What would you prefer as a structured data format which isn't entirely awful for humans to interact with? The condition I place on it is that as a human I'm not made sad. json, xml, toml, all make me sad. (YAML makes me _less_ sad, but not happy).

Pff, I'm still waiting for a new delivery window for a 'next business day' delivery from UPS which was posted on Tuesday.

I spent far too much of it on a nice car which I now can't go very many places in :(

Normally yorkies are individual things, I'll be interested to hear what you think :D
Heh, I've been following Zeeshan's work long enough to know I'm unlikely to fix anything scary :D zbus is very clever stuff.

Perhaps "If you have to ask what a full stack developer actually is, you are one" is the definition then?

Sadly in the 'real world' it tends to mean "Can write a web UI, but can also work on the API service which it talks to, and probably write the SQL schema that service uses" It makes me very sad.

To me, a full stack developer can at least *understand* and *modify* anything from VHDL/Verilog through bootloaders, kernels, low level OS code, middleware, services, UI, servers, etc. Also some ability to read/adjust schematics and hardware layout. To a webdev, who knows?

That's mostly due to my own stubborn idiocy though :D I slept in an additional 2.75 hours this morning :D
This is why I spend a bit longer on my AoC solutions than many (I never get on the leaderboard really) but I try and write code I *can* come back to and understand later.

Once again, @ericwastl made getting up during December that much more fun. Thank you for #adventofcode2020 Eric, and for those that went before. 300 club membership ahoyhoy!

I suppose if you're allergic to docker (I wouldn't blame you for that) You could just do it as Ansible, but that's not quite the same idea.

Well, your docker could combine all the tooling, a webserver, etc. And give you an "easier" to re-deploy container later. Rather than a set of cobbled notes to try and redo next time. I only think of it as essentially executable notes for deployment.

Sounds like a reason for you to write a Dockerfile :D Time to learn the horrors. Let them gaze into your soul.

I can't stand ASMR videos, they make my skin crawl and not in a good/tingly way :(
