We have two cats. One is like a close friend: very playful and affectionate. The other is like a colleague: our relationship is purely professional, and touching is terribly inappropriate.

Loaded nachos are the Jenga of appetizers. One wrong move and you have a complete mess on your hands.

I chased a longstanding network speed issue to a specific ethernet cable in my house. I unplugged and tested it: it performed fine. I plugged it back in and the network worked perfectly. Clearly a case of Schrödinger's Cat6.

I just used the last swab from a mega Costco Q-tip box. It's the end of an eara.

Don't have the Androids audiobook yet? Or need a second copy to listen to it in stereo? My publisher is running a 50% off sale through September 5, get yours for $10: https://t.co/9ulLQE08Mz

After spending 3 hours on a 3.4 mile journey on i680 yesterday, it was hard not to appreciate the sarcasm in this exit ramp sign. Well played, Caltrans.

I ran a half marathon in Chicago this morning. I'm not sure my head is in the right place for racing. In the last mile, someone had a sign that read "IF YOU RUN FASTER YOU'LL FINISH FASTER," which made me think, "Finish *Sooner*, not *Faster*"

Wait, you *still* haven't listened to #AndroidsBook? What are you waiting for? A sale? Good call: my publisher is selling the audiobook for 50% off until May 11 here: https://t.co/0ndQCLgdCp

I just donated all 2024 royalties from my Androids book to @BlackGirlsCode (Previously, royalties were split between BGC and Women Who Code, but WWC dissolved this year. I guess I didn't sell enough books to keep them solvent.) https://t.co/7VuBKe2d9I https://t.co/U2JBujLEiI

My main regret with the No Starch Press edition of my Androids book is that they somehow left out the intro quote from @ficus. It's such a perfect start to the story. So we fixed the problem today for the books I had.

Actually https://t.co/zyWgr9ggt9 I changed my handle to my domain (@chethaase.com), which changed the profile URL (same account though, which retains anyone who followed via the previous handle)

Hearing the bagpipes play in the park across the street makes me wistful for a time earlier in my life, when the window was closed.

Even in the middle of a big city, you can still enjoy nature and wildlife.

That moment in the shower after a long run in the rain when you realize all the places on your body that had been chafing the entire time.

Headline on Google News. Journalism is dead.

Hey listeners! My audiobook publisher has my #AndroidsBook at 50% off through Oct 11th: https://t.co/00Ecv4ZyOD If you hadn't gotten around to the book yet, and were looking for a way to listen to me for ten hours straight, this could be your chance!

Closed, Now Open, and Open Soon. I think this place has all the bases covered.

Thanks for suggestions on this. I ended up parking the data in Notes (MacOS), which was easy given .ENEX import/export. Not a perfect solution since I don't have it on my phone, but it was a quick/easy way to at least migrate the old data for now.
