  • Some people say “hack yourself” … create a TODO list in anyway you like. First thing on that list is to “create a list” and cross that off after you’ve listed some items.

    Keep the items small and doable. Going outside or watch a movie isn’t a “big” item but it’s worth on this list damnit!

    Don’t be down on yourself for any reason about doing nothing on the list. If you are, recognize that you did that, forgive yourself for feeling that way and try again. Feel free to throw out items and put even simpler tasks on it, if you can.

    Doesn’t work for everyone, but it does work for some.




  • There’s something really satisfying about running a script that you know would save time. Even if the overall time is probably a negative.

    I wrote a script that would log me into our AWS EKS stuff. I typically would have to copy these 7 lines and look up which cluster version I’d need. One of my lines just pulls all the clusters and I use fzf to select the cluster I wanted. Takes away all the pain and makes me feel smug. Love it.



  • I bought a nonstick wok and my friends kept using steel wool and chipping it and I kept freaking out on them about it. I’m like STOP IT, I’d rather it be dirty than this!

    They used to make fun of me freaking out about it.

    I feel a bit vindicated with my freak outs now.
