BLOG ALERT! www.arcticdba.se/posts/tooth-... Sugar went from luxury to ubiquitous poison before we understood what it was doing to us. We're doing the exact same thing with AI, adding it to everything without genuine use cases while it erodes literacy and critical thinking. #AI #Literacy

Smart kitty hiding from the rain.

Mt. Rainier looked really cool today. Poking up through one layer of clouds and into the next.

Well, didn’t know until today that I needed an ETA for Canada when just grabbing a connecting flight. At least it was a pretty quick process. And I had given myself a good buffer at SEATAC

There is some resemblance @sqlclause.no…

A rare shot of @rodjkidd.bsky.social actually in front of the camera AND on stage.

#sqlfamily #passsummit #passdatasummit there is no welcome reception tonight as far as I can tell. If you want to go to a large gathering make sure you go to the networking event at 5:00

Interesting bug in the Icelandair app. Some boarding passes simply disappear. My Oslo to Reykjavik pass was gone when I tried boarding. But it was there when I scanned through security control 😅

You are drunk Qobus. Havnestatskontroll hill or Isola by Kent is similar to Aponia. Not these two ladies

Last cuddle with these two for a week

It is a bit depressing getting "shaving your earlobes" years old.

Eamon got to run in the forest alone today because Annan pulled a muscle earlier this week. They don’t like to be apart for long, but the right weather got Eamon hooked and Annan got a huge treat as comfort while home alone. #dogsofbluesky #deerhound

Our website recently got an upgrade! It was initially built on WordPress in 2016 then after several hacks, was exported to HTML and put on @github.com's Pages in 2020. Now, it's been redesigned using Hugo and Claude Code. Let us know what you think!

One of the hardest part of being a speaker is coming up work sessions and what to talk about. Do fill this out, it helps _a lot_

Fun in the forest for the two deerhounds. #dogsofbluesky

Testing first Christmas beer. Then hiding the rest for the actual holiday.

Good thing I secured our daypasses for Tons of Rock Thursday 2026. Daypasses for Thursday are almost sold out now - a week later.

All right, line up your bets: Will I or will I not make it to Seattle in a week?

The boys took a break from chasing each other to playfighting.

My google (ok - Kagi) foo is failing me. I'm trying to understand what an ERDL file is and which program generates it. I understand that it is a report definition combined with Excel, but I can't remember seeing that file before. Of course, might be my memory failing me.

For å si det på en annen måte: - frimodig kristen som oppfordret til å slå ihjel president Biden. - frimodig kristen som aktivt jobbet for statskupp 6. januar 2021, - frimodig kristen som omtalte demokratene som «marxister» og «sosialister». Gang på gang omtalte han dem som fienden.

Fun in the forest today, eve though Eamon doesn’t quite understand that Annan after having been ill for 4 weeks doesn’t har as much stamina and needs more breaks.

I thought wife and son who stayed home today would decorate for Halloween. But apparently not. So very last minute decoration was up a minute before the first kids arrived

More integrity than all of big tech combined

Just signed my first new team member. Naturally a community member, because they are awesome.

Whoop, tickets to Thursday on Tons of Rock next year secured.

Sitting through a "teambuilding" session with so many BS bingo phrases being thrown about that I have filled at least 5 bingo cards the last 15 minutes.

Foggy late autumn morning

I love meetings that start at 10 and run through lunch. And of course then changes to 11 the same day (cantina opens at 11), with the comment "let's bring lunch". And ignore my request to postpone meeting until 11:30. Naturally the people requesting the meeting is delayed by 30 minutes anyways.
