I have too much to do today because I was slacking yesterday.

Need to write developer docs for a system that guy leaving is handing over to me, I also need to write some validation documentation for the system that was supposed to go live in mid January 2023.

Doing some tweaks to my blog, mainly around publishing bookmarks and some refactoring to make merging GoToSocial into my fork less painful.

Publishing

I’m still mulling over what to do with what I write here. Do I go full [[digital garden]] and shove it on a static host somewhere (or next to my blog), do I publish lots of it into a river of posts a la Dave Winner. I can’t decide. I guess it doesn’t really matter, but it’s fun to tinker with this stuff, so I’ll have a play around with it all in the next few days.

Also still need to look at how obsidian deals with [[templates]] and such like.

Permission to dock

My [[Thinkpad]] dock (provided by employer) drives me mad. Some days the laptop will wake when I press a key on the keyboard, sometimes only when I press the button on the dock (sometimes instantly, sometimes after a large delay), sometimes I have to unplug to cable that connects the laptop to the dock and plug it back in, sometimes I have to unplug the cable and plug it back in and then lift the laptop screen and close it again.

It’s a great morning and post-lunch workflow.
