The yak shaving continues. All documentation systems focus on libraries and how to use your software and none on how to understand your software. And we don't apply basic typographic principles to reading code. So of course I have to write a thing that takes source code and compiles it to a more readable format, and off to the races I go. Yak, yak, shave the yak.
Started breaking out a smol SQL parser to build a very smol DB. The plan is to support SELECT, INSERT and DELETE with WHERE and INNER JOIN only and make a dB a directory and a table a aub-directory and a row a text file names after the primary index.

Just a small matter of programming. Not to neg on other Erlang/Elixir devs but jeez connector pools with ranch? Roll your own loop ladz lololol.
doing a pensioner-eurorail holiday just pottering about Europe on trains. Its good but slow. Coming home to Scotland from Naples will take us three nights and 2 1/2 days lolol.
