New professional networking tool!
I've been networking to find a new job, but I needed help remembering where I've met various people I connect with on LinkedIn. So I vibe-coded this free Chrome (or Firefox) extension. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/memory-jogger-for-linkedi/ncjgomhiffjiipeoikbnpjnkicedeckl

Mastodon now has a button for sharing content from other websites

Mastodon has added a “Share” button that allows users to share content to any Mastodon server, but doesn’t use tracking data or store user info.

As I'm winding down my work at HeroWear and looking for a new opportunity, people often ask me what kind of company I want to work for. But I'm not that picky: I've worked in exoskeletons, media, restaurants, clothing, tech, healthcare, etc. But I want to do something that is climate-positive. Could be an obvious connection or something more subtle.

So, if you know a climate-forward company looking for a senior marketing hire, send them my way.

A DOGE aide was told by ethics attorneys that he held stock in companies that Consumer Financial Protection Bureau employees are barred from owning — and was advised not to participate in any actions that could benefit him personally.

Days later, he helped fire 90% of CFPB staff anyway, including the ethics lawyers who warned him.

DOGE Aide Who Helped Gut CFPB Was Warned About Potential Conflicts of Interest

Before he helped fire most Consumer Financial Protection Bureau staffers, DOGE’s Gavin Kliger was warned about his investments and advised to not take any actions that could benefit him personally, according to a person familiar with the situation.

The upside to "batteries not included" is it usually means they're standard, common batteries, so you can use rechargeables that are easily replaced. The alternative often means either an obscure battery (coin, etc) you can't recharge, or a proprietary rechargeable that you can't replace.

Bally...er I mean Fan Duel Network really needs to turn the streaking puck off for this Preds power play (and any live play). I can't see the puck. Just looks like a mess of extra sticks on the ice. Horrible. Fox killed this back in the day for a reason #hockey #predsnhl #nhlpreds

I quit the bird site & moved to Mastodon/Bluesky ~2 yrs ago. I got used to social media being relatively quiet & mostly tech news & memes. It was nice. But with the recent migration, suddenly my timeline is 10x as active & full of angst. I love you all, but already going to do some follow trimming.

Seeing lots of people talk about how to mass-block the "other side" as everyone migrates from the bird site - which is great if you need to. But as my wife reminded me, fear and anger can come from doom scrolling allies who are raising a new red alert every 12 hours, too.

Tip for those trying to decide between Bluesky or Threads (or even Mastodon): #OpenVibe is a great (free) app that works across all 3 in a single feed. I've been using it for a few weeks. Seems to work pretty flawlessly w/ most of the features of each platform's native apps.

@dansup Thanks for the great work.

Any hope for a post scheduling feature? Like a post queue? So many photographers work in batches but the nature of their workflows but want to spread out the sharing of content over time.

I would post so much more if this existed. I'd still engage plenty. Probably more (this is how Tumblr works for me now)
