ye gods #raku regular expressions are so nice. Really annoyed that I’m tired and it’s bedtime now and it was just getting good.

Dang. Wanted to use FastAPI for this project but it’s a shiny smooth well-polished round peg for the square hole that is the requirements list.

It could do the thing. But it’s way off from its best use cases.

Alas. Maybe next time.

@drwho My show-stopping constraint is it needs to be a browser app (ok no probs! JS app front-end!) that can potentially function as-is for five years (ah).

FastAPI supports HTML content, but it gets like two paragraphs of coverage in the docs so far.

@drwho It’s just so pretty but I may never learn if I can make a real API with it 😆

Not only did she get me unsolicited jerky. It’s “EXTRA HOT!”

Just like her.

Anyways, clearly she loves me.

The dogs were not super thrilled about being outside when neighbors started with July 5th fireworks.

That one was loud enough and close enough that I know which house to egg tomorrow.

I’m kidding of course. I’d never waste food just because some jerk’s got some suburbanite explosion boner.

I’ll think of something else.
