Here’s the thing that you boners don’t understand about shit ass Crew seasons; THEY ARE FUN AS FUCK. I AM HERE FOR THIS Join me in an empty Nordecke as we sing Aerosmith songs and tell our spouses we’re on our way home but don’t mean it. Live forever. Don’t be a coward.

Please enjoy one minute of corgis in the snow to cleanse your social media timeline.

I've reached my lifetime quota for "interesting times." Give me bland times. Boring times. Normie times, one could even say. Times that are both dull and unexciting. Load me up with times that feel stale and uninspiring. That's the good stuff right there.

That is ... a lot of programmers. #codemash

Thanks @cassandra.bsky.social! And thanks to everyone who joined us last night for some drinks, chats, and karaoke! We'll see you all at @scottchacon.com's talk on Thursday and at the Waterpark party! #CodeMash

I just watched one of the GitHub cofounders karaoke “99 Luftballons” in German in a villa at the Kalahari in Sandusky, Ohio. This might be peak #CodeMash. 🤖🤓🎶

Not “I Want Candy” playing in the dispensary while the budtender is packing up my gummies. 🍃🍬

Week one is a wrap and I didn’t hear the phrase “drinking from the firehose” once! ☺️ Usually, that’s all I hear when starting a new role. I’m getting up to speed quicker because no one is pressuring me or making me feel stupid because I don’t know everything on day one. It’s so refreshing!

After a long job search, I'm excited to announce that I've joined Stack Overflow as a Community Delivery Manager! I'm so excited to work for a company whose whole focus is community and learning!

🤖🧱 In case you missed it, The @codemash.bsky.social Call for Sponsors is open! We know we can't have the event without your support so are enhancing the sponsorship experience and offering new options. Check out the sponsor prospectus. #CodeMash events.codemash.org/2026CodeMash...

Let's get fired up for #HellIsReal with a vintage martial arts movie trailer. Be massive my friends. #Crew96 | #NorOnTour | #VamosColumbus

Tell me you don't understand what a fucking fanbase without telling me you don't understand #appletv #mls. They are going back to the "Epic game in Cleveland" where we lost to miami. Whoever made this decision, deserves to be fired tonight. TONIGHT. #Crew96

I RSVP'd to attend the IIBA Columbus recruiter panel next week. They responded by asking me to be on the panel! 😁 If you're looking for for a new role, join us June 18 & bring your job search questions. #MidwestTech #ColumbusTech #SpeakerLife #TechCommunity columbusoh.iiba.org/events/june-...

I have two interviews today, and felt the same mix of excitement and nerves that I get before giving a talk. I put on my Elder Millennial Girlypop playlist, and danced around and sang while getting ready like I would before a talk. Nerves gone! Energy up. Highly recommend. #UnhingedJobSearchTip

An old hippie with long hair and a Hawaiian shirt just drove past my house in a blue Tesla with an “Anti Elon Club” magnet on it. I love my little hippie neighborhood. 😂 #Clintonville

On the first day of Pride Month the algorithm dieties gave me Lady Gaga performing “Abracadabra” at a Rocky Horror dinner party while Wednesday Addams looks on in annoyance. 🌈💃🏳️‍🌈

I repeat It had better be chaos if Crew wants to get points out of this

Less than two weeks left to get your submissions in! sessionize.com/momentum-2025

It’s Conference Day! Today is the OhioX Ohio Tech Summit, an event focusing on Ohio’s innovation around AI, cybersecurity, and more. If you’re here, let’s meet up! #OhioTechSummit #WomenInTech #TechLifeColumbus #TechCommunity #OhioTech

Kicking off #StirTrek with @tdesseyn.bsky.social’s LinkedIn and Bluesky recruiting & job search session. While platforms come and go, social media continues to be one of our most powerful job search tools. #ColumbusTech #TechLifeColumbus #RecruiterInsights

The TechLife Columbus Spring Fling was a great; and I caught up with so many people! After traveling for a few years, it’s so good to be back in my home tech community and see that it’s still going strong! See y’all tomorrow at Stir Trek!

