Honesty in release notes, compliments of iTerm2 – Many improvements to auto command completion, making it actually usable.

I’m so tired of banks taking days to do a transfer yet a transaction can occur in seconds on Saturday night.

I’m hoping the adoption of web extensions in Safari means someday @1Password X support. Fact 1Password can’t differentiate between Safari and Safari Tech Preview still is drag.

Finally built up the courage to discuss ADD with my primary care doctor today when in for annual and get my anxiety prescription re-filled. He referred me to someone. 3 months to get a tele-health appointment. Le sigh.

Big shout out to blogs. If you still maintain a personal website, you rock. Even if your last post was "haven’t blogged much lately, been doing some long needed updates to my CMS", that is still awesome. That’s part of it!

I wonder if 20 years from now economists & pundits will be arguing whether the deal where Dems gave up Warren’s PPP oversight w/teeth for Bernie’s $600 was a mistake?

My new favorite feature to me of @CodePen is exporting a private pen to a private GitHub Gist

Using HTML tables and inline CSS to build a "web page" like it’s 1999. Did I mention Canvas is garbage?

I finally grok nignx-unit. Took 4 days of reading the docs, but it finally clicked last night. One last question about ports when using with Nginx as a reverse proxy, but it’s pretty amazing. And not just for php.

The UX for teachers in the Canvas LMS is a crime. Can’t imagine it being any better for the kids. No wonder online learning suffers. But sure, blame the educators.

The blurred lines between Automattic & WordPress the open source project have really caused a kerfuffle on the internets I see.

Now playing: Joe Strummer & the Mescaleros https://music.apple.com/us/album/global-a-go-go/1493855775

TIL about the --prompt flag for wp core install and why didn’t anyone ever tell me about this magic?

Don’t sleep on the importance of local judges in today’s Hillsborough County election. Ask yourself if you’d rather someone familiar & empathetic to drug & alcohol abuse along with mental health or an institutional white dude. Law enforcement stops here.

One good thing about having a 90 year old house with lots of cracks & crevices, don’t have to worry about adding makeup air to the HVAC system.

Updated my @OmniFocus automation action for @NotePlanApp so you can select the date note to add the items on your clipboard to <https://gist.github.com/miklb/a79a05f303322b138562b048f434a236>

A friendly reminder you don’t write "blogs." You write posts or articles on your blog. You can say you are "blogging about X".

I learned this weekend that Roseate Spoonbills poop pink.

Have a better week than last.

I miss getting lost alone in a crowded bar.

No one is asking you to stop calling it out. I won’t. But I am asking you to vote for Biden & Harris. I will be right there next to you In 2022 pushing for more change in Congress.

A month long journey to find out if I had contracted corona virus (complete with a lost test) ends with a negative result for antibodies thanks to the magic of giving blood.

I’ve spent far too many hours tweaking my Zsh prompt than I care to admit. Due to an upgrade, I was introduced to the powerlevel10k theme tonight. It has a delightful installer wizard for configuring your prompt that you can re-run to make changes. <https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k>

I’m going to regret doing bulk updates on my personal site without doing any testing first, but that just might be the motivation I need to finish the new server build.

I wonder how many people would have signed up for their VPN and paid extra to support the docs team if they knew what would happen otherwise

Joe Biden wasn’t thinking of me when he picked Kamala Harris.

That’s why she’s the perfect pick.

Long shot resume submission today. But first company in a long time I’ve genuinely thought would be a good fit for me. They’re literally on the edge…

I’ve become very ambivalent towards the idea of saving any business. We are either capitalists or were are not.

I’d retired using @getbumpr but pleasantly surprised doing updates that a new release with editable rules was released. With dark mode! <https://www.getbumpr.com/whats-new>

Really excited for the earthquake when Biden announces Harris AND an all woman cabinet.
