Done Since 2018-09-16

Where the heck did this week go? Moderately productive, I guess, though I'm still worried about my ability to keep a full work schedule. The main things were a trip down to Rest Stop (the South end of the rainbow, in Seattle) on Monday, a take-home test for the job I had a phone screen for last week, and a physical therapy appointment Friday. My trigger thumb is, finally, doing noticably better. L is moved in, and most of her stuff is out of the cats' room. That's still going to become the guest room and office.

I made one curmudgeon post, a PSA about the latest Magecart breach, at Newegg. Used that to test cross-posting to computer-curmudgeon.com. Spent most of yesterday working on MakeStuff/page-to-template-data to make the process smoother. The ultimate goal, of course, is a script for cross-posting.

There was quite a lot of link-chasing, researching Javascript, Magecart, and Python; meanwhile I've been trying (with minimal success so far) to catch up on some of the fiction on my (DW) reading list. I try to stay current on the poetry.

The most interesting link other than those was this Linux status report by Linus Torvalds, in which he apologizes for his abusive behavior on the kernel mailing list, and says that he's taking a break from Linux to work on it. The last time he took a similar break, it was to write git.

I'd consider taking a similar break to work on my issues, but the main ones that need work are time-management and procrastination...
