Was a long time Twitter user. May come back at some point. For now though, exploring things at mastodon.social/@kadedworkin

Chatting with friends about the new acts in town for Pool Party season here in Vegas. I’m not over the moon with anyone who I haven’t already seen while living here. Friend pressed on who I could see every week if they had a residency and I didn’t bat an eye and said @BeckyHill

Been a very interesting ~10 days off Twitter. I fear for the platform the same way I fear for Twitch. Lots of friendships built over my years on each but I’m starting to wonder if they aren’t so polluted that I’m better off just jettisoning both from my day-to-day life.

Grateful for a week that was “in flow” all week. From code projects to strategy sessions to emails to potential vendor partners, just a really solid week. May have taken 3 months for me to get truly settled in Vegas but if it’s gonna be like this, this was worth the move.
Another day where all inboxes are zeroed, new tech that I’ve been working on have gotten better, fewer things on my todo list than started today. Plus, I got a solid workout in and read multiple chapters in multiple books. Starting to really feel that I’m hitting a stride.
There is no question that I am markedly happier when all my inboxes are empty, the various code queues all have zero things waiting to be processed and my to-do list is time bound to actions done in the last 7 days or to be completed in the next 7.

Hi there @StateDept Trying to renew my passport online last night and this morning. Getting this error repeatedly. Any timeline if this will be fixed in the pilot program time and if so when?
Just finished doing a data analysis that I'll write up tomorrow morning. Had some fun with this one. Clear I'm getting pretty good at writing Django ORM queries to get data all in the right buckets before final processing.

Seriously considering combining some of the things I did in last week’s work mini-project with a project I worked on pre-pandemic. Could be really interesting.

8.5 hours total sleep, more than 3 hours deep sleep and heart rate back where it should be while sleeping. Seems like after a rough 40 hours after the medical stuff, things are snapping back. Still not cleared to workout until tomorrow.

Super sore given all the medical stuff from yesterday. Near zero deep sleep last night. My TENS machine is getting a work out today to try and loosen things up.
Getting ready for bed and the rundown of everything I did this short week (doing medical stuff tomorrow so took the day off) and holy crap there was a lot of positive motion. Some pieces fell into place after weeks, others it was years of slow effort paying off.

Watching the final episodes of #WelcometoWrexham and enjoying what @VancityReynolds & @RMcElhenney and team have done with the show. Only question I have is what kind of spin would @garyvee put on a show like this to document the beginning of his time owning @nyjets?
Well the micro-project I've been working on the past two days has all the major deliverables crossed off. I have some file management stuff to clean up on Monday but that's simple enough to handle. Big wins today on multiple fronts.

Well that was a really positive first day on this micro-project. Got about 60% of everything done. Have some fun with REGEX tomorrow after my morning meeting and then another new library to do some final processing on things. Overall, very likely this is gonna work as anticipated

Taking a couple of dev days to build another one of my Frankenstein kind of tools at the day job. These are fun days of code. Small problem set, no scope creep, new Python libraries to play with and a potential to save a significant amount in expense.

Starting my day with a half hour of reading while still in bed has been for my mind what working out before sitting at the desk has been for my body. Big recommend.

Went to bed super early because I was exhausted. Stats verify that was the right move.

Excited that this week I get to finish one project, finish a feature on another and that I’ve carved out 2 days to “just experiment” with a new piece of tech to see if I can improve a process that’s both time intensive and costing more than it should. Have a good week folks.

Grateful for a good chill weekend. Needed it in many ways especially since I expect next weekend to be not that way.

Today is day 15 in a row of working out… decided to splurge with a full brunch at home. Hot sausage links are underrated. Partnered with a pair of fried eggs and a couple pieces of toast. Good stuff.
