πŸ“… day [[2024-12-02]]
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-30]]
  • I’m writing this on the train to [[Bern]], after which I will make a few connections and make my way to [[Puidoux]] where I’ll join a [[party in the forest]].
    • It’s going to be quite cold tonight and the party goes on until Sunday afternoon, so I’m happy I got some [[Merino]] underpants and a long sleeved shirt yesterday :)
    • I caught up with [[Eerie Shell]] and [[Kris]] over messaging.
  • I say [[We Will Defeat Moloch]].
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-28]]
  • [[2024-11-27]] took place as well (linking it so I can then go node it :)
  • Interesting conversation in [[Agora discuss]]!
    • [[Zicklag]] wrote about [[weird.one]], sounds very cool, it would be great to catch up synchronously with them and [[Erlend]].
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-27]]
  • I woke up with a headache for some reason, and it came back during the day, but otherwise I was fine.
  • I worked and then attended the [[end of year dinner]] with my coworkers.
    • There was also a [[bowling]] afternoon event which I skipped as I felt I was too behind work and I wanted to use the opportunity to catch up.
    • Even as I decided to skip it I knew that, with the passage time, I would remember the bowling event but not the afternoon working. But I decided to do it anyway as I also knew my mental state would be affected by not making progress on some tasks, and I think in the end it was a reasonable choice.
    • I enjoyed dinner. I actually like my coworkers, I’m lucky in that (and many ways!).
  • Then I returned home and I played with [[Lady Burup]] and played the piano.
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-24]]
  • Still recovering from disease (flu? covid? unsure) with [[AG]] — but feeling better thankfully, both of us.
  • Ended up testing [[backup restores]] for [[social.coop]] finally and it felt great! It was in the todo list for long.
  • Not so much progress on [[work-work]] this weekend — which I know might sound a bit weird, why is it that I sometimes plan to work on the weekends? The truth is that some of the things I need to do I find it hard to do during the week for a variety of reasons, like meeting load. So I sometimes use the weekend to catch up. But when I don’t I have to at some point ‘let go of it’, else it weights on me implicitly.
  • Spoke to my mum over [[Meet]] and it was great!
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-23]]
  • [[23]] is [[Lady Burup]]‘s day :)
    • A chill day at home, with snow outside. I’m taking care of [[AG]] a bit as she’s sick.
  • Todo for the day:
    • rest :)
    • fix mastodon embeds in the Agora? they are still broken after most instances updated to 4.3
      • I didn’t quite fix this yet but I found two bugs doing this and made progress :)
      • First, social.coop embed.js had not been updated in years. We need a step to update static content when updating the instance! I mentioned it in the room.
      • Second, I filed https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/33049 against Mastodon. I don’t get how their "new style" embeds are supposed to work, embed.js seems a bit weird. Let’s see what they say.
    • work: on that work document at least for one pomodoro
    • work: book meetings for the upcoming week (see paper notebook)
    • social.coop: CWG oncall
      • Some spam reports.
      • No new registrations since yesterday.
    • social.coop: TWG next steps towards alpha.social.coop
      • Hmm, what does this mean?
      • I guess I should fill that form to get a VPS from iocoop now that we have joined! That sounds simple enough/fun.
    • write
    • read
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-22]]
  • back to the office finally, after a few days sick working from home! it was nice going back.
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-20]]
  • I’m [[sick]]. Nothing serious, feels like the flu. [[AG]] got it over the weekend.
    • Working from home and catching some [[Meet University]] talks, although today only until 16. There’s an all hands later I may put in the background; I told my manager I was low energy and would focus on resting half a day.
  • I cut my hair, which usually makes me feel fresher, and it did. I also shaved everything except my mustache, for [[Movember]] (is it still a thing? I think so)
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-19]]
  • [[work]]
    • I woke up sick but I worked from home anyway.
    • [[Meet University]] was good!
  • then I rested after work, ate something, spent time with [[Burup]] and caught up with friends
  • then I thought about:
  • [[cwebber]] joined [[social.coop]] earlier this week!

πŸ“… day [[2024-11-16]]
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-15]]
  • I [[worked]]; it was fine actually, I had a late review meeting (I don’t usually have meetings on Fridays) but it was interesting/felt worth it.
  • I met [[L]]! We spent some of the afternoon together. It was very nice to see her.
  • I then worked on [[social.coop]], scaling up (with [[Dan]]). Then I read/wrote/coded a bit.
πŸ“… day [[2024-11-11]]
  • I found a ‘task list’ (I have 7-8 at any given time, usually anything from a3 to a4, envelopes and forms and such that I reuse to write things to do later) which I sort of completed so I archived it. It had the number [[131]] on it, without further context, although it was close to a task related to Wikipedia in the Agora that I have advanced.
    • It is prime in case you’re wondering :) [[prime/131]].
    • Which reminds me about the notion of having prime/ be autopulled when n is a number. Hmm.
  • [[AlgΓΊn dΓ­a]]
  • Noding from [[paramita]] and from [[nostromo]] while I work on the Agora tonight.
    • I’m already showered and can go until the time I go to bed, probably early as I woke up at 6am due to double pages :)
    • I’ll enjoy the ride for however long it lasts!
    • I thought of [[2024-11-19]].
    • I thought of the future.
