OK, so I started watching #Blakes7 more than 43 years late and, while it's interesting and entertaining, it's got its problems...
Question: does the burn ban in MultCo mean no use of enclosed (non propane) camp stoves in public parks? I want to make Bosnian coffee again on the OTO ride but not sure it's allowed.
Hope to see you at Odd Tuesday Outing tonight! We meet at Colonel Summers at 6PM, ride at 6:30PM. Tonight's end spot (Cully Park) should be a great spot to watch the sunset! #pedalpalooza
This Botticellis album is an underrated relic of the mid-aughts surf-pop-chillwave boom. It’s really great and I wish they hadn’t disappeared afterwards. thebotticellis.bandcamp.com/album/old-home…

Are you redefining comfort during eternal Caturday?

One thing that sticks out to me here is adding staff to the compliance team. So often companies fail to fix cultural problems until they become compliance issues...

🎉 So happy to have Jarret Raim on board as @MissionCloud CISO and Security Practice Leader! He's already upped our game. Can't wait to see the long-term impact he can have for Mission and our customers.
You know what would be great? A VESA mount for iPad Pro that connects to the iPad magnetically like the Magic Keyboard does. Anyone know of such a thing?

Activision Blizzard employees wrote a letter to executives yesterday to protest the company's hiring of union-busting firm WilmerHale. "WilmerHale’s pre-existing relationships with Activision Blizzard and its executives create an unacceptable conflict of interest," they said.
DeepMind cofounder Mustafa Suleyman humiliated employees, gossiped about firing subordinates, and used to say "I crush people'" according to colleagues:
Following this leave of absence, Suleyman was effectively promoted to a VP role at Google, two steps removed from CEO Sundar Pichai. Insiders expressed outrage at Suleym...
I have no idea how to fix being behind on everything. Got any suggestions? I need like a week off my day job to catch up on my business at this rate 😅
Everyone's posting their final Fleets, and I'm…
What a surprise! National Labor Relations Board found that Amazon violated labor law in the Bessemer warehouse Union vote and recommends a new election. Amazon bombarded employees with anti-union texts and ads & created an impression they could read secret ballots.
