Interesting Enough

The great thing is, I have learnt not to check my blog stats, I’m not bothered about podcast downloads and I sure as hell don’t care how many people follow me on social media.I too, have mastered the art of not checking blog stats, in part by not collecting them at all. Yet every time I do stumble over the figures, I am always surprised because I don’t think I am interesting enough.
#KnowYourWorth got you feeling down? Make sure you’re not comparing 🍎 to 🍊. Someone making $200k salary with 5 years of experience might sound like a lot but not when you’re living in NYC or SFO.
You’d have to pay me at least triple that to move to either of those places.

This video from Atlassian was shared internally at VMware a couple of weeks ago, and my initial comment was that minus the few references to their company specifically, this video was a great representation of the role of Technical Account Managers, generally. I was apparently not the only one who thought this, a little while later a posting appeared from their corporate account on LinkedIn with positive comments from representatives of:
My oldest just 🤮 so much and in so many places I seriously contemplated just burning my house down and starting over. ☣️
I’m kind of digging this XFL thing.
I work with some of the best people.

Project Nautilus
Tuesday, January 21, 2020
Introducing VMware Project Nautilus: Project Nautilus brings OCI container support to Fusion, enabling users to build, run and test apps for nearly any OS or cloud right from the comfort of your own Mac. With Project Nautilus, Fusion now has the ability to run Containers as well as VMs. Pull images from a remote repository like Docker Hub or Harbor, and run them in specially isolated 'Pod VMs'.This is built into the latest Tech Preview of VMware Fusion, which we've changed how we're releasing.
Lots of people, in the interest of privacy, don’t want to give their phone number to Twitter. They’ve made some mistakes with them.

Anyone who travels with an Apple Magic Mouse have a good carrying case option? I recently picked up a second one to keep in my bag, because using the trackpad for extended periods of time was bothering my wrist.

Resume Deletions
Monday, January 13, 2020
There are some things that just aren’t worth putting on your resume. This was the reminder that came to mind during replies to Owen Williams on the tweet machine. I once joined a company that announced on my first day that they had very little money left, and that all "unnecessary" spending (i.e, what I was hired to do) would be cut immediately. Learned a hard lesson to ask specifics about company finances during the interview.
Sorry, I misspoke, the Chiefs aren’t actually playing. Just running around Arrowhead.
