• New season of castle rock. This one follows annie wilkes, the bipolar nurse from misery who killed the author.
    • House of Spirits was cool, but the most shocking part was the SURPRISE full nudity. They didn’t even warn us.
    • Riding 100 down the freeway, on the ducati, in the purple suit.
    • Router/modem are overheating in the cabinet, gonna leave the door open.
    • Talked with bmanning about matlab/c bindings. They have a product called Coder. Functional verification still needs to happen obv, but syntax conversion is automatic.
    • Music.
      • Kanye released a new gospel album today? It’s called JESUS IS KING. It’s garbage.
      • Old creed. Great. Old eve6. Not as much. Old rob thomas. Not as much. Vertical horizon was pretty good. David Gray and Howie Day. Meh. A little too soft but ok for background I guess.
    • Supercontest.
      • Fixed the consistent-width cols on all-picks. The logos in the headers had removed min-width.
      • Distinguished the finished games from in-progress games by color stripes, not border. If the game is finished, it’s the solid color representing the result. If the game is still underway, it’s the same color but a white band in the middle. Looks really good.
      • Made the legend look a little better, touches on both sides and white bg / black text in the middle.
      • Combined both instructions/legend buttons, on all views, into one single help collapse.
      • Converted all my inline styling to custom classes. Some basic ones already existed in bootstrap:
        • white-space: nowrap -> text-nowrap
        • rgb(225, 225, 225) -> text-muted
        • display: none -> d-none
      • Went through and checked for any inline scripting as well, and handled it.
      • Did not minify or bundle the css. It’s only like 50 lines.
      • Scraped all templates for common macros I could abstract out.
      • Scraped all js for common functions I could abstract out. The biggest one was colorPickCell, which contains the logic for checking game status and coverer and stuff to determine how to color the cell, red/green/yellow, and the in-progress band. This included two other helpful functions isGameUnstarted and isGameFinished.
    • Used the vitamix for the first time today. It makes a whole world of difference. So satisfied, shoulda bought it years ago.
    • TSLA jumped over 10% today. BTC over 40% too (so dumb).
    • Shorting kinda defeats the purpose of investment, ya? Tribute to the fact that the market is really there for gamblers, not for supporting good ideas financially.
    • Warriors got killed by the Clippers, but it’s game 1 and the Clippers are champion contenders.
    • Amazon’s switch from 2 to 1 day shipping increased revenue by 24% but increased shipping costs by 46% also.
    • Bootstrap source css, 10,000 lines: https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/master/dist/css/bootstrap.css.
