The only thing missing in my life is a #cat.
"Among the triple vaccinated, 8-9% of people report long COVID (at least 4 weeks) after their first infection; 5-6% are reporting activity-limiting symptoms."
And that's why I continue to mask in public and avoid indoors dining. The odds of my number coming up in the long COVID lottery are too high.

Finished #StarTrek Discovery S4 and, hoo boy, what a stinker. I love the characters and actors. And I loved the episodes Jonathan Frakes directs. But overall the writing was terrible.
Did they, like, steal all the good writers for Strange New Worlds?
Here’s my #introduction post. I’m Pedro, a Spaniard living in #berlin, where I work as a software engineer at Shopify. I spend my days writing #typescript, #javascript, and #ruby, and I’m learning #rustlang. I’m also an #opensource advocate.
Once we're done with Matt Damon, can we do Jimmy Fallon next?

Back in March, the Austin City Council was considering a resolution to adopt #cryptocurrency. I blogged about it then:

Fortunately, due to community pressure, the final action only called for a study. That study can now report what we skeptics cited as theoretical risk has come to pass.
Say hello to Franklin.
He came home Monday, had a total panic freakout, and went into hiding. Last night I tried to see if he'd accept some head scritches, a switch flipped, and now he's a total cuddle cat. #cats
Last night, at the Jorge Caballero #ClassicalGuitar concert, sponsored by @AustinClassical@twitter.com

It's just under 48 hours until we get to bring our new kitty friend home. The shelter picked him up as a stray, so there is a hold in case somebody comes to claim him. We'll be happy to have him, but even happier if he has people who find him. #cats
I'm concerned that proposals to eliminate password auth will end up locking people into a phone ecosystem. It's bad enough to get your messages out of iCloud if you decide to switch your phone to a different stack. Getting logged out of auth services would be even worse. #auth #security

Say hello to Grey Cat (shelter name).
He crawled into my lap, licked my hand, and asked to come home. How was I to say no?
We pick him up from @austinanimals@twitter.com Monday afternoon.
There are some very sweet kitties there and I'm heartbroken I can't take them all. #cats

How many people have to lose their shirts before we realize that crypto isn’t a solution to any of our problems?
Here’s my @nytopinion@twitter.com column on the constantly crashing, broken-casino grift of web3. In which I chat with @molly0xFFF@twitter.com of @web3isgreat@twitter.com

Today, I got text spam from the DCCC.
1. Damn them to hell for treating this crisis as a fundraising opp.
2. The DCCC supports anti-abortion candidates like Cuellar! Sleazeballs!
3. My carrier marked it as spam and trashed it, so ha ha assholes.
Voted most likely to be eaten by a grue.
