I blog so others can suffer too.Keep me posting
ok got my post-election pew pew time in
Finally wound down enough to relax.
I have brought Hyperbole and a Half into another person’s world so whatever else happens that much is good.
@Gina I do what I can.
OTOH this is my wife and we’ve been together a year and a half and I hadn’t shown it to her before?! Points off for that.
So annoyed with my brain. Nearly got to bed at a reasonable time. Then I bumped into a deployment issue I couldn’t fix — or let go of — for two hours.
Still no fix but at least I finally pushed myself away.
One of my complaints about non-(n)vim editors is how they start getting clunky and chunky when displaying more than seven or eight buffers at the same time.
To request
Mumbling the meditative mantra from an earlier job:
“Respect the process”
“It’s all billable”
No matter what we got a weird week ahead of us.
Repetition seems to be the theme of the day, so:
Getting as much done as I can now, because I hope to spend tomorrow evening watching Netflix and playing violent video games.
so yeah that’s some fun pew pew
Been trying to figure out why my speakers haven’t been working for the last week.
Connector? Driver? What could it be?
Oh hang on.
I turned off the speakers a couple weeks ago.
Wanted to make a whole post about this neat one-liner but all the input, all the output, and most of the pipe itself are under NDA. Here’s what’s left:
I keep forgetting that I have exa installed so I adjusted my shell aliases:
alias ls=‘exa -F –grid’alias ll=‘exa -lF –grid’alias l=‘ls -lahF –grid’
@egret You make a good point. I protected my three Loki Games CDs for years, since I wasn’t sure if there’d ever be any more studio games for Linux.
Times have indeed changed.
@lecramed right? A lot of stuff I didn’t even think about because I was accustomed to ls behavior.
Now is the part of the Friday workday where we all take our shirts off!
No?
Just us?
Y’all are missing out.
TIL a “dirty chai” is tasty.
The code part of pairing with the intern was mostly dead ends (and a couple tickets for me to work on later), so it turned into “I babble about all the pytest plugins and CLI tools I use in the course of a day”
I’m honest to goodness on-track for tickets done this week, even with an ambitious schedule.
Despite trying to destroy my work environment yesterday.
Plus, I put my Doom config in a repo since I fired up that mode more than two days in a row.
TFW the bug you think of as an edge case is the majority of the production cases.
SSH to the desktop to run the command line app to play music, because I didn’t feel like pairing my bluetooth headphones with the laptop.
There are many different kinds of lazy.
I over-enthused about regular expressions with the intern, but restrained myself to only three suggestions:
re.VERBOSE* Put your regular expression strings in variables* Learn about named capture groupsBeen doing more manual symmetry #drawing
Continuing to learn more about Doom Emacs. I’m sure I’ll blog about it, if I can just find the workspace that my blog’s in.
A thing I’ve always loved about working from home – aside from the pants thing – if I want stop everything and dance to Hollaback Girl, that’s my business.
Well gotta for real work now. Just when the day was starting to get fun.
