I'm writing #jinja2 in a Word Doc to auto-create templated docx files today.
Did anyone ever tell you Word is a terrible IDE? Yeah, they were right.

How's your day going?

I just realized I said this in a call to answer "Hey JJ what's up?"

Oh hey, yeah I'm building #nethack in a #python container to run on my proprietary enterprise #OpenShift cluster.

Holy hell, I didn't realize how nerdy I was till I said it out loud.

Just watched Star Trek:β€―Strangeβ€―Newβ€―Worlds and the Enterprise finally got a proper upgradeβ€”sharp writing, swaggering Spock, and a crew that makes the final frontier feel like a weekend road trip. This show is stellar!

If you didn't know there are 3 different types of #github action runners.
The free tier, self-hosted, and GitHub-hosted. The API can report on both self-hosted and GitHub-hosted, but not the free tier, it seems. Even though the free tier _is_ GitHub-hosted.

Guess which one I need information on?

Honest question: Does the Trump administration consider the National Weather Service and the FAA to be the same organization?

So #mkdocs vs docusaurus what do you think?

Terrible Python Code, that doesn't do anything. It looks like it was written to be filler code on a cartoon but no one bothered to change it.

What's stopping you #python #program like this?

Ok, so scratch that, all I needed to do was `podman build --platform linux/amd64 blah blah` and it seems to have worked. (οΌβ€Έαƒš)

IBM Developer IBM Developer is your one-stop location for getting hands-on training and learning in-demand skills on relevant technologies such as generative AI, data science, AI, and open source.

How are you spending your Tuesday? Me? Ah yeah, I had to rediscover how to cross-compile containers with #podman on a Mac M3 to deploy on an x86 #OpenShift cluster. Yeah, you know a good time.

Thank goodness this was here; otherwise, I wouldn't have figured it out.

That moment when you do your #vim macro once, then do `99@a` and it does exactly what you want. :chefkiss: no better way to start a Monday.
