I hadn't busted out Postman for a couple of months and finally had time yesterday and today.

It just works and I enjoy using it. I mean, I like working with APIs in general, but Postman is my reliable tool for the job.

This virtual summit did give a little optimism for reducing the administrative pain.

That triumphant feeling of finally crafting the right query from a vendor's garbage ERD.

May the 4th be with you!

I tend to learn pretty well by just diving in to stuff, so I'm pleased to know of a few Node.js projects coming my way later in the summer.

I gave the clearest instructions not to upgrade the operating system, and he did it anyway. So, that forced a $400 software upgrade and it's *hurting* this old Mac mini to try and keep up.

Been a couple days, Mastodon. It's good to be back!

I'm still drowning trying to catch up on work and homework, but that'll change eventually...in a couple of...years.

We just had to get off our plane and wait for a different one.

Apparently they hit a bird on the way in that was small enough for them not to notice, but large enough to require maintenance.

Birdsite is fighting dirty over my loyalty!

Too many words...not enough coffee.

Tooting from Python is ending tonight on a high note.

"This next session will be dense and code-heavy."

YAY!

The vendor asked if I was on the birdsite, and I told them that it's and I'm only on Mastodon. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hold up - best conference ever.
I just won a headset!

Now I have to sit through these sessions when all I want to do is play with it. ๐Ÿ˜“

These general sessions are just alternating:
Hype!
Buzzwords!
Hype again!
Yay us!
*more Buzzwords!!!*

I just wanted to write a post and thank everyone who works on or with in any form. This site has become my go to social platform and for good reason.

1. No political influencing being shoved down my throat.

2. No bullshit product promotions or marketing.

3. People who know their craft and work to improve things for others and themselves.

4. No shareholders deciding what's best for us as users.

So thanks for the awesome place you all have provided and contribute to. ๐Ÿค—

Off to a conference in for a few days. May they be generous with the swag and useful information.

Your status on Skype for Business says you're out of the office. Your e-mail auto-reply also says this.

Yet...still...you're e-mailing me with questions. ๐Ÿคฆ

@benjamreynolds if you ever feel excluded or unwelcome here, let me know. I'm trying to make this the best possible space it can be ๐Ÿ‘
