Do not shop on first coffee
Got sidetracked while picking up breakfast stuff from Uwajimaya. Should probably have finished my first cup of coffee before I left. Could have been worse. There was an entire boy band worth of that Babinski Cold Brew. I only took one.
Meanwhile, someone put a flyer on the apartment bulletin board for the Earshot Jazz Festival. Checked to see if any of the names were familiar. Most were new to me, but I recognized — and enjoy — Knife Knights.
A jazz context makes more sense for Knife Knights than rap/hip-hop, which is where I usually see them filed. Heck, genres are meaningless anyways. My favorite music stores just arrange albums alphabetically.
Anyways, time to drink some coffee!

I like that I can do Markdown formatting in toots.
But the neither formatting nor Markdown survive cross-posting to birbsite.
What to do?
Disable the cross-poster.
Ok

Writing the go version of a Perl utility script. The writing is slow (because I’m still learning the language).
Hopefully the running will be fast.

Napping would be better if my brain didn’t immediately start polling the TODO queue on awakening.

My go version appears to be running significantly slower than the Perl version. That seems wrong.
Oh I bet I know right where the excessive naiveté is: managing the database transactions.

Writing some Go code and noticing that possible performance bottlenecks to consider when debugging include file I/O, external programs, and PEBKAC

Perl did that in 87 minutes. Go’s been at it for ~2 hours and is roughly 1/3 done.
I know my Go knowledge is limited, but sheesh.

Interrupted my go program at 3 hours (and still less than half done), adjusted an object allocation, tried again. I think it’s going faster but you can sure tell when the garbage collection kicks in.

My lap has a guest.
