I had a horrible year at work. This was the first week of vacation until January. I’ve taken time to think about a new job, fix my CV, and just relax.

Programming@beehaw.org•A few times a month I write in a Work Journal
0·2 years agoThis is a great idea! I keep a personal journal, in which I also write about work but not to this level of details.
What I do is to have a repository with experiments and other documentation. For example, when I try new programming languages or libraries, I put it there. When I learn new commands or tricks with commands, I put it there. I sometimes just straight write some documentation about something I did or learn and put it in the repository.
The repository is then highly searchable, and it has been vital for my work life. I’ve been keeping it since school times, so it’s well over a decade old.
I had to watch a few videos to understand what I was suppose to do. Really didn’t get it at the start. But I think they also improved the interface and such.
Factorio just makes hours disappear, it’s an amazing game! Have you played the expansion?

Gaming@beehaw.org•TIL that Will Wright, while making The Sims, was inspired by Quake
0·2 years agoThis is awesome. He said indeed also that he had himself a lot of fun designing levels and places for video games, so he though making a video game out of the very process of designing a level would be cool.
A project from Will Wright that always fascinated me is SimAnt, a game from 1991 where you build an ant colony.
Deadlock
It brought me a new multi-player experience, something to share with friends, and it is super fun. I also don’t get toxicity out of it.

Oh man, I’m so sorry about all this! I can’t belive this thing about the therapists! Its always so hard to find a good therapists! It really shouldn’t.
You’re description of not caring enought to buy things on time but caring enough to yell at you really hits the nail on the head when it comes to asswholes in retail.
Christmas should be a good time, but so many people get so stressed. And the whole consumerism side of it is so bad. I wish you can go over it to have peace of mind after it.
