I blog so others can suffer too.Keep me posting
sometimes you use test coverage tools because you know you forgot something
Don’t know for sure when we’re moving from here but I’m looking forward to it.
No point trying to sleep between 9pm and 2am.
Or listen to music.
Or do much of anything but ponder consequences of dropping eggs on douchemobiles from our window.

Not enough tests failed.
I’m suspicious.
I mean
Well, no. That interpretation works too, based on my early experiences with police.
Long-time coder here, enthusiastic but with awful self-care habits and scars to prove it.
Beginners in particular need to set good habits for code/life balance.
Code. And do other stuff.
Read. Watch Netflix. Draw. Walk. Talk to people (if that’s your thing, I don’t judge).
We got the dogs a toy that rattles and makes noise. It is Jumpy Dog’s new favorite thing.
Loud Dog is furious about Jumpy Dog’s newfound ability to make noise happen.
I wrote a note:

The WeWork booths (seems like that was so long ago) are closed again so naturally people are sitting on the floor in the hall rather than at their desk. Lots of love for open office floor plans.
Well at least when I can’t sleep I try to make it good.
I have it. Now all I need to do is read it.

Important step in growing up: recognizing when that brilliant code tangent will take energy I don’t have (to finish now, or to clean up later).
I think the hardest thing about being Gen X isn’t even specifically an X thing.
We hit that age where we’ve refined our values and gotten closer to a good expression of who we want to be.
Pondering ways to make these tests faster.
ah the cook-your-bits macbook heat of a day’s work done well
time for bed
Quick #drawing to practice watercolor brushes in #InfinitePainter
Yay I made it to work on time!
Not that I have an enforced schedule. Just a personal target that I usually miss by 15-45 minutes.
Ha! I finally figured out enough of the moving parts for that test to pass.
Hm.
Got a lot of print statements to delete.
There’s logging, and there’s “Brian doesn’t know what the hell is going on in his own code tonight.” The difference is subtle but important.
Get the taquitos and we’ll talk.
Also, just tag me next time.
I’m on my sixth page of notes for the code I’m writing.
HERE BE DRAGONS
Mind you I’m not saying the notes are all pure gold
At the dentist for crown work because priorities but been waiting a bit. Getting antsy about other tasks planned for the day.
I wax philosophic about the creative opportunities of constraint but really it’s the only way I get anything done at all.

Almost had a quick blog post this morning. So close. Oh well, the draft will be there when I get home.
At least then I can add a few explanatory comments.
Introductions at the start of the remote meeting.
Apropos of nothing, I periodically revisit the thought that at one time my Nokia seemed large and unwieldy.
I could already format messages without any extra clicky things thanks to your not-quite-Markdown markup. Don’t need to go out of your way with popups to remind me that you’re getting more annoying, Slack.
