If anyone is looking for a #buildinpublic project that’s using @turborepo, @nextjs, @shadcn, @v0, @tailwindcss and soon to add @supabase and @resend… may I introduce Protect Aqua github.com/JamesSingleton/pr…

So the grassroots bullet point hits home for me. My wife is the head swim coach for one of our local high schools and the only club team in a city of 80,000 residents and one of a handful in a county with over 500,000 people.

Promo rewrite to help the @NCAA sound credible:
“Will South Dakota STATE repeat & BECOME back-to-back National Champions? Or will Montana earn their 3rd National Championship & 1ST SINCE their last title in 2001?”
Facts matter, as does promoting the correct teams. Your welcome.

Last day with @matteocollina is in the books! Things I learned/learned about:
- autocannon
- clinic
- don't use pm2
- pointer compression can reduce your memory usage by 50-60%
- how to detect memory leaks
- don't use regenerator-runtime
- I need to take a deep dive into @nodejs

I’m going to be a little upset if @VMI_Football’s head coach Danny Rocco isn’t a candidate for coach of the year. VMI went from 1-10 overall and 0-8 in the @SoConSports to 5-6 overall and 4-4 in conference. New offense, defender, and coaching staff.

A @Rivian rep reached out to me saying he could get me into either a dual motor max pack for $470/mo or a tri motor for $650/mo with my trade in and lease promotions. I’m almost tempted… but did say if I want NACS to wait and see how the summer goes.

Me: Here's a link to it, let me know if you have questions.

BREAKING: VMI long snapper Robert Soderholm III tells me that he has a meeting planned tonight with the #Patriots. @RobertSoderholm also told me he had a “really good” meeting with New England at the NFLPA Bowl. #SeniorBowl

Chattanooga, 7-5 overall (7-3 vs the FCS)
Western Carolina, 7-5 overall (7- 4 vs the FCS)
Western Carolina beat Chattanooga and Samford (who beat Chattanooga last week). WCU's worst loss is against Campbell, UTC's is against Samford.
IF the SoCon gets 2 in, I think it's WCU

So if I did the math correctly (math is hard 😂), here is the FCS Top 25 when you combine @FCSFansNation, @FCSNationRadio1, @FCSpoll, @_redshirtsports, and @The__Bluebloods. Teams had to be on more than 1 of the polls

When dealing with @tailwindcss classes, do you prefer everything in one line or do you break them by state using a utility like `clsx` or `classname`?

Things I would like to see @VMI1839/@VMIAthletics do to help improve @VMI_Football is implement a Masters program similar to @Citadel1842. I would also like to see turf added as well as stadium lights and a big field house.

Not going to lie... It's a little difficult to setup @shadcn in a @turborepo as the packages/ui github.com/JamesSingleton/pr…

I wanted to announce that @_redshirtsports is still going to be putting out our FCS Top 25! I want this to be a sort of partnership with my fellow FCS Media folks once again. We are looking to make our voter pool stronger this year. Who should be included that wasn't last year?

Anyone from @VMI_Football entering the transfer portal DM me or on @Redshirt_Portal so that I can post that you're entering the portal. As an Alumni, I want to help y'all at least find a new home, especially if you're graduating with a degree from VMI!

I want to thank everyone who was part of our inaugural FCS Top 25 poll where we show everyone’s ballot alongside the Top 25. Hopefully next year we can get it recognized as an official media poll.
I’m also all ears on how we can make it better for next year!

EXTENDED...! Western Carolina and @AlexGaryAD have inked @CatamountsFB head coach @CoachKerwinBell to a five-year contract extension that keeps him in #CatamountCountry through 2030! Bell has led The Cats to three consecutive winning seasons!

I don’t get keeping Chattanooga in the Top 25. They are 1-3 with an FCS loss and 2 FBS losses. They haven’t looked complete in my mind. For a team that was projected to win the SoCon, Portland State should not have scored 30 on them.
After eight ranked teams lost, there's bound to be a new look in FCS football polls for Week 6.
Here's how @stan_becton sorted it out in his #StatsPerformFCSTop25 ballot.

So our streets don’t have signs but within the city there’s a 72 hour period your car can be parked on the street without moving and each HOA has their own rules that are usually stricter than that… mine requires a vehicle to be moved every 24 hours if on the street
