All of my talk of metrics, targets and Goodhart's law in a professional context, and like two weeks into trying to improve my fitness a bit without hyperfixating on the scale, I didn't suggest something to eat - not because it was 'bad for me', but because I was going to weigh myself in the morning and it would make THAT number look worse. Wouldn't have had the issue had it been one day later.

That's the BS that makes this unsustainable.

Urgh. My heart needs to change.

I'm kind of in awe (not for the first time) of my former manager, to whom I effectively owe all of the more senior part of my career, of whom I found out yesterday managed to get half of the office space they were in condemned on his way out of the organisation.

Still deciding what I think of #SweetTransit. It's not really a #TTD clone, it's really not a #RailroadTycoon clone - it feels more like a settlement building game (maybe with a touch of Anno?) with Trains in it. It feels nice, and credit has to go to the team for their #SteamDeck input support.

... I still want my Railroad Tycoon 3 spiritual successor though.

My tendency to use multiple desktops extensively, tabs in #iterm #neovim as a multiplexer, multiple iterm instances, multiple neovim instances in those iterm instances, tabs in browsers and multiple browser windows means my desktop is even messier than my real life one, and I frequently have the same web page or file open in three places that I've forgotten and then lost.

I uh... need a better strategy here.

Either that, or I accept that my use of computers reflects my #adhd.
