A human living in Tacoma, WA with my partner and our two dogs.

Enjoy cooking, crafting, hiking, an occasional run and I’ve been known to ski down a hill now and then.

I have recently have gotten into pottery and sewing as new hobbies having taken local classes recently in Tacoma.


Diversity and inclusion matter!

Oh, I run Tacoma.Community!

I can foresee in programming jobs a new perk being introduced: not having to use LLMs to write code, and instead being allowed to hand-write even if that seems probably slower from a manager perspective.

Because writing code yourself is how you become better at it. Writing a better prompt won’t make you a better programmer.

Q for folks experienced in #knitting or #crochet and also #sewing

Is there any way to incorporate t-shirt fabric into a knit/crochet garment?

I have a load of beloved geeky t-shirts that don’t fit i but hate to get rid of because I love the designs on them. I can’t sew for shit but am ok at knitting and, to a lesser extent, crochet.

I had the thought of cutting out the tshirt designs and incorporating them into knitted tops but don’t know if thats possible tension/construction wise?

A few of our succulents did this as well this year and was something I was not aware even happened. Happy surprises all around.

Lookie! My garden is doing a thing! 🌼 I've had hens-and-chicks before but this is the first time they've gone and bloomed for me. Succulents are fun!
