Good turnout for #nokings in Lexington MA to hear Senator Ed Markey speak!
@sil @paulfreeman I have a personal feed for the podcast I support on substack, but the same page for a newsletter I support doesn't have an RSS link. I do actually wish they had that as forwarding the email to my RSS reader is annoying.
@ceciliatan we left Newport at 6 and finally made it to our base camp near Concord after 6 hours, the drive was 2.5 hours this morning.
@ceciliatan we are heading up to VT tomorrow to get to totality, I hope we get an early start and that traffic is manageable.

@andrewfeeney @futzle My fix was in product code, it was calculating a 3 year processing window but didn't account for leap years.

It does make one ponder about really horrible date-based bugs that are lurking, I can only hope that such systems have more extensive testing.

@andrewfeeney @futzle The best thing was that I even fixed a similar date math issue yesterday but didn't audit the code base to see what would fail today. :)
@futzle Just spent some time this morning fixing "ValueError: day is out of range for month"

@glennf @dharrison @mwichary a very challenging environment that wasn't simple to figure out. My wife was very impressed with the amount of packaging that was involved.
