I should be able to finish my Crusader Kings III campaign today. It’s been fun. A big Star Citizen patch came out. I don’t think I’ll check it out soon though. Maybe in a couple weeks. It’s been historically buggy when trying to access things right after a release. Today’s goal is to sell some…

Just got done mowing the weeds. Work on the perimeter wall is scheduled to start next week. I’m glad we will finally be able to have some privacy. The fence was completely destroyed in the flood, and everything has been going into our yards: coyotes, raccoons, cats, dogs, children, everything. Today I’ll be doing some…

…sigh, lots of fires today. I don’t even want to talk about them. It’s fine. Next week is going to be a huge meeting week for me, as the company does its quarterly all hands. I’ll be organizing a party as well. We’ll be playing Lethal Company. I don’t feel like blogging/journaling today.

Well, I finished in fourth at the hackathon, which is lame because it has no prize. But that’s ok. I’ll still argue I squashed some of the most difficult bugs. The person that got first prize basically spent their entire day closing tickets as no work needed. Other than that, today was quite productive. Some…

Hackathon end. I wasn’t even trying in it, but somehow I was 2nd place at one point, and I think I’ll end up in 3rd place? Dunno. The prizes are $100, $50, and $25 gift cards. It’s alright but the prize is not a motivator for me. What is exciting is today’s footy matches. I’m…

Day 2 of the bug hunting hackathon. It’s alright. People seem motivated by it, though. Not my type of thing. I am keeping it in mind. Met with Liza yesterday about Fiber Club pattern sizing. Had a productive meeting. I have enough to go on with, but it will be an iterative process that we…

Today marks the start of our “found-it-pound-it” hackathon, which is a 2-day long bug fixing event. It’s quite boring… Wish my boss had at least gotten a little creative with it, but the extent of his creativity was “It’s Star Wars themed” and then threw on one Star Wars slide. One day I will be…

In case you’re wondering, no, Mexicans don’t celebrate “Cinco de Mayo”. Today is largely going to be a chore day. We just had a small rain, so planning on seeding a clover field and seeing what happens. Supposedly they bloom easily and require little water. Also doing boring stuff like mowing the weeds (what I…

I’m going to try to check out the SDFC block party happening in Chula today. Also, I’m planning on picking up some Mother’s Day gift for my grandma. Probably flowers. Other than that, it’s the usual. Read. Study. Code. Clean. May the Force be with you.

Just made my morning cup of coffee. Americano. Delicious. It’s finally Friday. I’m working on a mystery process that crashes in the middle of the night. I have some theories, but nothing concrete yet. Unfortunately, looks like the issue only happens in production. I think it’s some kind of resource starvation. I’ll figure it out.…
