What Are You Doing Right Now
-
It is like 64 and sunny here
-
Trying to learn this Mac OSX thing. I've not seen a Mac to any real degree since 10.4!! I am seriously out of my depth. You really forget the staggering learning curve on these devices. Nothing is intuitive at all.
-
Got HomeBrew installed and working. That's pretty nice. A lot like Chocolatey in the Windows world.
I'm pretty excited about being in a Windows-free environment. Quite a change of pace. UNIX everywhere, all the time.
-
Making myself dive right into the Mac world. Using Mac Mail now, too. Has to be better than the native GMail web interface. That's my least favourite email interface ever.

God morning to all.
Drinking coffee now. -
It is late on the east coast already! Man it takes a while to get used to this Pacific time thing.
-

Not here long enough to get used to it. Only two weeks. Then eastern, then central, then European time. This is going to be rough.

Sounds like a fun day - which brings me to a question... do you and @Dominica have iPhones and use Facetime? Just curious if you use video chat to communicate / see the family while you are away like you are currently... I know I remember hearing you and @Minion-Queen speak if using Skype often.. -
Just got back to the hotel and now I have a computer to use here too, so I am not so completely out of touch anymore.

We are iPhone / iPad people in general. Each of the kids has their own iPad, I have one too and both Dominica and I have iPhones. And now I have a Mac, I believe that there is a way to Facetime from that too.

So day one is done and I must say, one of the best first days ever. This is a seriously cool place to work. Amazing people, really great corporate mission, good technology, a serious effort being taken to move on to amazing technology (a key reason why I've been brought on).... I am feeling really good about the move here. And most importantly, it is a decision that we made for the family and Change.org appreciates that and wanted me because I was doing things for my family instead of in spite of that.
