I regret not making portraits of all the people I met at XOXO. Next year I’ll make a point of doing that.

New friends from #xoxofest

I had such an amazing time at #xoxofest, but I'm certainly feeling a little overwhelmed by everything. I think this is the push I've needed to take up writing my thoughts down as a way to work through things.

I really need to parallelize my reverse geocoding script.

I’ve got the top score in Q*bert!

I tried out an electric scooter today and, as silly as I felt I looked, it was a fun and easy way to get around.

Nothing like a fundamental part of your app breaking without a clear reason why.

It could be Mojave’s AppleEvent restrictions, different scripting definitions between versions, or a Python tool that isn’t generating output correctly.

Also, updating Swift dependancies is still kind of annoying if you haven't touched a project in a couple months.

Decided I should spend some time working on the project I listed on my XOXO profile. The code has had a long enough nap.

Waiting for the sun to move a shadow a few inches is why I took up studio photography. I don’t think the Japanese Gardens would be thrilled if I brought in strobes, however.

Just got lightly told off by a security guard for poking around a film set.

I’d pretty much forgotten how annoying perspective correction is on a view camera.

I was amazed and slightly confused that my restaurant bill was an integer until I remembered Oregon doesn’t have sales tax.

I think I might be beta testing too many Mastodon clients. I checked two different apps before realizing they show the same data.

I’m in Portland… stuck on a train waiting for another train to pass.

The train to Portland is off! Im looking forward to seeing everyone at XOXO. https://mastodon.emory.coffee/media/PmcNJk-FLRLukbCUqEE

This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever done as a photographer. https://mastodon.emory.coffee/media/Cg2Ph3W8XuMKNyo94mw

Amtrak: The train for Portland doesn't leave until 10

Me: 🤨

Amtrak: Your train doesn't leave until 10 _PM_

Me: 😶
