- Merged identical google contacts. Added Savanna/Charlie/Grayson bdays to google calendar.
- Interesting, an article debunking fasted cardio: https://medium.com/@straighthealth/does-fasted-cardio-work-48fce94c2d75.
- Saw Doctor Sleep last night. Was great.
- Spaced repetition has been proven, time and time again, to be the best way to retain information and improve memory. I need to start re-reading my blog again.
- Self-hosting.
- The DO droplet is sitting comfortable at 75% mem and 70% disk.
- It’s 1 shitty (v)cpu, 1GB mem, and 25GB ssd. $5/mo.
- Under any duress, this cloud server falls over and I have to restart my containers.
- For next year, as the app scales, I’ll self-host. I can set up a permanent rig for <$500 with 10x the performance. It’s $5/mo, or $60/yr, so if it lasts the better part of a decade I’ve broken even financially for a much better machine.
- Will require me to use the registrar (godaddy) for DNS, rather than DO.
- I can bring my bmahlstedt.com containers back up with the extra performance room.
- Will have to implement another monitoring solution. Basic metrics (cpu/mem/disk) and email notification. Sensu, another; there are a million.
- I can also get much better internet at my next house. No cable, no phone – just fast internet.
- Created the ticket: https://gitlab.com/bmahlstedt-group/supercontest/issues/135.
- Jcriss jits in long beach. UFC in moscow.
- Instagram gonna start hiding likes. Good. Hide followers and everything else too. Influencers need not be given a notorious platform to contribute nothing.
- Ironic that Adam Mosseri drops this news the same week as the Logan Paul and KSI 2 fight, two humans who have become famous for said trivial superficiality.
- I really should open a restaurant:
- Going to rerender the bacon and rib fat for injections on the upcoming turkeys. There’s probably 16 ounces.
- Early UFC days were insane. No gloves, no weight classes, a guy wearing a gi, blows to the back of the head, hair pulling, terrible strategy, towel throwing, terrible commentary, stomping. Incredible.
