After paying no attention to my twtxt file for a while, I finally learned today how to reply to someone properly. Now I need to start actually following other people…
Huh.. CloudFlare finally did the right thing.. Though reputation probably damaged.
I did a take home software engineering test for a company recently, unfortunately I was really sick (have finally recovered) at the time 😢 I was also at the same time interviewing for an SRE position (as well as Software Engineering).
Got the results of my take-home today and whilst there was some good feedback, man the criticisms of my work were harsh. I’m strictly not allowed to share the work I did for this take-home test, and I really can only agree with the “no unit tests” piece of the feedback, I could have done better there, but I was time pressured, sick and ran out of steam. I was using a lot of libraires to do the work so in the end found it difficult to actually think about a proper set of “Unit Tests”. I did write one (in shell) but I guess it wasn’t seen?
The other points were on my report and future work. Not detailed enough I guess? Hmmm 🤔
Am I really this bad? Does my code suck? 🤔 Have I completely lost touch with software engineering? 🤦♂️
Finally started Stranger Things and watched episodes 1 to 5 so far, I quite like it.
So it happened - the twtxt.xyz domain finally expired

@screem@yarn.yarnpods.com yah I finally saw all of Dave’s twts and figured he had explained Gog’s/gitea better.
About two years late, but I finally finished setting up an iOS Shortcut so I can post to my blog via ssh. http://a.9srv.net/b/
Extraordinary that I’ve managed to avoid DS9 spoilers for twenty years. Really enjoying this final season, so far.
Finally! 😂

The original twt is unavailable. It may have been edited or deleted, or is from an unknown or muted feed.

@prologic@twtxt.net i think i finally suss’d out my hash issue.. now to figure out why im losing avatars on restart.
@xuu@txt.sour.is @adi@twtxt.net Private Messaging is finally done in the messages_poc_2 branch. If you have time to have a look and play with it locally and test it out that would be great. The plan is to release this as the first version which only supports “on-pod messaging” right now (cross-pod to come later).
Finally a day off!
I finally got to watch The VVitch
Why is programming fun? What delights may its practitioner expect as his reward? First is the sheer joy of making things. As the child delights in his mud pie, so the adult enjoys building things, especially things of his own design. I think this delight must be an image of God’s delight in making things, a delight shown in the distinctness and newness of each leaf and each snowflake. Second is the pleasure of making things that are useful to other people. Deep within, we want others to use our work and to find it helpful. In this respect the programming system is not essentially different from the child’s first clay pencil holder “for Daddy’s office.” Third is the fascination of fashioning complex puzzle-like objects of interlocking moving parts and watching them work in subtle cycles, playing out the consequences of principles built in from the beginning. The programmed computer has all the fascination of the pinball machine or the jukebox mechanism, carried to the ultimate. Fourth is the joy of always learning, which springs from the nonrepeating nature of the task. In one way or another the problem is ever new, and its solver learns something: sometimes practical, sometimes theoretical, and sometimes both. Finally, there is the delight of working in such a tractable medium. The programmer, like the poet, works only slightly re- moved from pure thought-stuff. He builds his castles in the air, from air, creating by exertion of the imagination. Few media of creation are so flexible, so easy to polish and rework, so readily capable of realizing grand conceptual structures. (As we shall see later, this very tractability has its own problems.)

Finally creating PHP programs using Composer and Twig templates
My 2014 Android Moto-X is finally out-of-order - the battery life is close to flat-lining and when it boots it gets stuck for a really long time in the optimizing apps mode. The case is cracked. Goodbye old friend.
Requested my #hacktoberfest T-shirt and sticker pack! Happy I finally managed to participate and contribute this year.
Finally you can make G+ readable https://t.co/6VmXsXFD12
