I am a leader in the IT tech industry and passionate ballroom dancer outside the office. I also enjoy amateur photography. All views expressed are mine only.

Recently I've gotten into ₿itcoin and other forms of crypto, which is why I'm here on Nostr :)

Hermes is now connected to my remote VScode tunnel. Development with my AI companion is completely remote and avoids pesky disconnects due to corp VPN. #development #ai #vscode #hermes

I raise an eyebrow when an exec uses statements like "you should know by now" and "once again..." in a company-wide forum.

IMHO, the art of a good leader is to not express personal frustration when course correcting your employees. #corp #management

Oh and my other non-favorite... if you start any statement with "You need to..." I'll look at you with the following expression: https://media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExZnFrbDN4djBoZGoyeXB5ZXJpd3BuMWdiMDZlcTd2Zm5nYTRkb2g1dCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/Mo8K1YCMyOWIGpcflZ/giphy....

Flight out of London is 3.5 hours late. Considering the ATC debacle a few days ago, I’ll take it. On the plus side, VA’s club house is awesome. #travel

Sour puss! Assume the cloud is gone or unreachable. You're offline. Is there a better device option? What do you keep that you can't live without? Have you every search "SHTF USB plan" online? Lots of...

lol, I’d use a physical device to store bitcoin keys. If the cloud’s gone then I’m printing out some essentials and storing it in a lead-lined box.

But I’m up for a challenge, I have a few 16gb drives, let’s see what I can get on one.

I'm with you on the physical copies part. A small USB backup of the essentials is good, but at some point you need a non-digital copy. But paper...? Down the rabbit hole we go...

16gb won't fit the chain. even pruned, flash drive i/o usually kills bitcoind. better to throw tails on there for an offline signing environment. focus on the seed, not the box.

#Challenge - You have a single 16GB offline storage device (USB drive, SD card, MicroSD) to backup and digitally save all your most important files, tools, memories, etc. You don't know what device or...

Nothing important, these inexpensive storage media devices aren’t good for any long term storage. Honestly, the cloud is better bet.

If we’re talking apocalypse, then a few photos of loved ones and encryption keys in the event that the chain survives.

Sour puss! Assume the cloud is gone or unreachable. You're offline. Is there a better device option? What do you keep that you can't live without? Have you every search "SHTF USB plan" online? Lots of folks trying to figure it out... Also - how are you my friend? All well? Ping me off-nostr to catc...

If you fire up the flash drive once every few years and re-write everything, it will recharge all those little capacitors. I won't be surprised if a consumer flash device can live longer than a human under that maintainance regime. If routine maintainence isn't an option, then yes, you're 100% righ...
