I used to be a lawyer, but I got better.

Consultant for Daugherty Business Solutions. Formerly software engineer/architect for Thomson Reuters, Wells Fargo, Solera.

Even more formerly, senior research attorney for the California Court of Appeal, Fifth Appellate District.

Opinions are strictly my own, unless I stole them from you.

Minnesota, USA

Honestly very moved by Parker Molloy saying “take a beat” about blocking servers. So much of the intensity of this past week has been about judging the actions of strangers on the account of other strangers, and sometimes you do have to act on what you believe happened, or no one would act. But when someone directly involved has the courage and graciousness to say things were more complex, that’s a cultural shift in what’s possible.
This seems like an appropriate first comic for mastodon.
they put a christmas sweater on the t-rex at the national history museum in london and it's ridiculous and adorable
My warmest condolences to the LGBT community in Colorado Springs and my biggest fuck you to every republican politician that has blocked the gun control legislation that would have prevented this tragedy #ColoradoSprings
Today is #TransDayofRemembrance when we honor and remember trans lives taken by violence. How horrifying that a deadly attack upon the LGBTQ+ community in Colorado Springs should occur right before this solemn day.
Hate isn’t born in us. It is taught. It must end.
This starts with our political leaders, who must cease their cynical attacks against our community before another attack occurs.
Call out the hate. Remind them of its consequences. Hold them to account.
Next time someone complains about singular "they" I'll point them to this 17th century rant against singular "you"
this dude basically paid $44B for a domain name.
@JoeSondow thanks so much for this, makes Mastodon feel a bit more like “home”

My first time ever on a TV set, I was nervous, intimated & worried about making foolish mistakes.

My union crew encouraged, mentored, & celebrated having having a real-life scientist working on their show. They’re why I was far more confident my first time on set for my next show!

FTR what is really bad here is using a network of influence, money, and social pressure to try to convince amenable justices that a certain ruling would be welcomed or, indeed, popular.

I don’t care as much about leaks. That’s bad too but not nearly as corrosive.
