New acquisition for my office.
I moved out of my cube today for a new office slightly closer to campus. And while I love my new office – the natural light is wonderful – I’m a little sad to see the old cube go. It’s amazing how a place can become so meaningful over time. Even a simple beige cube.
Saw this article in the NY Times about the Southern Baptist Convention kicking out a megachurch for ordaining women. We are ELCA Lutherans and my children have always had a woman as a pastor. So here’s a shoutout to Pastor Karen, Pastor Ginger and Pastor Joanna. I’m grateful that you have been able to be a positive presence for our family and thankful that the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America allows you to serve as you are called.
Havard Business Review with an interesting (academic) take about how developers should view the Apple Vision Pro:
Developers looking to profit off the platform Apple has created would do well to focus on applications that provide users with hard-to-access contextual information at just the right level of detail.
Got to work. Found out I grabbed the wrong laptop. Sigh.
Ryan’s first club tournament was challenging. They played against really strong (older) competition and Ryan took a beating in goal. But he hung in there and finished all five games.
A special thanks to all the parents from our team and other teams who were encouraging and supportive. A kind word really does mean a lot.
Also, even though they didn’t win a game, they have the coolest uniforms. Got to count for something, right.
Finally got a chance to watch the keynote and read the reactions of people who’ve tried the new Apple Vision Pro headset. Going into WWDC, I didn’t know if Apple could pull off the technology and I had no idea why I would use one. After reading everything, it sounds like they aced the tech, but I still don’t know why I’d use one.
I’m tired. But also, I can’t sleep. Sigh.
30 years ago, Chris and I were in the same orientation group at USC. This year, our kids are at the same orientation. Small world.
