Just taught one of our cats how to play fetch!

If you have an iOS device I highly recommend you check out https://play.date/media/ and scroll down to the AR section. You can view the device in AR and its really fun to play with.

This website is beautiful https://play.date/

and the IDEA is beautiful too!

If you have no real CI to speak of, a long release cycle, rubber-stamp code review, and a heavy-weight process for adding features after branch cut, your best bet if you need to get code into the release is to squeeze your half-baked code in just before the branch cut and then let QA catch the brokenness so that you can then submit your real code as a fix for the test failure.

In my defense I did actually think the code could work.

The Cat

I spotted her on my walk. I wonder just what she was thinking?

I'm incredibly happy to finally be able to talk about this wild thing I've been apart of building for 4 years!

I don't mean this in an elitist/exclusionary way. I think it's a bit irresponsible that coding schools and bootcamps start people off by teaching them React/Angular/etc. It's as if you took a woodworking shop and they're like, "OK day one, you will architect an entire five-story building and build it from scratch."

Aww man I totally missed that Unicode 12 came out in March!

https://unicode.org/versions/Unicode12.0.0/

554 new characters, 61 new emoji

including important additions to Miao script, used for communicating with cats in the mountains of Yunnan and Sichuan,

and some kind of changes to Bopomofo, if you have Bopomofo fomo

I bought an old ThinkPad at a yard sale for $5. It had a clean install of Windows XP, except for one file, named "dat forklift.jpg"

"i will block all government functions until you finish investigating my many crimes" is really, like, zero-dimensional chess

I see my web site has been down for most of a day with: "Error establishing a database connection"

Which is interesting because it's a static site.

I think tonight I'll be breaking out the blender. I've got vanilla ice cream, half & half, and maple syrup. Time to make (and enjoy) a good old fashioned milkshake.
