Whee no code changes and (aside from the margin on the button) it's close enough

It's not perfect or HIG compatible but nobody but me will use it so that's fine. It's mostly going to be used on Android anyway.

Building a little personal app for myself with React Native, so I don't have to bother with Android SDKs, and it's so much faster to just toss some stuff together.

Can't speak for making a First Class User Experience because that's not what I'm going for, but this is still way easier and faster than Java.

Got Gatsby to work with Apollo to add custom GraphQL queries that hydrate in the server. That means I will soon be able to do real time push updates to the website, including for toot-style statuses that are either standalone or that belong to a post (e.g liveblog updates). Pretty cool. Nobody will find this useful but me, but still.

Paine Field Airport has tickets available! Looks like Alaska bought out Southwest's gate slots there too. https://blog.alaskaair.com/alaska-airlines/paine-field-tickets-on-sale/

I keep finding myself wandering over to iPad Pro reviews because I really want one, but it would be a barely-used device without at least a couple of these features.

- a desktop-class browser with an inspector and extensions
- multiple user support
- a modern launcher
- web development apps
- external storage support

Lots of types of pro work have become possible on iPad, like editing photos or videos. But software development is still nearly impossible on an iPad Pro, keeping out 20 million iOS developers and countless millions of web, server, and game devs. #Apple #iPad #iPadPro #SoftwareDevelopment #Xcode https://stevestreza.com/2018/11/12/software-development-on-ipad/

Built my first modular synthesizer! Already looking at ways to expand it. I love modular systems.

Toots. Whatever. My brain is fried.

JANET SAYS: Don't forget to CW your political tweets!

Moving from a semi-modular to a full Eurorack rig will cost about $370 after tax. This is just a box, power supply, power supply module, and power rails. Nothing to generate sound.

Once you have all that, THEN you can add modules that actually make sound. #modular

It really is terrible that iPads ship with locked bootloaders and no way even for enthusiasts to unlock them. Computing is moving to a closed model and it is a horrible regression from the open modular nature of PCs.

The Moog Mother-32 makes some delightfully strange noises.

Wasn't the ha-ha funniest episode but it had some really important bits of character development:

- We got to live the opposite of Eleanor's life with her mother in Patricia, which showed-not-told how shitty her upbringing really was
- Eleanor saw a truly awful person who she hated change to try to be good
- Tahani finally realized her rivalry with Kamilah wasn't really with her, it was against their parents

Tahani remains the best character in the whole show.

DuckTales is a great cartoon and you should be watching it
