Clarity would've helped
Just a short one today, to catch up after yesterday's permissions snafu. I'm not doing very well. Could not concentrate on my work for the life of me. At least I'm not one of the ones thrown to the wolves now. Next month holds many questions, though.
I helped a colleague out today. That's something. Pointed out a great find in the cron.weekly newsletter I just subscribed to: ncdu. A bloody godsend for tracking down disk space hogs. #linux
I hope I can get it together soon. I've booked an exam for Friday, in the hopes that it'll give me some focus. I'm a Hashicorp Vault Associate, going for their Terraform Associate certification now. Enjoying the Pluralsight offerings — well, normally, anyway — more than the material on Hashicorp's Learn pages. I'm signed up with them until the end of the month; hoping I'll get some time to pick up something else — #Python, maybe. We'll see.
Sorry, this wasn't any shorter than yesterday's, in the end. Trying to decide whether I should work tonight. Probably, but I'd already sacked it off before I finished that sentence. I'm reading The Lies We Were Told by Simon Wren-Lewis at the moment; it's based on what I understand was (and continues to be) a very successful blog, mainly macro. I'm not far in, and it's great. But I'm also wondering whether I'm a bit too raw for it right now. Every day brings new ways this government is letting us down; reading about how nothing's new under the sun feels, oh, so heavy.
End of Day 2
