Notes for week 25 of 2021
Week mostly spent on Graveyard with uneventful progress.
Random
- There is mRNA Melanoma Vaccine In New Clinical Trial
- Excel can be used as a painting tool
- I’ve learned about CUBBITT translator that seems to be superior to both Google Translate and at least comparable to DeepL
Graveyard & Django
- After working with React, it’s really easy to get used to hot live reload of the application and miss it elsewhere. For Sphinx docs, sphinx-reload is great for providing that experience
- I’ve been overusing reversing URLs in views instead of just using
HttpResponseRedirect(request.get_full_path())
to navigate to the current page (after form submission etc.)
Personal
- I’ve walked 25 km. I’ve been active for 5.8 hours during 7 activities. This week’s max speed was 10.4 km/h
- My life was slightly disrupted by having a tornado around. I live on the other side of the country, but this was one of the few events where I could not unplug from news, friends and checks
- Recipe of the week was Sweet and Sour Brown Rice Salad from Isa’s Cookbook. Because of it, I’ve learned about the existence of Adzuki and discovered I like them a lot. They are good as a lean protein during the heatwaves. I again failed to make a reasonable amount, so I guess this may be food for my next week as well
- I thought that I have an empty summer, and than I started to plan it. I am starting to be in a mild panic about my September
- I bought The Quest for myself and looking forward to the first game
- My partner haven’t saw BSG yet, so here I am, spending time getting more anxious for no good reason
Recommended Readings From This Week
- A 6-year-old just died of rabies. A vaccine could have saved him: I didn’t knew rabbie vaccine made such progress
- So you messed up. Now what?: JKM’s great series on estimating. And a brave story time
- Sinead O’Connor - Madison Square Garden: Strong story, strong performance, strong courage to stand against the crowd.
- Get Ready for Years of Chaos in Container Shipping Some industries have tanker-level inertia
