Time to head home! Successful 8th trip to Kyiv to visit #TeamSPS! 🛫
Just preordered 1Blocker X. I rely on 1Blocker to keep me protected on the web. I use it on all my devices.
I’ve never understood why people wrap their luggage. I see this mostly on international travel. Turns out it’s mainly to prevent tampering! Why would you wrap your luggage in plastic?
My collection of travel cables is bonkers. 😬

Remember headphone cables? Those were bothersome.

Enjoyed Darkest Hour. 🎬
🌨 It is still snowing in Minneapolis. 🤦♂️ I am flying to Ukraine 🇺🇦 tomorrow and will be enjoying the actual Spring weather!
Snow day seems like a good day to get the Z-Scale train out.
Model trains are always fun. Tyler and I are running the train yard today. Z-Scale is hard though.
With all the amazing capabilities of the iPhone camera system, it still can’t expose snow properly. I have to up the exposure on all of them. Perhaps Apple needs some camera engineers that don’t live in California.
Well over a foot of snow to deal this morning. Heavy too with the warm temperatures recently. Had to go at the slowest speed.
Cleared three neighbors driveways out with my snowblower. Building karma points today. 👍🏻
Planning to just let the snow keep falling, and get completely snowed in until tomorrow morning, then I’ll get the snowblower out. Seems like time for family movie night! 🍿
Minnebar 13
Today I went to my 13th Minnebar — I haven’t missed one yet! For the first time ever we had a blizzard to contend with. Usually Minnebar is competing with the first great days of spring. This year, we were worried if people could get to the event because of the snow. This was also the first Minnebar for our new Maria Ploessl, our new Executive Director, to take the lead on. The event went off great, with more coordination than the last couple of years.
The sessions I went to today at Minnebar.
- Computers Are Easy; People Are Hard with Bridget Kromhout
- Propelling More Women into the Ranks of Engineering Leadership with Ashley Monseth, Rebecca McCann-Young, Ethan Sommer, Cailin Wertish, and Millicent Walsh
- Blogging for Fun…..and Profit? with Chris Moffitt
- Web 3.0: Blockchain May Provide Us the Most Human Version of the Web with Matt Bauwens
- Pragmatic intro to functional programming with David Price
- Docker 101 with Rebecca McCann-Young
- Building Sandcastles with Leah Cunningham
Here are some pictures from some of the sessions I went to.
