The NES adaptor gives me flashbacks to my childhood. PS1 and PS2 mods had the same vibe. What a great era.

Are they fully blind or can they see some things? There is a new line of thought called Cortical Visual Impairment. Its important to know the difference. Regardless, I find that holding my Childs hand is without a doubt the most reassuring thing I can give her in an unknown place. Your son will find his way, with love. Praying for your family.

When I was 11, I had the incredible opportunity to join him in the recording booth during one of his voice-overs for Bell South. I stuttered badly at the time, but he was incredibly kind and understanding. He took 30 minutes out of his day to sit with a kid he didn't even know and talk about the art of speech—it was life-changing. I’ll never forget that day.

A few months later, we received two large 3x3' posters in the mail. Blown-up photos of us working together that day. In the lower right-hand corner of each, he had signed them, "May the force be with you! JEJ / To my friend, Best Wishes, JEJ (AKA Mustafa)."

What an awesome guy. I just pulled those pictures out, and 29 years later, I’m still filled with awe and immense gratitude.

Good to see windows XP still doing its job in the electrical control room!

PowerShell was (and still is) the go to for me in any M$FT shop. People like to group VBA and PowerShell together but I am amazed by the vibrancy of the PowerShell community and the deep history it holds. PowerShell releases are frequent and I'm excited about what I continue to see and hear being developed.

This brings me right back to June of 2009, as the markets started to spoil and the derivative markets fells to shambles. A few hapless souls in Baltimore would be tasked with manning 2 standing 12 hour shifts for as many weeks as it would take to properly reconcile what could only be described as a tsunami of unreconciled data for a single large custody player in the sub-prime markets. It took about 4 months, and went through several phases of rebalance but we got it done. As I look across the landscape of LLM, the word "context" screams back at me. I think the processing power involved to make all the poor choices necessary to find the right choices and wonder how that could've been done without a teams of people thinking about the same problem from many perspectives.
