/carry/ #
I try to keep a pretty light every day carry, but it never works out, keyfobs and headphone cases end up causing more bulk than I’d like, but My EDC is no where near the bulk I had as a kid with my cargo pants decked out with everything I could possibly need.
I hold no attachment to anything in my EDC. Nothing on my person has sentimental value. Anything I carry can be lost, stolen, or destroyed at any point in time. I pick things of sufficient usable, utilitarian, quality sufficient to work. No extra fluff.

I Built A Tmux Session Switcher #
I’ve been thinking about this for awhile now. For years now, fuzzy pickers and last session have been my go to. They have served me well. I can typically only keep so much in my head anyways. I’m often doing a hub and spoke pattern between main project, notes, and infra repo, maybe two projects. Don’t get me wrong, I regularly run with a dozen or more sessions running at a time, but only two to three are in my immediate context at any point anyways.
harpoon for tmux
press a hotkey followed by one more keystroke, currently any left hand letter SIMPLE, FAST, thats of utmost importance, what I want are sessions that I can can be assigned in order of importance from middle row, top row, bottom row.

First W In Brotato #
After having brotato and doing a few runs every once in a while I finally beat the most basic balanced run in the game! Wyatt wanted to play tonight and its such an easy game to jump in do a few runs and move on without getting overly invested.
Watching back I cannot believe how lucky I got, barely scraping by with 1hp at this point

I’m taking this as a reminder to treat every machine like its about to catch fire, any machine with a user regularly using it already has the match lit. I need to go through and commit draft blog posts, dirty homelab POC’s need to get out or get in, and not forever be in limbo. My efforts this year have been well intention ed to keep projects clean, on main, not dirty, but I think agents are making it worse before they make it better. I have some new ideas forming and old ideas for managing this have failed me.
Hank Greed made a really cool site to explore the Artemis II mission with Claude Code. Now this is what agentic coding is for, such a cool app to scroll around on and visualize when the photos were taken. Listening to the video is sounded really hard to get all of the data to line up correctly, between devices and timezones it ws not straightforward even though all of the schedules and images were made public.

markata-go now has web awesome integration for image compare. It renders a nice web component with a slider to compare two images.
It’s done with a class wrapper around the image components.

Without markata-go’s web awesome integration, the above would look like:
Jaime’s title hooked me in here, what guitar riff from Linkin Park had the greatest riff of our generation. Theres something about Linkin Park unlike Killswitch Engage, Atreyu, Avenged Sevenfold, bands I would listen to at this time that I cant remember a single riff, I can think of Chesters vocals, or the unique scratching they did, but mostly the songs were a whole piece. What riff is he talking about.
The very first note of “One Step Closer” plays and I’m immediately transported back to 2003 sitting in my garage watching HuevosIII on repeat. I can still remember the timing that Wes Miller did on the edit. I can see the riders I looked up to for so long riding in formation.
Turns out this riff is so recognizable it takes me exactly where I was when I listened to it hundreds of times.

Stow comes with a local and global ignore list that you can use to ignore certain files or directories.
If you put Perl regular expressions, one per line, in a .stow-local-ignore file within any top level package directory, in which case any file or directory within that package matching any of these regular expressions will be ignored. In the absence of this package-specific ignore list, Stow will instead use the contents of ~/.stow-global-ignore, if it exists. If neither the package-local or global ignore list exist, Stow will use its own built-in default ignore list, which serves as a useful example of the format of these ignore list files:

Casey had an interesting point here. I think demitri came back with some sense of sanity that its just not how corporations look at employee cost, but I still thought it was a head scratcher.
