Emacs refresh-package-contents
Tried adding Evil to Emacs with 2019-11-09 Emacs use-package. Didn’t work.
Didn’t write the error message down, of course. Something about MELPA looking for a package version from two months ago and deciding the package was “Not Found”.
Eventually figured out I need to run package-refresh-contents, which grabs the latest package listings. Might be overkill to run that automatically in every Emacs session, so I won’t add it to my .emacs.
I will add a comment though.
Code Sample
;; Package not installing?
;; Try 'M-x package-refresh-contents'
(require 'package)
Hopefully I remember to read my own comments.
Or the evil documentation.

Realizing my self-talk is harsher than it needs to be, considering that I’ve gotten 6+ hours of sleep maybe four nights of the last eight months. Thank you, straight pipe douchemobile dudes.
Well. Time for white noise, headphones, and sleep meds. Trying for 6+ tonight.

Avoid caffeine the day of your float to enhance your float experience.

60 minute float session. I lasted about 15 minutes. Then someone tried to call, my fingerprint unlock didn’t work, I forgot my passcode, got locked out of my phone, anxiety spiked, so I got out and read a book for 45 minutes.
Cosmos by Carl Sagan.
5 stars would float again.
