.I've started working on a code editor that is a mix of a text editor and a structured editor. It is all text, but parsers and pretty printers allow you to work with a tree structure and not think too much about syntax. It is a work in progress. Code is here.

.I needed to submit some heic photos to a service that only accepted jpg. I didn't know about the heic format, but a little searching gave me a solution:
bash $ heif-convert bash: heif-convert: command not found... Install package 'libheif' to provide command 'heif-convert'? [N/y] y ... $ find . -iname '*.heic' -exec heif-convert -q 100 {} {}.jpg \;Written by Rickard Lindberg
.Today was the first day of snow this season. Not much. I'm looking forward to many more runs on a white trail.

.I've used testing without mocks quite extensively now. I've also used it in a work project for more than a year. My experience is that it's the best testing strategy that I've ever used. I've never felt more confident that my code works. I refactor code without fear of it breaking. It's so good.
