It’s Wild­card Wednes­day! It’s a mag­i­cal day when any­thing can show up here. This week, it’s just a video of what my dogs do when I start warm­ing up my voice at home. It can be a lit­tle dis­heart­en­ing, par­tic­u­lar­ly… Read moremusi­cal dogs

It’s Test­ing Tues­day! Let’s talk soft­ware test­ing! To start, soft­ware test­ing is find­ing weak­ness­es in soft­ware that, when fixed, make it a bet­ter prod­uct. Soft­ware testers don’t break soft­ware, they expose how it’s already bro­ken. It is rather fun to… Read morejob and train­ing

I’ve been think­ing a lot about the way we inter­act with oth­ers and how we per­ceive our­selves as inter­act­ing with oth­ers. I, per­son­al­ly, think that I am nor­mal­ly charm­ing, wit­ty, and engag­ing, par­tic­u­lar­ly when I have a full night of… Read morecon­ver­sa­tion and emo­tion

One of the best things I saw this week was Jer­ry Sein­feld and Pres­i­dent Oba­ma in Come­di­ans in Cars Get­ting Cof­fee. Both of these men are per­son­able, and I enjoyed their con­ver­sa­tion. Hav­ing Oba­ma open up about what it means… Read moreweek­ly roundup — Jan­u­ary 15th

I start­ed my week by read­ing an arti­cle in Bloomberg about Dis­ney’s princess busi­ness switch­ing from Mat­tel to Has­bro. Mat­tel had a series of mis­steps with its treat­ment of Dis­ney princess prod­ucts, and Dis­ney final­ly took its busi­ness else­where. Last… Read moreweek­ly roundup — Jan­u­ary 8th

Wel­come to my first week­ly roundup, where I write about things I’ve read, games I’ve played, and things I’ve been think­ing about that don’t mer­it their own blog posts. I’ve read a few inter­est­ing arti­cles this week. I dis­cov­ered the… Read moreweek­ly roundup — first ever!
