I knew that she was a comedian but hadn’t seen any of her standup so I didn’t really have any attachment to her as a reason to want to watch the show. But I like it. It’s definitely getting better, but it also definitely depends on the chemistry of the guests. I remember the one with Gillian Jacobs (obligatory “oh, Britta’s in this?”) was particularly good. Their YouTube channel puts up a playlist of most (all?) of the previous night’s show, and it has become a regular watch while I’m doing emails etc in the morning.

I grew up in Alabama but live in Colorado now. If I were forced to live somewhere in Alabama, Huntsville would be at/near the top of my list. But it’s still Alabama, and I’d still waaay rather live in Colorado. It obviously doesn’t keep everyone away, and there’s a lot of inertia there with all the existing space/rocket/defense industry in Huntsville. But is Space Command even going to be hiring heavily in the engineering fields that are concentrated in Huntsville? (That’s a real question- I’d guess they’re not hiring primarily engineers that they’d find in Huntsville, but I don’t know.)

I was using liftoff at first but Connect is much closer to the UI and feature set I want. I do want a way to see the instance in the list view, but that got very cluttered in liftoff. I wondered if maybe an option to deemphasize (smaller? Faded?) the instance in the community name might help it be less cluttered.
