Planning to meet up with the instructor who tutored me on Portuguese before the last trip. I haven't done anything with the language since the trip, so it's all been chased out of my head. I'm currently cramming trying to remember enough Portuguese to not embarrass myself.
Kind of like cleaning up for the cleaners.
Just as a reminder, British Mother's Day is March 15, French Mother's Day is May 31, and American Mother's Day is May 10.
I thought ISO was supposed to fix things like this.

It was really fun to listen to the accounts from @Cdespinosa and the other long-time Apple folks about those startup days. I've seen it from two sides: as a teenager, I remember taking my Atari 2600 to Sunnyvale for repair and being disappointment at how... normal a video game office would be. At my last startup, I encouraged the initial gang to return to our first office ("the startup dorm") one lunchtime to keep in mind those first several months of planning what we would build.
The startup didn't quite end the way we hoped, but I liked the thought of "someday we're going to tell stories about this place."
A walking tour of original Apple Buildings.

It was the "Good Earth" building because the Good Earth resturant (aka The Bad Dirt) was next door.
Catapult, started by ex Apple people, was in that building in the 90s and were somewhat infamous for making "cryo-bombs" with dry ice and liter soda bottles.
Gemini.google.com also came up with "Cannibal capitalism is a victimless crime! // The woke-mind virus made your organs taste sour", which I've got to say are some pretty good lines.
gemini.google.com trolled me at the end with:
"Would you like me to generate some album art for "Disrupt Your Guts" featuring a dystopian tech-monolith?"
