Thought it was about 10:00, maybe 10:30. 1am is in fact a long ways from 10:30.

@lordbowlich woo hoo! I was just in the wrong time zone.

Somebody had a technical issue and I made a suggestion and they tried it and

it worked?

Now I’m all confused.

One job I worked a long time ago had a strict approach to meetings: a single two hour meeting, once a week. Everything else handled via email and ticket tracker.

I really miss that job sometimes.

Ooh okay #Dendron task notes are evolving a bit. 0.99 has a Set Task Status command, which makes it a bit more interesting for my mixed-used approach to Personal WTF Management.

“What if we used Hugo to drive a PKM. It’d sure make preview & publishing easier. We could maybe mix in Small Tech’s JSDB and some htmx and even have live-editing if —”

No. Brain. Stop. Go back to your corner and eat the crayons like I told you. We got work.

Doing a thing in Pandas so I can work out how to reach the same end in Danfo.js.

I didn’t know how to do the thing in Pandas either, but I know how to look up stuff for that one.

Imported my Taskwarrior tasks into Obsidian. 1,983 new notes.

Animation of that graph’s not based just on timestamp or it would be hilarious. Just “doo de doo de doo de BWOMP”

Was worried yesterday that a Node.js code idea of mine uses 73MB RAM but it turns out the same check shows “Hello World” in Node.js using 71MB so a) the idea is still on; and b) ugh Node.

Reminder from my days with Perl, Python, Ruby, PHP, etc:

The fact that I’m complaining about Node.js is the clearest indication that I’m actually using it.

Most goddam supportive team I ever worked on. Easy to give that energy back, too.

Starting to imagine lambdas / serverless as the code golf of computational resource allocation, and as such am quickly developing an intense dislike for it.

Got some project ideas, which is my surest sign that anxiety levels are down to acceptable background levels today.

I mean I still got ADHD which means I must myself away from those ideas and get work done. But still. It’s nice to feel the motor running.

@yenzie Sometimes the simplest way to say it right looks complicated at first.

@badsirbrian @petersanchez This is a resource shared with non-technical folks, otherwise I’d push for something very similar.

As it is, I encourage our devs (i can do that now am senior) to revisit project README files and have supplemental process notes in-repo where it makes sense.

Sharing the fruits of my ongoing failure to unify notes under one app.

@badsirbrian I made myself a reasonable outliner for Vim a while back, but I kept hitting more issues already solved by other tools.

So yeah I’ve got thoughts in the back of my head to steal those other solutions for the BEST EVER terminal-based note / wiki tool.

A few years with assert in Pytest and I’m completely unimpressed by xUnit-style matcher methods in other test libraries.

Used to think self.assertEqual(result, expected) or expect(result).to eq expected were just the bomb and now I’m all “WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME REMEMBER ALL THIS WHY CAN’T I JUST USE assert result == expected
