  1. As a Colorado resident, I am quite gruntled. All these Springs MAGAts will certainly love the opportunity to move to Alabama.
  2. The last photo may or may not document my closest brush with death. I decided to hit a pretty technical loop outside Boulder, CO, clearly forgetting that I’ve been on my gravel bike all summer. My legs forgot what 15% grade singletrack climbs feel like. About 75% through the ride, after yet another “fuck this” uphill effort, I took a break. Sat it in the shade, had a snack, took my headphones off, and just enjoyed the quiet. That’s when I heard something loud, and close. I didn’t see what it was, but my brain immediately screamed “Fucking Bear”. Sounded like every Bear noise I’ve ever heard on TV or Movies. As if that wasn’t bad enough, I’d brought my larger hydration pack that morning…and forgot to transfer my bear spray. I considered 3 options: Head back down the trail toward the noise hoping I could move fast enough, keep climbing and hope I got out of range quickly, shit myself and accept fate. I chose option two, nearly coughed up a lung doing it. Screw +15% climbs and screw whatever animal made that noise.
  3. Bumping this thread to share my job search journey. TL;DR - AI was key. In April of last year, I left my employer of 13 years. The company had gone through six presidents in six years and was in the middle of its third major reorg. I was leading inorganic product development, a role I loved, when I was informed that the function would be shut down. They offered me another leadership role, but I knew it was time. My passion was gone. I negotiated a severance package which, along with unemployment, covered my expenses for 2024. I didn’t hate not working, but since I failed to win the lottery, I started my job search in January 2025. I knew it could take 7–9 months at my level, but I felt pretty confident. I had a strong track record: multiple promotions, consistent results, and a degree from a reputable school. I assumed I’d do just fine. I applied for about 15–18 roles from January to March and received no interest. That was concerning. That’s when I came back to this thread and saw the above advice about resume keyword optimization. I’m a bit of a tech laggard, but it made sense, so I gave it a shot. Once I started utilizing it, more and more applications for it emerged. I started using AI to: • Tailor resumes with role-specific keywords • Rewrite resume bullets • Draft custom cover letters • Research companies and industries • Prepare for interviews It was a game changer. Everything I produced was sharper and better informed, and it all took a fraction of the time. Over the next 15–18 applications, I got four interview requests. Today, I was extended an offer for a role I’m genuinely excited about. Just wanted to bump this thread to thank the folks who shared their advice and to share some of my own. @choripan I owe you some drinks if you are ever in Denver
  4. Next up for PSU is Kentucky. No rest for the wicked.
  5. Juan Ayuso leaving UAE at seasons end. Giro drama must have been immense.
  6. 13-0 Utes. UCLA's 3 man d-line looks huge. Unfortunately, they are trying to chase around a Kyler Murray clone tonight.
  7. @Sbbruin pre-season UCLA preview has me intrigued. Let's see what they have for the Utes.
  8. Probably, but they are replacing both coordinators, starting a brand new QB, and replacing 14 players lost to the nfl draft. I suspect they were counting on some ramp up time.
  9. PSU looked just as good as last year. Lost All American Mruzik due to graduation and replaced her with All American Kennedy Martin from Florida.
  10. When Landon, Tim, and Clint lost WC qualifying matches to Costa Rica, T&T, Guatemala, and Honduras what was the root cause? Talent wasn't an issue then either.
  11. Barring a crash, certainly hard to envision anyone but Jonas winning. Still interested to see what Juan Ayuso and Joao Almedia can do to make it difficult. Also, I can't help to root for Tom Pidcock.
