@ivory Thanks that worked!
I wish @ivory would send me push notifications. They don’t seem to be working for me. 😕

#introduction
Hi all! This is a bit overdue, but here it goes. I live in SF in the Sunset District with my wife and 2 kids. I’m not a surfer but I love the ocean.

I’m a director of engineering at Yelp, formerly Apple and a number of other companies. I spent many years as an engineer.

I love the 49ers, a good weekend hike, house projects, and live music. I grew up in the DC area and moved to SF in 2012 for work and better weather.

Sorry this isn’t funnier or more interesting. 🤷‍♂️

Getting ready for Valentine’s Day #caturday

Read my lips:

An audio show that can only be played in an Apple player on an Apple device is not a podcast.

An audio show that can only be played in Spotify is not a podcast.

Repeat ad nauseam for any other proprietary audio show platforms.

A #podcast is an #RSS feed with enclosures of audio files which are playable across the whole ecosystem of podcast players.

Any reporter who reports on exclusive audio shows and calls them “podcasts” are doing a grave disservice to their audience.

Oh, one more thing. One of the coolest things in Mammoth is the onboarding flow - native account creation, profile pics, and an incredibly useful follow suggestions graph (no more confusing “Which server should I pick?” questions) - grab an account on https://moth.social when you get started with the app before your handle is gone!
