*Playing Ghost Recon*
Friends: Can we finish this mission?
Me: JUST A SEC. There's an occlusion culling bug here. See? Stand here, then wiggle back and forth like this.
I returned six books to the library, and got six emails from the library, confirming the return of each book, individually
Dear library, I love you, but we can't go on like this
Take me down to the pair of dice city where the grass is *rolls, consults table* teal and the girls are *rolls, consults table* green?

Today was 50% troubleshooting random computer issues, 30% shopping for ππ π π€π₯π¦ππ, and a bit of Ghost Recon at the end. Back at it tomorrow.
So I'm in HipChat and I ask Sassy to look up "mass effect hold the line" so naturally she comes back with a white power meme.

Disk usage alerts in production? Sweet. That's what I wanted to do, today.
Twitter: The world is literally burning and we are all seriously going to die screaming.
Masotodon: Yep. Do your best! We believe in you! Do you like my art? You have such a great instance domain name!
WE ARE MASTODON.XYZ, HEAR OUR RALLYING CRY:

Some UX thoughts for #mastodev:

- Kinda risky to click on the Federated Timeline if it loads new toots and scrolls 10ms before I click on something.
I probably don't know enough web frontend to help, but it might be fun to try.
A short story about about content moderation
Wikipedia: you can't upload an image until you make 10 edits
Wikimedia Commons: if you actually find your way here AND figure out the UI... then sure, go ahead and upload something
So, let's see how cat pics works here...
I am still kind of baffled that, in the year 2017 AD, 'we don't have nazi's' is a legitimate selling point for a social media site. And, tragically with the appearance of Breitbart News, is actually not completely true.
Ok guys, very funny.
