It's HOT in New Orleans right now. It hasn't exactly been COOL here since April, but the summer is absolutely brutal. We hate it. Our dog hates it. I question anyone's sanity that DOESN'T hate it. I think back to my days in Chicago and have the recurring internal debate around which is worse — … Continue reading Tech Bytes
This is my first full week of posts in a while and I'm excited to be back! I'm sure you guys can relate, but man, what a crazy season of life we're in at the moment. And the Holidays are right around the corner (eek!). I'm such a HUGE Christmas person, so I am literally … Continue reading Tech Bytes
It could be a wet weekend here in New Orleans. There is yet ANOTHER tropical storm lurking out there in the middle of the ocean, and it's currently headed straight for the Gulf. Fingers crossed that the impact is minimal. I didn't live here during Katrina, but I did experience my first hurricane in 2012 … Continue reading Tech Bytes
1. Did you know that the #Hashtag turned 10 this year?! It might be the Twitter's single greatest contribution to our lives (other than sports announcer parody accounts, social media mobs, and political debate live streams). 2. TL;DR — even though I had seen this abbreviation all over the internet and had no idea what it meant, I never bothered … Continue reading Tech Bytes
Did I mention that blogging is hard? I absolutely love to write, and I have a deep passion for the subject matter that I write about, and it's still really, really hard. We traveled non-stop from the end of July through Labor Day, so posting consistently was a challenge. I think it will get easier as … Continue reading Tech Bytes
We're in Southampton for a long weekend, and can I just say how amazing it is to live like the 1% for a few days? This place is basically an incredible alternate version of reality. The houses, the clubs, the restaurants, even the LANDSCAPING for goodness' sake. All amazing. But at the same time, it's … Continue reading Tech Bytes
Time for another round of random @#%$ I found around the internet! This was my first week back in the office after being at Bank School for 10 days. Everyone knows how that goes. The week you return is a whirlwind. You feel like you'll never catch up. Your coworkers treat you like you've been gone for … Continue reading Tech Bytes
1. In case Game of Thrones confuses you as much as it confuses me at times, here's a good reminder of where each of the characters was when we left them at the end of Season 6. I'd advise checking it ASAP because we're already heading into Episode 2 and who knows how many of … Continue reading Tech Bytes
As mentioned yesterday, it has been a while. So I think a refresher around our "Tech Bytes" posts is in order. Rebecca and I are constantly on the Internet researching and reading about tech, so as a result, we come across a lot of interesting/funny/bizarre things. We often share them with each other to break … Continue reading Tech Bytes
I often feel pressure to read ONLY things that are highly “intellectual,” but I just spent two longgggg years in business school reading about things like straddles, the Dickey-Fuller Test, and the LIBOR Scandal. I’ve EARNED a break. Plus, summer just feels like the perfect time for “easy-reads.” I’m totally addicted to my Kindle and bring … Continue reading Tech Bytes
