DEV BLOG - Week 41 of 2024

Sunday, October 6th

It's a new week, but the Friday of my normal work week. I have a lot of things on the brain right now, and watching the insanity in my old neck of the woods.

Monday, October 7th

It's not even midnight here, and I'm not completely sure what I'm going to do other than eat a taco. I'm going to do that in a few minutes because it is a moral imperative.

I have several projects that I'm threatening to work on. I have BrainBox, and I also have Yr Olwyn, as well as this little loggy thing that I try to keep up with. On top of that, I'd really like to flesh out the SDF site, because that is an account that can pretty much live forever I would hope. I'd prefer to keep them at the gemini capsule level, although I have considered some Apache fuckery and limitiing a web version of the sites to text based browsers only.

Then you have the BBS (or two) that I haven't attacked again yet. I just get the sneaking suspicion that a bunch of bullshit is about to happen in this country. I'd rather be on the front end of it.

Now that it is after midnight and I am post-taco, I'm not sure on what I want to start with first.

Tuesday, October 8th

Today was not nearly as good or as productive as I'd hoped. I've been in a new level of pain most of the day. It's been difficult to even eat this week, and I think I was able to achieve that late in the evening, but even now I'm hurting in brand new ways.

Wednesday, October 9th

Thursday, October 10th

Tonight (this morning, technically), we had another of those big tasks. Got it done. Not gonna talk too much more about it. I didn't get everything as complete and submitted as I would like to have had. That does happen sometimes, usually when you are the only one that functionally gives a shit.

Friday, October 11th

I'm trying to figure out what I want to do on the SDF capsule. I know that I need to get the ARPA package that has the lifetime membership, and as a mostly life-long afficianado of Unix, and Solaris in particular, I like the idea of being part of this community.

For example, this is really supposed to be a dev blog, but it's really where I note the place I'm at on any given day, and I really should be getting more of that out than I do. I'd like to get a more complete and regular blog where I get thoughts down, and that would be more useful on the SDF site. At least that's the vision.

Some of the pain I've had in the last week or so is starting to lighten, so that is good. But there is always the aftermath to deal with. I'm trying to recover there, but you know how things go... nobody really gives a shit, so you're on your own.

Saturday, October 12th

I'm having another day of pain, which is not much of a surprise. I was supposed to be taking my little to ride Thomas the Tank Engine in a major city. Paid the $100 for the tickets. But the pay job is playing musical chairs with their time clock, and wouldn't let us submit time off, so here we sit, having missed it.
