- Elbow.
- Bloodwork.
- Walk-in, 8am when they opened. Took 45 minutes in the waiting room and 5 minutes of action.
- Made a quest account and downloaded the app, can now check results on my phone when they’re ready.
- X-ray.
- Walk-in, 915am a little after they opened. Took 90 minutes in the waiting room and 5 minutes of action.
- Picked up both prescriptions from yesterday.
- Applied the topical painkiller before pull day at the gym. Felt 1000x better. It’s incredible how much of a difference it makes. It’s incredible how muted my exercise has been for almost 2 years now. Cheers, looking forward to the permanent solution.
- Pinged and finally settled all Hawaii expenses.
- Refilled all powders and pills. Threw a lot out; all that’s left is turmeric and glucosamine. Once those are gone, I won’t reorder. I eat turmeric root directly and I didn’t find much benefit from glucosamine.
- Lamborghini makes an SUV called the Urus. Its MSRP is 200k. Crazy. But, given that 50% of vehicles sales are SUVs nowadays, I get it.
- Homemade protein bars.
- Required ingredients. Just 3. My homemade nut butter, oats, and protein powder. Mix in bowl with rubber spoon then chill in fridge/freezer and cut, or just leave in bowl.
- Optional: Honey, maple, cinnamon, cacao, coconut oil, the usual suspects.
- Now I don’t have to buy clif bars for post-gym anymore! That’s the very last processed item in my whole diet, now everything is homemade!
- Django crash course (traversy media: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1IyzVyrLSU).
- python manage.py [runserver|migrate|etc] of flask-scripts comes from django.
- Default port 8000.
- Can use jinja, but defaults to django’s own template engine (which is really similar anyway).9
- Comes with a lot by default. An admin interface. Gives a skeleton structure for views, models, settings, and more. Creates all the files for you, just leaving you to edit them.
- You can do a lot with django, but I still prefer flask for the most part.
- pgadmin (latest version: 4) is a much better tool for messing with your db than psql. Use it next time.
- Checked mail for the first time in >1mo. Got the replacement amazon card and activated. Also deposited the $14 treasury disbursement (I think it was a settlement from that credit leak?) using mobile checking which was nice.
- The pecans at costco are definitely the cheapest, at ~$8/lb. Bought organic pecans for ~$10/lb (from a company called I’m A Nut) on Amazon, which is worth the convenience of online + organic. This is on regular Amazon, not Fresh.
- Homemade tahini. Just like nut butter, but with seeds. Toast them, then process them. Add a little oil or salt if you want. So good.
- Bought new tupperware. Tired of lidless, wrong-sized options.
- Homemade kava. About 3 tablespoons of root and about half a liter (2 cups) of hot water makes a decent strength individual serving. Mix a little coconut oil in (the fat helps with extraction, just like others), then steep for 10 minutes. Then knead the tea bag.
- Supercontest.
- TNF verifications, first of the season. App behaved very well. Closed https://github.com/brianmahlstedt/supercontest/issues/64.
- There was only one issue. If thursday was picked, it would reject all 5 subsequent picks if you wanted to change one of the other four (which is valid). Fixed it to verify against the current picks.
- Closed the “before 2019 season” milestone.
- Chrome on mobile allows you to create desktop shortcuts from your current page, but that doesn’t work when you want the url pre-redirect. The trick to get around it? Disable wifi and mobile data, then the browser can’t follow the redirect 🙂 Then create the shortcut from the origin site.
