@rafial I definitely don’t need another keyboard, but it sure would be nice to get one of these where I can change the switches.

@rafial It could! I’ve been fortunate with the Model 01. The keys take a little more work than I prefer, but nothing has broken. Then again I haven’t exactly been 24/7 * 365 with it.

One thing I’ve noticed using htmx, with its strong emphasis on graceful degradation, is how rarely I need htmx or any kind of client-side logic in my Django app. Learning loads about template and view organization.

Obviously if “loads of client-side logic” is a requirement, you go with that. You need Google docs? Use a client framework! But so many Web apps don’t need to be Google docs.

Use a clean structure, throw in htmx or whatever for some shortcuts, and that’s it.

Writing and testing a new deployment flow takes a bit.

Multiple Python libraries rely on Rust now. It’s messing up my deploy and annoying me.

First on-the-clock test of tldr.

I’ll keep it.

Today’s big accomplishment was fiddling around with Fabric enough that fab staging deploy is a thing I can do from my laptop.

Which is — you know — fab. It’s not CI/CD yet but I can do this even when the repo server is being difficult.
