  • Yes, wooden posts set in cement. Not sure how deep, because it was new construction, so I didn’t do it. It seems weird that it’s still settling, but we have definitely been having insane weather swings since it was built, that we don’t normally get.

    Austin IS prone to foundation issues because something about our soul isn’t great… I’m in an area that isn’t too bad, but definitely has some issues.

    It does sound like we’re going to have to reset those posts deeper.


  • Theyre all wooden posts, set in cement. I don’t know how deep though… We hired someone to do it. They are definitely moving vertically, but I don’t think there’s any wobble from side to side… The latch is locking, and it’s about two inches tall, but it is always in line in the y axis, it just goes off up and down. Not sure if it’s both sides moving, but I know the gate is now also hitting the cement holding the opposite post.

    Pics would help for sure, I’ll get some tomorrow.








  • I think we got to a point in corporate comms where everyone decided we have to post at a regular interval, even when there’s nothing interesting happening.

    This feela like a good time to revaluate what we do on social. I have thought about standing up an instance, but realistically we have our internal Teams that employees use… So they wouldn’t use it, and I can’t imagine myself subscribing to a bunch of company instances, so it seems like it’s an effort for nobody.

    That said we often put on community events like hackathons. I think situations like that are perfect for posting on our cyber security servers.

    Less white noise trash is better.


  • I was recently asked by my employer if we should move our social media efforts to fediverse and my recommendation was that this community it’s both too small and also would be hostile (rightly) to corporate empty posting.

    As soon as threads has a web interface that’s usable I will be starting up there…

    You put your recycling in the blue can, compost in the green can and your corporate garbage on Meta.
