Specific content required in a specific context. Using a dictionary in a constants.py library for the content, and BeautifulSoup in view tests to confirm the context.
Feeling pretty good about myself.

Boy howdy but I sure am good at finding the rough edges for WSL usage.
This time around, using headless Firefox to load a single page. 36s on WSL2 vs ~6s on Linux and ~8s in Windows native.

Every page has been a cliffhanger with #KillSixBillionDemons lately. I love it. I hate it. Whatever, just hurry and get the next page up!

Pink and white flowers blooming; one fallen leaf visible on the ground

I understand my Django projects setup.
Rewarding myself with a little chocolate. Nothing more, because I’d already been rewarding myself all evening for my admirable work ethic.

“Yes I can add [thing]. It’s not difficult, but it’s a new feature not in the spec. So we’ll want to adjust our calendar dates.”
God that felt good.

Leaf blower outside going so loud that the meeting app thinks I’m talking and just reminded me that I’m muted.

@thegibson TBH I’m not sure what my part is. “Pay attention and try not to make anything worse” seems to occupy a lot of brain.

All that is heretical and unspeakable, save me.
I’m learning project management and architecture.
It’s just to manage myself, but still.

Managed to make myself angry with syncthing (ignoreDelete setting is ignored?). Maybe I won’t quite throw Dropbox away yet.
Trying NextCloud.

Nice thing about having CWs as a built-in feature with Mastodon (when you use it):

Bounced around different sync solutions over the last year+ but I think I’m back to Syncthing. It does what I need & not a bunch of stuff I don’t.
