Great job Firefly Aerospace! So cool watching you land Blue Ghost on the moon!

The idea of thinking beyond the next four years, while not ignoring how to limit damage during these four years, is a needed salve for many in the USA I think. One interesting take from a descendant of Roosevelt himself:

And a bonus post. For the AI curious in software development, I did a “rubber duck session” and Claude.ai found a typo, (had a - in one and a __ in the other between the words). I could not spot it for an hour. It’s a damned fine rubber duck IMO.

Two things. Update the MacBook Pro to a new m4 max monster. Why? Because I use them until they literally can’t do the job anymore. Loving it over the last two months. Well worth it.

The more I learn about Rails the more impressed I am with the framework for clean web development. Rails 7 is kilometres beyond Rails 5 and Rails 8 goes further. When I evaluated other frameworks I felt they were either “expose everything to do anything” or they were trying to be Rails. Huh.

Just appalled at our provincial government stomping in and screwing up a multi-billion dollar transit plan on a whim. They have recommended a foolish and damaging above ground route through downtown against a plan that was years in the making with extensive study, prep, and consultation. #YYC

Well gonna try getting into a posting habit. Been running my 2018 MacBook Pro a lot more heavily with system developmentnt of late. Fans really didn’t want to slow down. Decides it’s probably been a long time and might need to clean the fans and channels…. Uh. Yeah. Airflow? That wasn’t a thing.

A mighty fine first camping weekend at Brewer’s Campground.
