Seen at the empty lot at 3rd & Virginia.
But it’s not empty. It has two condo mockups, complete with landscaping, that’ll be torn down when the building goes up.
Great moments in pretentious advertising for a condo building

macOS Mojave Dark Mode is disappointing
I don’t like it.
Color palette choices will affect the readability of fonts, symbols, and icons. The radical changes that result from switching to Dark Mode reduced my screen’s readability.
A good Dark Mode would be a lot more complicated than just changing the palette.
YMMV.
Our housewarming
My wife and I held a housewarming yesterday in our house of two+ months. So many friends came and it was a fantastic time!
But we’re now agonizing over gifts without tags and we can’t recall their givers! We greeted, hugged, here this is for you!, start talking about the house, then another friend arrives and we context switch and our mental note about the gift doesn’t make it into the NVRAM.
So the afternoon is now a blur of memories. We look at some of the plants, wine glasses, and wine and can’t remember who to thank.
In an oblique way, this is a good problem to have: So many friends wishing you joy that you can’t remember them all!
Great moments in advertising
Seen on the fence around the new construction at the old Kirkland ParkPlace.
If you claim you are before you even exist, you won’t be.
Great moments in positive affirmation

Busy and happy
Lots going on! We bought a house and we’re moving back into Queen Anne on Monday. The CMB/Seattle office now employs five people and has multiple job openings. Life is good!
I’ll be phone-less for two weeks
My iPhone 6s’ battery has been losing efficacy over time, and its processor has been performance-throttled for the past two months. So, I’m sending it to Apple for a battery replacement. I opted for the mail-in procedure because I’m lazy.
I’ll be without my phone for “five to nine business days,” which sounds like two weeks to me. I haven’t been without a mobile phone since 1995! (My first phone was an analog Motorola microTAC.)
The CMB/Seattle office grows
CMB just hired a fourth Seattleite. And we’re scheduled to double our office space in May, still at the Westlake WeWork office.
