Be me, about four years old. Decide i need to drive a car for fun.Wake little brother at four in the morning and we sneak out with moms car keys. This is in the city mind you, with cars parked tightly behind each other on the curb. Get in, start the engine and lights. Can’t get the fucking hand brake lose. Luckily mom smells bullshit and comes looking for us before I figure it out. Get roasted for that to this day, mom is nearly 70 now and still tells this story to this day.

I’m kind of an electrical engineer by training. Experience taking electronics apart, but this was my first mechanical device. It was quite the journey and I only saw some general videos about people taking combustion engines apart. It’s a pretty simple device really, but still a new skill. :)

Keister watch.

Took a wood shredder apart and back together after something got stuck inside.

Love me a magnolia tree

Bareos. Its a newer Form of bacula and is a realworkhorse.

… Where there is greenery. It’s scientifically proven to improve mental wellbeing if you see greenery just 20 minutes a day.

There is a case of someone clowning against the glass and falling down with the glass and dying from it. So… Fear validated?

I was testing some code late at night in the test system. Rolled out the changes, log on to the admin interface and write a short news article about how one of the more hated profs at the university had died suddenly and unexpectedly.

Result looks good, roll out changes to prod, about to call it quits for the night. Think to myself: common reason people get fired, maybe delete the story from test system. Check test system, no story there… Uhoh.

Story has been live for about three hours. Hope no spiders have caught it yet, hurry to delete it and learn how to purge all evidence from database.

Turns out the shithead admin had copy and pasted the server config for the test system from live and forgotten to change the admin rewrite rules to test system. Phew…

Love the western definition meaning integrity. Loathe the definition meaning group pressure up to violence.

Lots oft running npm wrappers for an allegedly Rust dritten Pierce of Software

Don’t ever buy Sony wireless buds. They stop working right around the one year mark. Customer service is horrible.

Watch miss marvel and listen how her mother calls her.

Take a long walk through a beautiful forest, take in all the greenery and fresh air and maybe reconsider. Life is precious. You can always sell all your stuff and just leave. Ever wanted to live as a backpacker? Just go wherever you want and the road takes you.

I taught my kid to say “mom drinks beer for breakfast” as soon as she could talk. Wasn’t that popular with the family xD

I’m surprised nobody mentioned that yet: talk to your boss. Do you have a good relationship? If he wants to keep a motivated good worker, he might be able to do something for you.

Also: food banks.
