This pair of futuristic jazz/synth albums from “The Comet is Coming” has been getting a heavy run lately:

So good! #music

Never not awestruck by the beauty of Therion’s #music

Spent a good couple of hours barking up the wrong tree because I hadn't realised I needed to call Rake::Task["my:task"].reenable in between unit tests. #ruby

Been working on a subsystem of this app that needs to process millions of background jobs a day.

Initially I was using the same (Postgres-backed) background jobs queue for this as the other more general parts of the app, but it was getting SLOOOW.

Today I finally switched this subsystem to Sidekiq and it has immediately made everything so much better!

Thanks @mperham for a wonderful tool!

Stuck on this old, slow, pixel-y 11" MacBook Air while my MBP gets a top case replacement.

There's not a lot to love, but gosh it feels good to hammer away at the keyboard without worry.

Metroid Fusion is unbelievably tense and engrossing. What a great game!

You know things are going well when you write a test whose invocation deletes the entire checkout of your codebase.

Every talk has to start somewhere...

I am very much here for this album: https://music.apple.com/au/album/slice-of-life-2/1448634458 #music

My life is basically listening to https://music.apple.com/au/album/the-greatest-gift-of-all/1348627114?i=1348628131 on repeat now. #music

Professional Keynote transition maker

Must've lost it when Rdio closed down. *pours one out, and listens to the album for the 4th time today*

Also font editing

First slide deck for me that's required frequent usage of ImageMagick tools to get things done.

Soon I'll need to combine that with some custom Ruby for generated imagery.
