If I owned a car magazine, blog, or media outlet I would not allow a review or coverage of a single electric car unless the manufacturer had a model available under $35k. I’d also forbid all coverage that made $60k+ EVs seem like affordable, reasonable, family vehicles.

This. This is what I’ve been dealing with at work. I get asked for my advice, but then argued with. So infuriating!

Ik ben een Amerikaanse data engineer, architect en teamleider. Graag help ik uw bedrijf verder! Ik spreek Nederlands en Duits, en een beetje Spaans. Ik ondersteun mkb-bedrijven graag bij hun expansie naar de Amerikaanse markt!

Trust at work is a funny thing. It is hard to earn and so easy to lose. — Leaders, it’s never about the isolated incident. Think through the impacts and how staff will perceive it! Once you’ve lost their trust, it’s near impossible to earn it back.

I’ve been really pleased with Babel. I appreciate how it actually explains grammar and conjugation. In my limited (two months) of doing Latin on Duolingo I was frustrated that conjugation was never taught.

This is why I’m so happy Babel lets you set a base language other than English. No you (formal) / you (informal) / you (plural) to worry with here!

I am finally doing the unthinkable. I am learning a language actually spoken in the Americas! — I started Spanish and I have to say it’s a fun little language. Already loving things like dropping pronouns, c & z having regional differences, and b & v being the same!

The longer I work in IT, the more thankful I am of my training at The University of Alabama. — Engineering alone doesn’t prepare you for the real world. Management and leadership are skills that must be taught, too. I’m thankful UA gave me both.

The Arnold Family urban homestead. Chickens, bunnies, squirrels. We’ve got it all!

I’ve had my Daylight DC1 for a little over a week. Mini review: I’m glad I got it. — I still wish it were iPad mini size. But, it’s been great. For the first time I’m able to use Logos as it feels/looks like an eReader. Readwise works great and highlighting is a breeze.

What are the German or Dutch companies in Nashville (or that allow remote work from Nashville) that I am not aware of? — Ich bin Amerikaner, aber ich spreche Deutsch / ik spreek Nederlands. Das müsste für jemanden hilfreich sein…

Those who have no tradition, do not respect it.

This was a helpful video. I realized I, like apparently so many men, had convinced myself to focus on hard or challenging books. I’m going to make an effort to remember to read for fun, too. — How to Start Reading Again

Wir suchen doch nach Irgendwas. Das was wir suchen heißt Jesus. Er und er allein ist die Antwort. Irgendwas

I wish USPS would have an option they’d send the night before to just go out and pick up the package at the Post Office. It’s a few blocks away! — Related, my Daylight DC-1 is arriving today. Excited!

Ich suche eine Stelle bei europäischen Unternehmen, die einen erfahrenen Data- und Software-Leader benötigen.

Ich arbeite remote aus den USA, aber vierteljährliche Reisen ins Homeoffice werden erwartet.

I’ve been using Firefox since before it was “Firefox.” Starting this week, though, I’ve been giving Orion a try. I’ve lost too much trust in Mozilla to not give something else a go.
