t support what they are doing anymore. WhatsApp is next. Moving to Signal.

No idea if I'm the first to coin this term or not, but #deMETAfication and #deMETAfying are part of my 2025 New Years resolutions. WhatsApp just deleted from all devices, IG and FB accounts hard-closed. More #RSS, #ATproto, and @signal.org.

Great idea found in a recent Joey's Hoard post about ditching algorithms: joeyehand.com/blog/2025/01... Instead of wallowing in YouTube's engagement algorithm, add subscribed channels to an RSS reader for a simple, chronological view. Found via @makoism.com's Espresso Shots. Thanks to both of them.

Felt good to escape my work space for a few minutes today to visit the goat department. #severance

Huge thanks to Seattle Rugby Club for showing up with heart and commitment and help us prepare for the 2025 Season in a testament to Seattle's passion, resilience, and hunger for rugby. Rugby future here is undoubtable. More » lnkd.in/gqz259zJ #SeawolvesRugby #MLR2025 #TogetherWeHunt

Too strong, too fast, too good. FINAL presented by WaFd Bank #SeawolvesRugby #MLR2025 #TogetherWeHunt

Sailing to the mainland for a @seawolves.rugby match tomorrow night.

Power moves made. ESPN and MLR have reached a multiyear media rights agreement, ensuring every MLR match is streamed live on ESPN+, with select matches on ESPN2. Live coverage of the 2025 season begins Feb 15 on ESPN+ Press release: bit.ly/MLRonESPN

Testing the @Flashes.blue app for #atproto. Nice work so far! More snow on the way.

New Years 2025 resolution: Use #Signal more instead of WhatsApp (including donating to Signal to help keep it running). Renewing emphasis on this now. signal.org
