    • FRIDAY THE 13TH.
    • Private work.
    • Atlassian buys loom for 975M.
    • Saw a taping of the It’s Always Sunny podcast at RCMH!
    • Amazon fresh reduced their free-delivery-threshold from 150 back to 100 (they just raised it to 150).
    • Ceiling paint in bedroom is bubbling and soft, as though water is leaking from the unit above me. Submitted request.
    • flask-socketio for client/server bidi.
    • Hydroponics.
      • Remember my tap in nyc is ~7.1 pH. The gardens should be ~5.8.
      • The v2 is ~10gal reservoir. The v1 is ~5. Each level adds another gallon. So totals are 13 and 8.
      • You’re supposed to put 1-2mL of pH-down per gal. So 1.5×13 and 1.5×8 -> 20 and 12. A teaspoon is ~5mL. So final numbers, by recommedation, for a completely fresh fill after cleaning: 4tsp for v2 and 2.5tsp for v1.
      • In practice, I’ve found this to still yield pHs ~6.3, so increase a bit. Add 6tsp (30mL) for v2 and 4tsp (20mL) for v1, if complete refill. If you’re only refilling half the water (weekly maintenance), halve that (or whatever other ratio).
      • Planted new batch. Tomatoes, cucumbers, gochujang peppers, chard, thai basil, stevia, peppermint, lettuce, marjoram, thyme.
    • Supercontest.
      • To get PRE request behavior (like linkbuilding with url_for, you have to use url params, not query params.
      • You could try to circumvent this by wrapping your request.args URL params logic inside a url_defaults function, masquerading them as URL values/params. But there’s no request in this context! It’s just a url_for call. So you can’t access them.
