When I was using pycharm 2024 I had a plugin installed called "evaluate-async-code" and it was suuuuper helpful bc the codebase at work is primarily async python and not being able to debug async findings was always a pain, as outputs would be passed around and not always stored. I know, it's easy to store it as a variable, and it's just easier to get that value in that moment than realize you'll need to add one and restart the debugger.

My goal this year is to "move faster" and oh man, it's a different kind of pain, doing intervals. They're certainly more fun, but the recovery it demands is 2x my normal easy-to-moderate runs.

Seeing a moose in real life was an otherworldly experience. It's HUGE and terrifying.

What endless redirect, link hijacking hell was that?

It can be a treacherous hike in bad weather! You can arrange for bus pickup because it's a through hike, but if the weather is so bad, they'll email you and tell you the bus is canceled. Absolutely worth hiking if you're ever in NZ!

Those are good questions! I've never thought of that. I'd just pick up anything like a damn caveman.

It's not that I have the skills yet. Outside of painting a wall, it's all new territory 🤣

I just patched some drywall. The paper was tearing and stuff. Now I've gotta sand, primer, and paint the room. Then, replace a seal for a toilet and hopefully that Just Works™️ then I can reinstall the floor I had to rip up. Then replace the trim 😵‍💫 this is too much

My favorite cocktail is an old fashioned. Depending on the bar, bourbon won't be the biggest differentiator. Some places hurt my soul and use too much simple syrup and make it too sweet. Others put a bunch of small ice cubes which quickly melt and that's not great either. Woodford is solid and widely available. I can't remember the last time I haven't had that stocked at home 😊

Bulleit is my go-to for cocktails at a bar. It's a fine flavor, widely available, and not too expensive. If you're ordering a cocktail you really don't need anything too nice because you're masking/blending the flavor with others. Buffalo Trace is my other go-to for the same reasons there.

Getting a nice bourbon neat, well, that's usually so expensive at a bar I'll only get it if the company is paying 😅

That was a very long read, and I'm amazed how detailed the author went into his processes (and rules!) to write it up. I was drawn in when he started going over email headers, and hooked by the time he picked up the phone for a call.

"They" is a pretty broad brush 😭
