Day 17: intense
Didn’t time this photo well. There’s usually an intense game of soccer on this pitch most Saturdays. The Sunday crowds are a little more serene. #mbsept

Spent some time today building a site for my Go utility packages. A feature I’ve decided to add is a Go template playground, where you can test out Go templates in the browser. Not something I’ll use everyday but I’ve occasionally wished for something like this before. Could be useful.

Still waiting for the dream to be able to write code on an iPad. There are some good native apps out there for checking out Git repos and editing files with syntax highlighting, but I never use them because there’s nothing in the OS that integrates them all. You’re left with switching between them to do something in your workflow, which is disorientating as each one will take up the whole screen and throw away your context. I suppose there might be Shortcuts — I haven’t explored what it’s capable of — but what I really want is a shell.
The closest that worked for me is a Code Server web-app running in a chromeless browser. It works for me mainly because there is a shell. If the editor doesn’t support a feature, I can use a command to do what I need. I don’t have to switch between apps either: I can see what I’m doing and the files I’m doing it to. I can also build and run them code I’m writing. Fancy that!

Day 16: oof!
I can’t understand people that stay up until midnight most nights. It’s only 9:00 and I’m already exhausted. #mbsept

Day 15: red
Red mailboxes means the post will go faster. 😉 #mbsept

Day 14: statue #mbsept

Enjoying coffee and breakfast after a really early start and several weeks of hard work, with the satisfaction that the work is now done. Good feeling. 😌

Day 12: panic
There have been a fair few stressors in my life recently, both at work and personally. And although they haven’t got to the level of panic, they have been a little overwhelming. It’s hard to believe it in the moment, but I guess they will eventually pass in time. #mbsept

Day 11: retrospect
This photo taken eight years to the day: part of a Roman wall in Exeter, UK. #mbsept

Day 10: cycle
Bicycles at the station. Really need to get on my bike and buy one for myself. #mbsept

I’m no fashion expert, but I’m guessing that if you were to stand on the corner holding this sign, you’re going to stop traffic. #dadjoke

Oh, I’m having a day at work today. Everything’s broken, or not built right, and Slack has been pinging me non-stop with people experiencing problems. The original goals for today have been thrown out the window. I guess the only goal remaining is to get something better than it was yesterday. 😮💨

Day 7: panorama
Might go wide for this one. View from the Paps, near Mansfield. #mbsept

Day 6: well
Taken from the Churchill Island homestead. I’m trusting the sign here to be correct in it’s assertion that there used to be a well here. #mbsept

Day 5: forest
I consider myself extremely lucky to live near a forest reserve. I walk through it several times a week. This forest, however, is absolutely nowhere near me. #mbsept

Alternative Day Four Photo
I had an alternative idea for today’s photo challenge, which is “orange”. I was hoping to post a photo of something related to Melbourne’s busses. You see, PTV has designated different colour for different modes of transport. Blue for metro trains, purple for regional trains, green for trams, and orange for busses. And from my experience using the service, they’re pretty consistent with adhering to this design language: Anyway, they’re doing train works along my rail line over the past few weeks and this morning I noticed this sign (forgive the lighting, it was before dawn): Continue reading →

Day 3: precious
A photo of the Hope Diamond, taken while touring the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, in Washington, DC. #mbsept

I only just discovered yesterday that Feedbin has a read-it-later feature. The section only shows up in the sidebar after you add your first page, so I had no idea that this feature existed before I added one via the link popup-menu in the article viewer.

Day 2: buildup
New shed being built nearby to house the spoil from a new road tunnel. It’s quite large. I guess they’re expecting quite a large build-up of dirt. #mbsept
