Wanting WSL 2
Been impatiently waiting for the general release of WSL 2 – the Windows Subsystem for Linux. What’s interesting about WSL 2?
WSL 2 delivers a much faster file system performance and full system call compatibility, which lets you run more applications like Docker!
Looks like it’s scheduled to go out in the first half of 2020. So I can either wait several months or switch my rarely-used Windows partition to the Insider Ring.
I should at least wait until Build 18917 or later shows up in the Slow Ring on Flight Hub.
fidgets a lot
We’ll see.

Starting to look forward to little things when I get home, like hanging with the PHP developer neighbor and dunking on people who dunk on programming languages.

Started with IDLE for my first Python explorations, but goodness that UI hasn’t improved any.
Got a task to try Mu, and see if I can recommend it to future learners.

Instagram memory from seeing Brent Amaker and the Rodeo at West Seattle Summer Fest.
Great stuff — if you like goth country I guess you could call it?

Bay Area’s corrupting influence works fast. Not even two weeks and I’m using an app for food.

Elevator opening by itself in the old hotel. No big deal. Ignore the tales of hauntings.
I am like unto the dog, drinking coffee amidst flames and declaring the situation acceptable.

Therapist: and what do we do when we feel sad?
Me: mess up memes
Therapist: oh no
