      Yesterday was my last day at Deno.
      
      From today, I'll be cheering the talented team on from outside the org.
      
      This also means that I'm now considering my next move in the DX/DevRel/Technical marketing space.

      I don't really feel like the press coverage of the metaverse implosion honestly captures the access tech press' role in propping up Mark Zuckerberg's fake innovation mythology
      
      if you go back and read "journalism" from this era, 97% was indistinguishable from advertorial
      Headline: "At SXSW, Mark Zuckerberg says metaverse is 'Holy Grail' of social experience"
