Spent probably 2 hours troubleshooting what ended up being an ethernet cable that somehow came loose. Finally I thought to check the cord physically and as soon as I touched it, it fell out. Unbelievable.

the most common piece of advice i give, bc it’s one of the few that i’m comfortable giving to a lot of people at once, is to get a CCNA some folks accuse me of preaching this bc i simp for cisco. lol. if you’ve ever talked to me in depth abt networking u know thats not true (1/6)

WOW!!!!!!!

If you have a White Sox fan in your life, pick up the 2005 SABR book that came out earlier this year. sabr.org/latest/sabr-.... Co-edited by @ericconrad.com and myself. Lots of new research/content was created for this. Let them re-live a happier time cause it’s going to be a while.

Something I’m happy to do again this year. Really recommend you to do something good and maybe you’ll end up with @chrissanders88.bsky.social golden ticket.

I know some folks will aim to do some learning in the new year. The SC-900 book I co-wrote is in this humble bundle www.humblebundle.com/books/micros.... Lots of good cert prep stuff in here.

Mulligan has been drinking out of the people water all afternoon and we just found out

I had a serendipitous run-in with @markmorow.com today, truly a blessed day

New @SoxMachine.com Video presented by Ankin Law jimcallis.bsky.social joined the podcast to talk about the Arizona Fall League. He shared why White Sox prospect Braden Montgomery was #2 on his Top 30 AFL Prospect list. Watch on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkJT...

That Ortiz and Clase reportedly received the EXACT same dollar amount from fixers — in 2025! — as Shoeless Joe Jackson and Lefty Williams did in 1919 is … completely absurd. And another reason why player salaries have very little to do with why these gambling scandals happen.

17th inning you gotta drink the grossest beer from the back of the fridge. A cucumber stout. A watermelon abomination.

20 years ago today, the White Sox completed their World Series sweep of the Astros. This game recap, and many more memories from this season are in the SABR book released earlier this year sabr.org/latest/sabr-....

These between-pitch ads are absolutely brutal. In the 9th inning of Game 7?!?!?

In addition to all the grandmas and normies at No Kings I was very happy to see a lot of Columbus' venerable benign weirdos. Bagpipes guy. One of those dudes with hundreds of action figures glued to his 1994 Saturn SL3. Those kinds of folks. Weirdos are an important part of the municipal fabric.

Pardon my subpar photography, but: I think someone was inspired by last night.
