Christmas firsts in 1994: the first Christmas together (in person) for Jenn and me, in our tiny first flat, with my family cat Buffy that we were borrowing until we got our first cats. #dejus365 #ThrowbackThursday
ThrowbackThursday
An assortment of old CD-ROMs: CodeWarrior dev tools, Mac OS 9, Mac OS X 10.1 (Puma), 10.2 (Jaguar), 10.3 (Panther), 10.4 (Tiger), 10.5 (Leopard), and iLife ’04 and ’05. #dejus365 #ThrowbackThursday
For #ThrowbackThursday, a couple of pictures of my childhood bedroom bookshelves, in 1989 and 1993. Most of it sci-fi books, but a lot of uni textbooks too. Fun vintage things: classic Mac graphics, After Dark screensaver boxes, my first US dollars, VHS & cassette tapes, MacUser poster, dot matrix printer. #dejus365
Another old school photo: Sherwood Primary School, 1980. Again, I’m the goofy-looking kid with glasses. #dejus365 #ThrowbackThursday
Happy Thanksgiving! For #ThrowbackThursday, here’s a traditional NZ pavlova dessert that Jenn made and I decorated for one of my first US Thanksgivings, in 2004. #dejus365
Childhood cats from 30 years ago: Cassie (left outside), Buffy (right outside), and Scruffy (inside). #dejus365 #ThrowbackThursday 🐱
Back when I was attending Auckland University around 1990, I worked on weekends in the private library at the Adis International HQ, photocopying drug articles, filing medical journals, and working on their minicomputer and IBM PC. #ThrowbackThursday #dejus365
I just dropped off my truck to the dealer for a repair, so for today’s #ThrowbackThursday it seems only appropriate to show this old family car from around 1988. I’m not a car guy, but I think it’s the Mitsubishi Lancer that I learned on and drove? A bit of a clunker. #dejus365
[Update: my brother informs me that this was my father’s Mitsubishi Galant Sigma; not the Lancer I inherited. As I said, not a car guy.]
Sherwood Primary School foundation year, 1976. I’m the kid wearing glasses in the middle. #dejus365 #ThrowbackThursday
I’m heading to the Swift by Northwest conference this afternoon, so for #ThrowbackThursday this week, here’s the swag from the previous iteration of this conference that I attended, CocoaConf in 2015. I do hope the new conf has a similar mug; it’s my favorite. #dejus365
