So, I got a job. It wasn’t the plan, but it happened. More on that in a few, but the TL;DR version is that I now work at Emerson in the Test & Measurement Group, which some of you might recognize as “NI” or “National Instruments.” Don’t worry, I’m not responsible for any of the… Read More: So, I got a job: Emerson Test & Measurement Group »
It’s been 30 days since I started my break, and, as you might imagine, some people have been asking how it’s going so far and what I’ve been up to. And some haven’t, aka this is just a personal “blahg” update and something for me to look back on. And yes, long post will be… Read More: The road so far (30 days) »
My original intention was to write this a week or two after my last day at Spiceworks, with the goal of sort of silently slipping into the night. But, as we all know, the best-laid plans rarely go, well, as planned. There is this great thread in the Spiceworks Community that Z started, and I… Read More: My Spiceworks Epilogue »
Has it really been 20 years?! Apparently, it has. Back on March 25, 2003, we launched Shadowbane. For many, Shadowbane has a lot of great game memories. And, yes, some terrible ones, too! I mean, who remembers how sb.exe was a meme before memes were cool? Or when someone used GM commands to teleport players… Read More: Shadowbane launched two decades ago! »
Ref: https://seandahlberg.com/2022/11/22/sean-has-left-the-building/ This one will be short and sweet as I’m mainly writing this for something to look back on in the years. But today, December 6th, 2022, is my first day as the Head of Developer Community, also known as “Leader, Technical Marketing,” at Cisco. I just finished my first onboarding session, and I have to admit,… Read More: Today I start the prologue of the next book in… »
Yesterday, November 21, 2022, was my last day at Spiceworks Ziff Davis. While it has sunk in mentally, it hasn’t really hit me emotionally yet. Right now, I feel like I have a day off or a mini-vacation. But I imagine it’ll hit like a freight train in a few days. Believe it or not,… Read More: Sean has left the Building »
This is just a personal milestone update; nothing to do with gaming, community management, etc, etc. And, for the most part, I’m writing this for myself and something to look back on in the years to come. March 16th was the first day in a long… long time since I was almost debt-free. I say… Read More: Almost debt free! »
I started writing this over a month ago but, as you can tell, I’m late with post it. The short version is I recently hit my 10-year mark workiversary at Spiceworks. Yes, my first day working at Spiceworks was on December 14, 2011. A decade ago. Craziness. If I turn back the clock a little… Read More: A decade of spice! »
I’m not actually sure where it started, but I noticed the “I grew up here” trend after seeing @Mightykeef‘s tweet about it. I’m not really sure where it started but it did make me go Hmmm. Honestly, I would like to put Shadowbane as where I grew up, and maybe I’ll do something about that… Read More: I grew up here: Ultima Online »
I was scheduled to go in to have my deviated septum worked on just before the COVID-19 pandemic his the Texas area… but it was postponed. Twice. For me, it wasn’t so much a nice to have but an almost necessary kind of operation. I have a pretty decent sleep apnea condition and the deviated… Read More: I have survived! »
