I know there are plenty of feels about Claude et al., but today I ported an advanced search feature from a 20+ yo Perl codebase to modern Django, and ... it just worked. In about two hours. It's been so fun over the past couple of years to make meaningful cuts into tech debt. #TodayIDid
Today at work I presented in my usual slapdash style in front of company founder, Tim O'Reilly, as one does. #TodayIDid
Today I sent the first rough cut of an obvious spinoff of my RSpec book to Leanpub; stay tuned 😏 #TodayIDid #IndiePublishing #Ruby #TDD
Yesterday I got clickable hashtags working on the Bluesky side of my little learning-out-loud app. This is the first time I've ever written a client for the socials; I had no idea that the bsky API was so complex. #TodayIDid
Today, I mean yesterday, I spent most of the day outside working on my little Victory Over Billionaires garden instead of sitting at a computer. Photos forthcoming once I add image attachment support to my little app. #TodayIDid

In today's #todayIDid news, I finished section 2 of module 6 of the #Scrimba FEDCP before work. Next I get to listen to #KevinPowell tell me all about CSS grid. I wish he was on Mastodon. Help me convince him to migrate!
