fredcCan you teach this old dog new tricks.
(Browsing job listings in my field is depressing.)
Since it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks, how about older tricks instead. This old coder (ie, moi) is thinking of learning an older language, COBOL. Now, where to find some learning materials…

I hate it when politicians rationalize not supporting same sex marriage by falling back on “Well, the Family Code doesn’t allow it.”
We know it’s a barrier. And so we need legitimate political support to change the system to respect LGBT rights. The code isn’t the Constitution!
If the law does not allow it, then change it. It is the job of a legislator, after all: to create new or to amend existing laws to fill the needs of the present.

I was sad to lose five books previously. Imagine giving up all of them and starting to collect from scratch.
Got bored at home tonight and figured I’d tinker around with the iphone. Was pleasantly surprised to find some old input methods available as alternative third party keyboards! pic.twitter.com/a2NgCYcoUU

So Snow White (2025) was a mess IMHO.
It couldn’t make up its mind whether to be faithful to the original material or try something new and different. It felt very chop seuy.
And Gal Gadot as the villain… Very fitting. 🤪
Ok then. I’m skipping watching this in the cinema.
What’s the point of blogging?
I am backing up my social media posts on my website. Since I am the site's primary audience, I should write posts as a note to myself in the future.
I need more comic book, pop culture and wrestling accounts to follow here on bluesky. Any recommendations?
