Hey, I’m Jim Mitchell. Wrangler of nerds. Herder of cats. Butcher of code. Abuser of ellipses... Statistically, I probably like you.

This is a quick note published from my new Micropub client app on a Mac different than my development machine. I’ve been testing the iOS and iPadOS versions on my hardware too. All three are coming along nicely. If your site is Micropub enabled and you’d like to try my app, get in touch through socials or email.

Every time I try to switch to Ivory as my Mastodon client, I find myself switching back to Mona after just a few days. The reason being? It’s all about the threading. I love being able to see a toot in context. Just saying…

It’s been a really long Sunday morning on a deployment call with a direct report and consultants. What was supposed to be two hours max turned into four and a half hours, mostly due to unpreparedness. This one definitely needs a post-mortem meeting… Maybe I can salvage the rest of the day.

A few photos I’ve taken over the last couple of years.

The all-hands event is done. Some minor glitches, but considering there was zero opportunity given for a dry-run, I think it turned out okay. It’s funny to hear conversations around me now that I’m back at my desk. Everyone has an opinion. I’m making a list of the haters so I can recommend they do the job next time.

The A/V experts came in this morning to review my setup for the all-hands meeting tomorrow morning. Both gave it a thumbs up and actually complimented me on my work. Feather, cap, say hello.
