Something I wrote recently to put a smile on my face after a couple of tough weeks doing cold outreach. If it makes another person smile, it was time we’ll spent.

TMI: I'm stressed, in pain, behind on work, tired from caring for my partner, and I have a constant headache because my short range work glasses broke forcing me to use a much older pair. You made me smile and laugh, so I'm grateful for you today. Thank you.

    Hey thanks for the thoughts, you're pretty great you know? In good news, my new glasses got delivered today so I'm able to eliminate that literal and figurative headache :)

      That’s great news re: the glasses — headaches are horrendous!

I think it would be handy to show what sloc is (spire lines of code). I had to look it up since I'm used to just loc and I could not get my brain to figure out the s this morning.

  It just means "source lines of code". "losc" sort of makes more sense with how we are used to speaking, but it's not as easy to pronounce as "sloc".

  Apologies for the confusion. I hope the ambiguity didn’t detract too much from your enjoyment. Maybe I could sneak an <abbr> in there for SLOC like I did for CSP.

    I'm really curious where you found "spire lines of code". I can't find anything for that in a google search. What does that mean?

      Probably just a swypo for “source”. o is close to p, u is close to i.

        That was precisely it. Getting the right message out of Gboard is like pulling teeth. Just this message had like fifteen typos.

        I don’t know if it’s my expectations evolving after using swyping for a while but it seems to have gotten worse over time. There’s gotta be a word for this phenomenon.
