Spent part of yesterday afternoon and this morning fiddling around with a new project. I've spent the last _hour_ doing nothing but trying to get what I know is valid #JavaScript when interacting with #Sequelize to actually make it past the linter.

I'm really starting to believe that #TypeScript's juice isn't worth the squeeze. Maybe for a project that's written in TS or one where you have few dependencies.

I've pretty much wasted ~4 hours with absolutely nothing to show for it.

Friday night musings: is anyone building a decentralized task management tool built on ActivityPub?

All of the tools out there are either too simple or too complex. Every one of them has a completely proprietary API so you've got a ton of lock-in if building tooling around it. Feels like open standards could help.

Feels like something @sivy or @dansup might've given some thought to.

Today is the 45th day of the year. It also marks the 45th day in a row that I’ve meditated. A couple of days in January we’re just 1 minute, but it was still something.

My mood has improved during a time of year where the lack of sunlight normally saps my energy. I’ve started to notice that I’m aware of what’s happen, both good and bad, in near real-time.

I can’t recommend #meditation enough.

We have a habit of reflection on the things that have made our day good at my house. I wrote up something on that:
