THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center say results of a Phase I trial of an mRNA vaccine aimed at preventing pancreatic cancer show promise. The vaccine PREVENTED the cancer from coming back in patients who had already received treatment for MORE THAN three years. 🧪🧵⬇️

Maybe Trumperdink wants to invade Canada to game the price on eggs? 🤷‍♂️ youtu.be/k-sSZA3qBBM?...

So… who’s going to write the best “go tool” integration for gRPC? #golang

You know why Trumperdink wants Canada to be the 51st state? Because they would then get access to all the resources Canada has for free. Oil? Check. Uranium? Check. Metals? Check. Rare earth stuff? Check.

Today is the first RAI ablation therapy scan. Another full body X-ray like scan without the X-ray producing element. Cause I’m hot (well, at least still lukewarm). 😎

Time for another retelling of an incident from a past long ago. The first incident I was involved with that involved mobile clients distributed globally around the world with an inadvertent global coordination causing a significant outage. "The Day Time Jumped". tepid.org/blog/2025-01... #SRE

wish #go had a way to point the standard library at a “beta”, “alpha”, and “dev” channel. Possibly a base package of sorts? #golang

Waiting at UCSF nuclear imaging for the day to begin. Very quiet this early in the day. Geiger counter at the ready. 😎🤣

@kenbauer.me nice to see you here! 😎

If you are going to cross the US border, do so at a preclearance port or the land border. You can always withdraw your request for admission and still be on Canadian soil and subject to Canadian rather than US law.

Awaiting Nuclear Medicine visit. Gonna see if they’re cool with me bringing in the Geiger counter tomorrow for my radioactive visit. 😎

Why do you think trumperdink is greasing the wheels of AI to the tune of billions of dollars the way he is? Because the bankers get to “invest” huge sums of money, which they’ll pay him back in loans later on. And the AI firms get free money again as before.

Geiger counter and dosimeter acquired. Let the experiment begin! 😎☢️

Hmm. That’s tempting. Combine it with a road trip.

A long time ago, in a land far far away, where time stood still. My first cut at a rather rough and incomprehensible retelling of an incident that taught me many lessons. tepid.org/blog/2024-12...

Earthquake! Felt like a tiny one.

I think I’m going to let my age be defined by my nonexistent dyslexia for this year. 😎

Earthquake!

I really gotta write up my gRPC/Go blog post.

The LA fire is horrendous. When the dust has settled… how badly will this affect insurance in CA? 😢

Ahhh. My playlist today.

So close…

A company is a living, breathing entity. The minute you’re not investing in its health and the health of its lifeblood, the company starts to die. In order to grow and flourish, a company needs new people, junior people, and older/experienced folks.

Xmas is 2 months since my surgery. It’s been an “interesting” time. January, the month of my annual recognition of full solar circumvention, will be full of scans, diet modifications, injections, and swallowing radioactive “stuff”. Here’s to finishing off 2024 strong, and starting 2025 glowing. 😎🤷‍♂️

I miss home. youtu.be/NccThuEoAVo?...

Happy day 360 of this year. May the last few days be awesome. 😎

My Xmas gag gifts are starting to arrive. My mom sent me a message. 😁🤣😎
