A little late but finally finished Season 17 of #GreysAnatomy (aka the 2020 COVID Season)
Been watching since Season 3, what feels like multiples lifetimes ago! One of my favorite shows ever, one that has seen me grow from a teenager and into now a grown adult and family man.
Something’s to look forward tod to with extreme excitement: the new trailer for the final installment of the #MissionImpossible saga has dropped!
My wife is watching #HowIMetYourMother for the very first time. It serves as a rewatch for me. But damn Subway Wars might be one of the all-time best episodes of the whole show!
I’m not one to run away from hardship and try to escape my problems, but with the shit that’s been going on with my family these past few months it’s hard not too think that living abroad would make certain things easier…
🎶 📚 Finished reading “Walking Disaster” a few days ago, the autobiography/memoir by Sum 41 founder Deryck Whibley. As a huge Sum 41 and pop punk fan, this was great and revealed a lot of things I had never heard of before. Highly recommend it for likeminded fans! #BookThreads
Day 1-3 of a 4-day weekend spent ailing from food poisoning while the baby is recovering from something else too
🏀 Incredible night at my @ParisBasketball @Euroleague game against Partizan Belgrade.
7000 people with about 2000+ Serbian visitors that made themselves at home.
No incidents but a tense atmosphere all game long… and we got away with another win, making it 5W-3L in our first #Euroleague campaign
Getting ready to say goodbye to Foursquare, an app I’ve used almost daily since its earlier form back in 2009 between my time studying and working and living in the UK, then in San Francisco, Paris, and my native French Riviera. Back then I used to check-in to places I visited from the mobile browser of my Nokia blackberry knockoff (E63) (2009-2011), then an Android phone (2011-2013), and finally from the dedicated iPhone apps (2013+). During that time the Foursquare app (and later Swarm) has almost always been on my phone’s Home Screen.
I’m feeling genuinely sad about this, truly the end of an era for a formative time in my life, the late 2000’s-early 2010s “SoLoMo” (Social Local Mobile) apps.
4SQ has been invaluable, not just for memorizing/logging/remembering places I’ve been to, but also to discover new places.
I traveled the world by myself for most of 2017, but Foursquare was my guide to discover new favorites while visiting cities all around Asia or America for the very first time. The amount of time I’ve spent on this app is immeasurable and I have a hard time wondering how I’ll get by the next time I explore a new city in the world.
As I start looking at substitutes, it seems that Superlocal could be an option. Otherwise North.Industries which I need to look into. But I need to do a lot more research!
Well the corporate team at Intuit seems just like one might have guessed:
“I got a note from (…) the chief communications officer at Intuit, who called the line of questioning and my tone “inappropriate,” “egregious,” and “disappointing” and demanded that we delete that entire section of the recording. I mean, literally — he wrote a long email that ended with “at the very least the end portion of your interview should be deleted.We don’t do that here at The Verge.”
