I “released” some containers last night. Several infrastructure bugs meant that I couldn’t attach any JIRAs to the release, so they’re not closed, and I can’t pull the containers from the registry. So if you can’t pull a container, is it really there?

@neil we could quibble on “you know me”, but the rest is fine.

Ender 3 v4 looks interesting

What are the odds of Apple unveiling a mini iPhone again this year? It’s been awhile.

The number of static site generators appears to be increasing faster than the number of blog posts

Finished “Robocop: rogue city” so I uninstalled it. Then I thought I’d check out the art book, but it’s “DLC”, so the steam client will only let me download it if I reinstall 30G of game first. (I’m fairly sure there’s some obscure runes to download the “depot” to work around this)

Plugged my synth back in. That’s a start.

@fred @metacosm ha ha it’s okay. 8u hasn’t had the benefit of lots of the improvements to this stuff that have landed in later versions. It seems pretty hard to convince the test suite not to fork one Java instance for each core I have. The trouble is I have a lot of cores

@fred @metacosm no I’d celebrate it if it happened to me ;) my current status: repeatedly OOM and hard locking my workstation trying to run jdk8u tier1 tests

@zhenech argh!

@zhenech oh cripes. Mine is still there, albeit I can only access it about 50% of the time

@mjr pretty similar! definitely got a cold but possibly compounding hay fever. getting stuff done though which feels good

@metacosm sorry to hear that :(

How's your friday going?

Got four out of 5 of the awkward screws out of my printer heat block. The last one could probably be cut if I can’t turn it. Assuming I’m sacrificing the heat block.

Now THIS I can get behind. I might take my iPod to the ice rink

New blog post: Digital gardening
https://jmtd.net/log/gardening/
Where I ponder the notion of a digital garden, versus a blog, and point at some recent changes I've made to my homepage which are not blog posts. #meta #web
