Far be it for me to judge, but I’d enjoy your backyard social gathering / one-man concert more if I didn’t have to hear it.

@bcongdon OH MY GOODNESS

on the one hand yay it looks like I get to scrap a half-dozen unfinished scripts because he’s got it covered.

OTOH aww there’s no point working on that half-dozen unfinished scripts because somebody else covered it.

Nothing like a mild bit of nausea during a pandemic to make one’s anxieties go into overdrive.

Saw a guy in the grocery store maskless with a Jesus shirt buying a twenty dollar scratch ticket & I’m thinking buddy I’m no church goer but that ain’t how faith works?

It’s officially 5/4 Day!

Playing it again. I know I played it yesterday. You don’t get to judge me.

Instagram sure does want me to see a lot of shinbari. I suppose that makes sense as an intersection of yarn projects, knotwork drawings, and pinup. It’s cool. Just a little surprising.

TFW you need to decide which of the interleaved thoughts in the editor buffer is the actual blog post you’re writing and which is a draft for later and which is trash.

First task is uh uh um oh hey food. Today’s first task is food.

Found and applied for a couple dev positions that weren’t at VC-backed soul siphons, so all in all I’d say I earned this headache.

Sure one level of pragmatism says delete this, but another level deeper and you see those series-whatever Renfields hiring me would be as bad a mistake as me taking the job, so leaving it up is the more practical sound choice.

Checked back on my fiddly variable font site after a minor Vivaldi update, and it picks up the MONO axis now. Still having some trouble with italics but at least the code looks like code.

I wouldn’t be mad if I had to use Vivaldi.

I made a priority task to cut down on the priority tasks, and here we are

Taskwarrior Custom Reports

hackers.town: 2020-04-30 Thu 01:21

@y0x3y That’s only because when I first used Taskwarrior I tried every feature at once. Ended up scrapping that task data and starting fresh. I use a little more than I’ve described but not by much.

Glad it helps!
