Cycling I have been cycling a bit lately. I got into it last summer with Leah, but this summer I'm trying to take it more seriously. We go to a 7.5 mile trail near our house and do a lap or two a few times a week, and I go to that same trail 2 or 3 times a week without her to do 2-3 laps. Last summer when I started riding I was sitting around 12.5 MPH, which pretty quickly picked up to 13, but…
When I started my career in IT, it was via a contract gig for Kroger doing internal help desk for their internal store network (isn). I learned a bit about printers, handheld scanners, ZigBee access points, their lane queuing system, how to use PuTTY, and some Bash basics. After doing that for 6 months, I started applying for IT help desk roles. Eventually someone reached out to me after seeing my…

The past year has had great weather running the full gamut of what is enjoyable. Yesterday I sat in my office with the window open listening to One Dee Group and then Ah and playing Slay the Spire 2. I ignored my work for the most part. I tried to study for the GRE a bit. I did some more work in the Seth Braver book and then I read some practice problems for the GRE. I am nervous about studying…
The Context At work, I build VMs which become workstations for end-users. I am not an admin for our AD domain, so I have to use a tool provided by our AD team to join these VMs to the domain. This tool is a .msi which is available on an internal site. The Initial Look I ran into a problem with a few VMs last month where they weren't successfully added to the domain. These VMs were not for end…
I went away for the weekend to see some friends. I can't keep going like this. I know I always say shit like that, but it's always true. I have to exercise, I have to make friends, I have to be social, I have to eat better, I have to spend my life well. I can't stay here. Whether that's Ohio or the US, I don't fucking know, but I have to get out of here. I have to get the fuck out of here. I am…
I've been thinking about switching off VS Code recently. Zed came to my attention a while ago, so today I installed it. Initial Thoughts When I launched Zed for the first time, it offered me a choice of key-binding styles: VS Code, Vim, Sublime, some others. I chose VS Code. It also gave me an option to import my VS Code settings, which I accepted. It then opened to nothing, with some hotkeys in…
Am I Gonna Kill Myself? No, it seems unlikely that I am going to kill myself. I wrote up a long draft about killing myself the other day but the writing is so poor that I felt it should remain there. So I'm not even going to share my writing about killing myself, let alone actually do it. What Am I Reading? I started reading Philosophical Writings of Gottlob Frege the other day, which starts with…
i haven't been studying at all recently. basically since starting my job i haven't opened a book or tried to learn anything. i put some time into learning Go but i pretty quickly dropped that and i still don't feel comfortable working in it. i worried that starting this job would lead to my skills degrading, and that's been true: i have forgotten much of the Bash and Linux i once knew, and i have…
