Finding my way - I talk about software a bit, management, cooking, grilling, and maybe my truck.

I've seen this before and I when I do, I always think how Steve Jobs was thinking about OOP in 2010. How this was still taking up space in his mind. Along with other basic things of life. So interesting to me.
Steve Jobs emailed this to himself a year before he died... a humbling reminder of how much we all depend on each other.

Anyone else remember when Crowdstrike took down the entire world in 2024? See that red bar middle of 2024? See where they are at today?
Wow. Someone just put $46 million into Nvidia, $NVDA, $185 calls expiring March 2027, bought at the ask. 34,696 contracts, volume of 35,802 vs. open interest of 5,064. It comes as Nvidia trades near its lowest levels in months amid the board’s investigation of Jensen Huang.

Cooler temperatures and it getting dark earlier. These are some of the best times to grill. Love the feeling.

Ed Wynn's grave - "Dear God: Thanks... Ed Wynn" I think I'll have something similar for mine.

I wonder if more places will require folks to log-in in the name of AI. But still sell information to the AI companies all the while also being able to track/target now _forced_ to log in users. Removing the free/openness of the internet. All in the name of AI.
BREAKING: Reddit, $RDDT, is going to start requiring users to log in. Reddit is becoming a ‘logged-in-only experience,’ says CEO Steve Huffman

Would love to have some more details around "after almost a year of back-and-forth with the City of Oklahoma City, their application was finally approved"
After a couple of stalled attempts, Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen is set to move forward on the southeast corner of Lake Hefner Parkway and Memorial/Kilpatrick Turnpike. The company filed for building permits in December of 2025 and after almost a year of back-and-forth with the City of Oklahoma City, their application was finally approved and issued late last week. They bought the 3.1-acre property way back in 2014 and submitted plans for that site. After stalling, they then considered a site at NW 16th and Broadway just north of downtown. In April 2025, we reported they had refiled zoning plans for the Memorial site. Pappadeaux operates 38 locations in 8 states. This would be their first restaurant in Oklahoma and work should be starting soon.

[hoping this is me] I moved a little over $20k to $SPY just recently.
Some guy buying the SP500 every month, grilling burgers in his backyard right now, and doing 0 research, will outperform a shocking number of people who spend 8 hours a day analyzing the stock market.

I haven't been on Duolingo for a few months, I think June was the last I was active. Started back up with it, and gosh Duolingo thinks I know so many words I have never seen. I keep doing the practice to learn. And no, I haven't forgotten, these really are new words

Something I've noticed that is odd to me. When I used Pandora, I only wanted to listen to Pandora generated lists. Since switching to Spotify, I am much more interested in personal lists, not Spotify generated ones

Life tip: Be genuine, then you don't have to fake anything
Life tip: keep your (fake) smile a few seconds longer at the end of a zoom/teams call.

When I built my house in 2012, I asked to run cable. The builder couldn't believe why I would want to run cable. Wifi was great, nothing else needed. I paid for 3 rooms. 2 rooms didn't get it. No regrets :)
Why are we the least informed on the largest purchases we make? Just got a $27.8k quote to wire the entire house for internet and sound. Quick scope: • 25 Cat6 runs • Whole-home Sonos audio • UniFi network • Camera system • Rack + labor I think the price is fair but do I even need everything on it?

First time using this stone. First time breaking in any new natural stone. Feels odd. Like I've ruined a neat perfect stone that has never been touched for all time. – at Nichols Hills, OK

"Resources are so important because..." I agreed. Which is why I call them people and not resources.
