Sep 24, 2020, 7:52 PM -04:00 I have just realized that "I'd be down for that" and "I'd be up for that" mean the same thing 😮

Sep 22, 2020, 7:52 PM -04:00 I'm not entirely sure that I am. I've fried thick slices so they develop a crust. The result is tasty enough, but not great.

Sep 21, 2020, 3:16 PM -04:00I finished A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers recently. I loved it. There’s something very lovely about Becky Chambers’ sci-fi – it’s much more touching and emotional than a lot that I’ve read. I felt quite emotional at the ending of this one – it’s so full of heart and compassion. -

The Design Confidential Free DIY Furniture Plans to Build a Twin Sized Low Loft Bunk Now, I am going to assume most of you have kiddos…or will have kiddos…or your kiddos have grown and have their own kiddos..either way I know this will excite you because the project I will share with you retails for more than $1300 when you add up all of the extras. Can I tell you how much I spent on this from start to finish? $118 TOTAL including an entire gallon of Zinc by Martha Stewart for H... -

Sep 11, 2020, 9:03 AM -04:00 Maybe you could just say "hello", but with a French accent :-) I'm only half-joking. If the language you're using doesn't have a word for the concept you wish to express, I sort of feel like you're justified in borrowing a word from another language.

There's "salut" which means "hi" but considered to casual to greet your neighbors, especially if you live in a big building and don't know them by name. So you basically have to know what time it is before greeting them. (plus it's not like there's an official cut-off) -

Sep 8, 2020, 11:10 PM -04:00 It's funny how I can suspend my disbelief about most things in movies or on TV except when people in restaurants order "a beer" or "a whiskey". People never do this! They're always more specific.

Jul 9, 2020, 9:00 AM -04:00How my blogroll gets generated (now completely automatic!)
Yesterday I teased a new post about how I automated my blogroll generation by writing a Go script and using the Miniflux API. Here it is.Up until yesterday, I always updated my blogroll manually. I wrote about that process here. It was a bit of automation but not completely automated. I fixed that and now do what Robert van Bregt suggested or what Jan Boddez does with his WordPress plugin.To generate my site I use a self-hosted instance of Drone CI (I already wrote about that a few times) wit... -

In 2018, I started working at Bloomberg. Things have changed a lot since. I’m not the most junior member in the company anymore and I’ve mentored quite a few new engineers, which has been amazing. It helped me observe how others differ from me, absorb their best practices, and figure out things I’ve unconsciously been doing pretty well. Yearly work reviews are a good way to condense these lessons I’ve learned. They’re valuable for pattern matching, too. Only when I zoom out do certain patte...
