It was okay? But it really felt like a few late stage drafts and not a full technical book. I think I got what I needed out it; I'm happy to have read it. Also one of the authors died under tragic circumstances so who knows what future polish passes the book might have gone through, otherwise.
Dan and I came in third in his local pub quiz. Just wanted to boast really and if not here, then where? 😀
I set up coc.nvim for completions in Vim (especially Language Server Protocol support) and it's an amazing change. I've written a few days of Rust without firing up VSCode. Helpful while doing the 100 exercises which would otherwise require changing workspace all the time.
Also it's good with Python, especially when the Python code has type hints. Another +1 for typing.
I did some interviewing and it was pleasant but also the normal amount of anxiety inducing.
I do not feel super-motivated to work on making anything with code for myself right at this moment. idk why: I have been quite productive and motivated since March, even if I wasn't making massive strides. Perhaps because I am in a bit of an in-between state?
Rebuilt the Sherline milling machine which got damaged at some point and has been waiting in a box for over a year for a fix.
I don't really need it, but it's also not really valuable to sell.
Originally I was going to sell my large mill and move back to the Sherline, but I am not confident anyone will buy that one. So now I have two.
Decluttering my mind and also my garage continues. In some cases I've been able to just change my feelings towards a tool (like the milling machine: I don't want to create precision metalworks, but I don't need to get rid of the tool -- I can just accept that it's like a glorified drill press, and then I can happily use it knowing that not everything needs 25 microns of accuracy).
