I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: if you put your jacket in the overhead bin on a plane, you’re a dick. Suck it up and sit on it like the rest of us do.
If you put your carryon in an overhead bin waaaay in front of your seat, you’re a dick.
Moral of the story: don’t be a dick.
The last few weeks have very much had a "plan from which to deviate" kind of vibe. For someone who is a planner, it's kind of stressful, but I'm learning to roll with it. ✌️
I’m in a state of flux. I’m both horrified and amazed by AI.

In a first-ever video collaboration with my teammate Adam Gardner, we explore the new @dynatrace.com Smartscape app with #OpenTelemetry Demo App data emitted in the latest installment of "Dynatrace Can Do THAT with OpenTelemetry?"

As a techie with a pretty open mind and 25 yrs of industry experience, including 16 yrs of Java, I was hesitant to try out vibe coding, until I finally took the plunge. What I learned surprised me, and from speaking with other senior folks, I'm not alone in my thoughts.

The ADHDer’s guide to sending #OpenTelemetry data to Dynatrace. As you can see, I’m getting more creative with my videos, switching locales and all. 😁😁
The paintings in the background were done years ago by my kiddo, and it’s kind of a hilarious coincidence that they’re the @dynatrace.com colours.
The GenZ kids still Rickroll each other!

I've gotta ask...what was the app?
THOSE STILL EXIST?? 🤯
I've gotten lazy (or more productive?) and started using voice dictation on my phone to send texts. It's funny to see how Siri (mis)interprets some of the words I say in my Canadian English accent. EH! 🤣🇨🇦
@didiviking.bsky.social had been following my work on LinkedIn for about a year before I finally got to meet her in person at CND Austria and CND Bergen last fall. And now, she's on my podcast. Check out her episode!
