Opening 8 months ahead of schedule, the West Rail Line is also on budget.
Now that’s not something you see everyday! I live west of downtown Denver and I’m excited to have a public transit option available to me soon.

I’ve been wanting to write about good vs. bad interviews for a while now. My recent interview for the WP Engine blog gives me a good positive example to point to – that probably puts this post in a better light than a frustrated rant would. 🙂 I’ve participated in written, remote (audio and video)…

An interview with me about WordPress’s maturity is up on the WP Engine blog. It’s a bit of a long read (~4500 words), but Austin did a great job asking good questions and follow-ups. I quite enjoyed the discussion and I hope you’ll find it interesting.

I’m a big fan of Pinboard (and of backups).

This looks awesome! I just learned about this because my mom ordered a set for my daughter’s 4th birthday. We need more women in engineering.

Subject: Tests lead to more tests
Hi Everyone– Last Wednesday I underwent a PET scan so that they could look for cancer that might have spread to other parts of my body. So far the results are inconclusive, but they’ve identified an area of my liver, areas in both lungs and an area in my pelvis that they want to biopsy…

All this cheap cloud storage is awesome for backups, but man does it take a long time to get it all there.
