I made the chana masala tonight. Was great

+1 for Fira Code

This is the way.

Welcome aboard the good ship Tux 🐧

Yeah sounds like it was something similar. CloudFlare showed spikes in BGP announcements (the Border Gateway Protocol - basically how each network node knows it’s neighbours and the route through that neighbourhood) when the system went down. So Optus stopped telling the world it existed and everything updated around it, shutting it out from the internet.

I miss my mum. She’s been dead a few years now, and was elderly and in poor health. And I am a grown up. But sometimes I just want to be able to lay down next to her again and feel safe. I really miss her.

I will be ok. Just needed to tell someone. And if I tell anyone here in my real world they will want to make it better or something and it can’t be. It just is.

it is slow social media

Yeah good point. Which is good. It just takes some getting used to.

Thanks! Will do.

A little thing. I had a rest day today. Read my book. Watched some old tv. Felt sad but managed to get myself out for a walk. I am so terrified of slipping back into depression I struggle to rest. But I stopped and looked at my to-do list I made for the weekend and I did it all. And I rested.

Just wanted to write that down so I remember it’s ok

Fuuck. Yeah I think that might be the beginning

Beautiful summary. One of my favourite classics.Theres so much depth and the conversation about faith between Ivan and Alexie has stayed with me for years

Big hugs. Dogs are the best people. It sounds like you did right by him and gave him a gentle send off. That’s nice

Cool thanks. I will try to get there on the early side to be safe

Does anyone know how early to get to the airport for an international flight? I thought two hours would be fine but airline says three? Is it really that busy these days?

I am so out of practice!

Morning bacon. A big coffee and bucket of sunshine please

I am having a sort of low grade but continuous panic attack. I have a big conference coming up and I don’t feel grown up enough to network (even though it’s my job) and I have so much to do. Everything feels like a mess and I can’t seem to get enough focus to make any inroads on anything. I am scared of failing. I think I like things better when they are a struggle and I have nothing to lose. For once things are going well and I am so scared of stuffing it up.

Stupid brain

Code reviews, pull requests, sprint retros…these things exists because everyone makes mistakes like this.

You got this. I have committed to myself to go and get a proper checkup and bloods in a couple of months (life is HECTIC at the moment)…and I am kinda dreading the cholesterol readings. Got heart disease in the fam and I am getting to that age. See ya back here for boot camp in November?

📟🖨️💥💃💃

Looks like it

Good on ya for getting out there though. Hope you have a great day (I am feeling heaps better after a big sleep. Sometimes I just need a reset.)

Rough day today. But I didn’t drink with you today. Bout to go for an early sleep instead. Just taking it one day at a time. Focusing on little healthy choices. How are you doing?
