Ha, I have a computer programming degree! I'm a scrum master. I work remote and run everyday over lunch!

What a coincidence. I need to do a sharing on the Scrum framework later. Any particular thing that you think I should highlight? TIA

Cool, this is great! The only thing I’d adjust is the word “intensely” the goal of Scrum and sprints is to work at a sustainable pace to not burn out. I’d replace that work with “focused” as a scrum master should try to reduce work in progress (wip) for their team members! Hope all goes well!

2019 - watching the Toronto Raptors during their finals run

Yeah, as you can tell I'm quite young :)

Awesome. Was a great year. I like the direction they are going. Hopefully we will get another deep playoff run in a couple years.

@gnilma is also a Raptors fan and probably @kr though I have never asked him.

Kawhi was a monster in that series against the Bucks. I won't forget that exclamation mark dunk on Giannis in the 4th quarter of game 6. That year and that run was pretty awesome!

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @abcxyz 20 Mar

I remember that dunk! Probably his 2nd-best highlight of the entire run. First place goes to his game 7 shot against the 76ers of course!

2019 seems like it was just 1 or 2 years ago. Crazy that it's been almost 5 years.

Are the Raptors doing well this season?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @abcxyz 23 Mar

Not really. 12th place in the East. It's unfortunate, but the new players need to build some chemistry with each other so that they can start winning more in the next few years.

cryotosensei:

Awesome. I’m not zapping any entry there, but ofc I will honour your work here haha. Why do you like this photo so much? #472588

I like everything about this picture. I like the elephants because they represent wisdom, divine knowledge and royal power. I like the incense burner because it represents the transformation of matter. The curtain with the tarot cards because they are used as a spiritual compass, guiding the person, indicating what is best and which paths to follow. And finally bitcoin, which represents personal sovereignty in a world controlled by elites.

I think this doesn't need any explanation for why I still keep it. The beer bottle and glass are self sufficient.

However this has a lot to do with my love life, now married with the same girl who is in the picture.

Of course that's a cropped image.

Occassionally!! But she has changed a lot after the pregnancy and she's literally become a Hindu devout. She has even left eating garlics and onions. She says that she can't stand the taste and smell of these things. I asked the doctor who happens to be my close friend, said that these changes come up when with pregnancy. Nothing to be worried 💁

I thought you said that you are going to be a father but wasn’t sure when you announced your travel-round-the-world plan. Erm how are you going to reconcile travelling with baby-raising?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Coinsreporter 23 Mar

Well that's one of the great advantages of living in a combined family. I have my mother, father, brother, and most probably his wife by next year, a sister, her husband and a great uncle who is 80 years old but he is fit. I hope you now have the answer.

Oldest pic on my phone is my son playing tball when he was 5. So that would be 8 years ago.

Not going to post it but thought I would share what it was.

Does your Prince still pay tball?

No no he is much too old for Tball now but my daughter plays In fact I just signed her up for this summer's season yesterday. My son does taekwondo. He is training for his black belt right now. Probably be at least another year before he is ready to test for it.

It must be bittersweet watching your girl play Tball. Like she’s stepping into her brother’s shoes

I love it. I was thinking about coaching her this year but they are still a bit too small for me to coach. I have a lot of patience for my kids but maybe not a group of 12 kids. I used to play baseball when I was a kid and teen and stopped around 18. At that point I coached baseball with my dad for a few years (he was coach and I was assistant coach) and I really enjoyed it but we were coaching older kids (12 and 13). I am not sure how well I would do coaching 5 and 6 year olds.

I’m sure you are applying some of the things you learnt then on SN! Haha

Btw are you guys applying some sort of Agile methodologies for the development of SN? Here’s what I learnt about scrum recently

10 sats \ 0 replies \ @k00b 23 Mar

Yep everything we do teaches us something usually and it’s what makes all of our contributions useful because we all have done different things.

We don’t do scrum. I’m pretty anti-process usually, but I’ve heard scrum works well for certain teams. We mostly chat about stuff and work on what we want!

The reason I'm still keeping this wallpaper is obvious - it's motivational + I'm a beach lover so this makes two rabbits with a single bullet.

Looking back it appears this is the first photo I took after flashing the custom ROM to my phone. It's from 2019 according to the original filename and EXIF data. I don't necessarily keep it for any particular reason, I just don't delete pictures! I don't usually take many pictures with my phone as I've got an actual camera, but I was on a plane trip and thought this looked like a nice shot.

20 sats \ 1 reply \ @cryotosensei OP 23 Mar

It is! Why are you stirring my wanderlust? Haha

Do you take your camera with you everywhere you go?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @astro_penguin 23 Mar

I'm not much of a traveler in most cases, but I've been fortunate to get around and see some interesting places, sometimes while on business trips.

I do carry a camera around a lot! My main camera is pretty compact and light, and I've gotten into the habit of carrying it anytime I'm walking around outside or even when I'm driving. I never know when I'll see something I like, and you can't come back the next day because the picture you wanted is often different then. Even though phone cameras are getting very good, they still don't provide the control and quality you can get with a good camera. I also dislike the processing most of them do in the background.

The oldest one that doesn't contain family appears to be this one of a beer menu in 2013 when I was visiting Evanston, IL for business. Have no idea what the place was, or which one I ordered (I've tried a good 2/3 of the ones listed for sure). https://i.imgur.com/KVLsHY8.png