I helped launch a brand new product today with a badass group of Ruby engineers. Our hope is to create a lot more independent entrepreneurs through collaborative commerce. Distribution only through ads is obsolete. This was one of my favorite things I built. And it's free. www.offerlab.com

Finally got in for a long-overdue hair appointment today. She’s back!!! 👩🏽‍💻🌈🦄🤩

My favorite Super Bowl tradition is people complaining about halftime shows as they age. I remember our parents & grandparents complaining about Aerosmith + Britney Spears in 2001 and saying Gaga was “too much/too queer” in 2017. When did Millennials & Gen-X become the new boomers?

A little British Corgi for @cassandra.bsky.social

Today I interviewed several people, signed up for some tech events, scheduled a couple coffees, located a great pool of junior-level candidates, and discussed a couple potential recruiting contracts. It’s good to be back! 👩🏽‍💻🙌

Keep growing @bsky.app

Whether you love or hate the ⏰ app, it’s dystopian to see this type of message when opening any communication platform. So much for the freedom of expression (i.e. freedom of religion and speech) that we codified as the first amendment to our Constitution. 😢

Me at 6pm: I’m totally going in the hot tub after the teardown and final meeting are done. Me the moment I’m back in my room: Changing clothes and walking all the way there sounds like way too much work. That means it was an amazing week at @codemash.bsky.social! See y’all next year! 🤖

Fantastic group of folks for dinner tonight at CodeMash!

I’ve been on my feet talking to people for 15 hours and have to be up in 5 hours. But I’m still too wound up to sleep. 😅 #ExtrovertProblems #CodeMash

Human beings understand this!

The calm before the @codemash.bsky.social storm. 👩🏽‍💻🤖👙🤓 #CodeMash

📣 After a five year journey in DevRel, I'm back to recruiting and working for myself! Because some things never change, the first role I'm hiring is a mid-senior .NET developer with React experience. It's full-time in Columbus, OH with a hybrid schedule. If you want to learn more, reach out!

The best part of having corgis is getting to walk behind them. 🍑 #KatieCorgiAndPippin

Reminder to join the CodeMash Discord to chat with fellow attendees, get updates, and share your love for all things tech. 👉 buff.ly/419xLVG Let’s keep the conversation going! 🚀 #CodeMash #DeveloperCommunity #JoinUs #MidwestTech

Oh, this entire thread. I'm going to repost each segment because it's so necessary. Humanities (the liberal arts, all those things that don't fit under the STEM umbrella, and are actually about human beings) are the necessary lubricant for human life to continue. NOT CompSci.

We’re painting the living room this weekend and this is Step 0. 🤓 #IYKYK

Looking forward to presenting my Introduction to Accessibility talk at Code Mash 2025! #accessibility #CodeMash2025

We look forward to seeing it! #CodeMash #DeveloperCommunity

We're excited to sponsor KidzMash as part of #CodeMash! Be sure to check out the conference here: @codemash.bsky.social 🎉 @ardalis.com will be presenting a session on cross-cutting concerns! Sadukie will also be there, checking in on speakers and sessions! Hope to see you there!

My life is weird. Today I’m giving my talk on ADHD and productivity to a former employer’s ERG. One of their people saw me give that talk at a conference and invited me! 😀

In a CodeMash planning meeting: Brian: Does anyone have any more questions for Tori? Me, knowing Tori just got the cutest doggo: Can we see your puppy? #professional #priorities

🏨 Part of what makes #CodeMash so great is staying onsite with all the other attendees. The hotel room block fills up quickly and we only have about 29 rooms left. If you've been dragging your feet on registering, this is your sign to do that today! #DeveloperCommunity #MidwestTech

Want to learn how to build an 8-bit computer on a breadboard?? I will be teaching a special 2-hour hands-on workshop on exactly that at CODEMASH 2025!!

#CodeMash has entered the Bluesky chat! Follow us on here and come hang out with us in January!

I’m having a good time talking with potential #CodeMash sponsors. Working sponsor booths & running the board game room taught me both how to get value from a booth and what attendees want from sponsors. As sponsors ask questions about the event, I’m passing my tips and tricks on to them. 🥳

Do you know Techorama in Netherlands and Belgium? Very cool too! The cfp for Belgium is open now: sessionize.com/techorama-20...

Mine are CodeMash, KCDC, Build Stuff, and WeAreDevelopers because they all have smart, welcoming, fun vibes. You can tell they’re driven by and for the #DeveloperCommunity. What are your favorites? Why?
