Absolutely. I enjoy it so much that I wonder "do people actually NOT enjoy writing Ruby?" It's usually the first tool I pull out of the toolbox for DSLs, scripts, spikes, one-offs and the like. A lot of the time, the project

Due to me procrastinating with my notes, I was able to remember that I had touched on this before. According to my Obsidian notes: "Zeigarnik Effect Directs Our Focus Onto Unfinished Tasks"

You have to be careful of what you mean by "does it actually work". Does the dowsing find water hidden in a random spot or is the dowser tapping into subconscious knowledge about the land to find it. The parent is talking about th

Custom tooled leather accessories. I've been tooling leather (and selling some on and off) for years. It's possible to make a living with it, but it's certainly not easy. With the prevalence of fast fashion, people often get

I feel much the same way, and for much the same reason. I do, however, have a largish fleet of aliases that I've built up over the years. The vast majority of them are simple short forms. For example `tf` for `terraform` and `tfp` for

I've practiced highlighting on and off over the years, but it's never been for memorization. I've mainly used it to separate out critical passages to speed up and simplify future reading.

I know almost no one does this, but the absolute best standup meetings I've experienced have meeting of the just workers, by just the workers, to let just the workers know what's going on around them so they can self-direct. The a

I'd agree with that. Unless I'm trying to increase the amount I walk, I usually come in under 5K steps a day. It's not at all hard to add a few tasks to get it up to a more reasonable number, and I do, but if I don't in

No, we were talking about architechts making decisions that you characterised as poor. I was pointing out that your statement was over-general and that there are many instances where making the informed decision to ignore HA is a completely

Or how about "I'm fully aware, I've done the math taking into account both cost and complexity of implementation and cost of downtime, and I'm probably making fantastic calls based on my actual needs."

"They’ll stop posting in the way they currently enjoy and will, therefore, have lost some freedom." That is, quite honestly, one of the oddest definitions of freedom I've come across.

I've found that to be exactly the case. Once you are able to freely hypelink your notes, the ID isn't really helpful. It's the first thing I dropped from mine.
