This #drawing would like go quicker if I didn’t insist on doing the whole thing in #LineaSketch but at least I’m having fun.

Ah yes. Turns out a whole batch of tests was not testing anything meaningful, which explains why they passed no matter what I did to the (supposedly) relevant application code.

hackers.town: 2021-02-02 Tue 16:08

Ah well. The price of getting all the credit is I get all the blame too.

Unfortunate aspect of working remote is that it’s mainly your loved ones who get to hear you be disgruntled.

Ah well. She talked me off my ledge and gave me some ideas, which is good.

The only bit of Django that actually chafes is the templating. Sometimes I just want to render a partial, not do the templatetags dance.

Using numbers from my dataset with the graphing library tutorial instead of their sample data. I don’t know what any of this means. I’m pretty sure it’s the wrong kind of numbers. Any insight I gain will be purely accidental.

1462 queries. Okay, maybe that’s a little too much duct tape.

Extracted from an otherwise unsharable work rant:

You don’t work with companies. You work with people. That team: how you treat them, how they treat you. That defines your work experience.

Made a little tabbed component with Django Unicorn and it was fun.

Maybe not better for the JS die-hard, and I can’t compare it to Hotwire, Livewire, LiveView, Sockpuppet etc, but it was more fun than basic Django.

Ah, Red Dwarf. The worldbuilding. The jokes. The mid-80s British television special effects budget.

Told her she had the inny and outy bits I like so much and she was bemused and I have failed as a spouse so I just bought enough Red Dwarf to get us started.
