I Hope This Email Finds You Before I Do - Last Week in AWS Blog www.lastweekinaws.com
I Hope This Email Finds You Before I Do I Hope This Email Finds You Before I Do Last Week in AWS · lastweekinaws.com This post was filled with real life, snark, entertainment, feelings. I get a lot of these emails that claim they can change my SEO game if I give them 500, for a site making 0, Link partnerships from small startups. A lot of these are so automated that if I do respond I dont even get a response. I’ve responded to many simply asking what is this about, I get 10 others just like you a week. Can you tell me what exactly you want and what each of us benefit from it, how did you find me. All normal questions, they almost always result in crickets, no response, maybe its time to implement a Billie for more snark.

I really wish I would have got this right a few years ago. Theres a couple of flags I had to use to get mdformat to do hard wraps at 80 characters and not wreck tables. This mix of flags and plugins is workign really well for me so far.

mdfmt() {
    uvx \
        --with "mdformat-ruff" \
        --with "mdformat-beautysh" \
        --with "mdformat-web" \
        --with "mdformat-config" \
        --with "mdformat-gfm" \
        --with "mdformat-front-matters" \
        --with "mdformat-wikilink" \
        --with "mdformat-simple-breaks" \
        mdformat \
        --wrap 80 \
        --end-of-line lf \
        --codeformatters python \
        --codeformatters bash \
        "$@"
}

And as pre-commmit.

What no one is talking about is that Deegs doesn't get the red plate without Anstie on the ground. ![image](https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/6cf67bcf-5111-4ee0-892e-0407eb1acdbe.mp4)

Heringbone Fingerboard
I just finished up my latest 6 ply wood fingerboard. I used scraps of purple, blue, red, and gold from the first 5 boards I built to make this pattern.

Dont Trust Users Tokens

User states: Upon picking up an old project and trying to install pip says “cannot find a version to satisfy” I’ve got this, I’ve had this a hundred times before it’s a python version, a rogue package, maybe a yank from the pinned deps. I pop open the project get us on the same commit. I get a different error, make a few updates and we are good, except the user gets the same error from the start. They never saw the error I did, and my fix did not magically resolve their error. We circle all the things it could be for hours. I consistently wipe my venv, and recreate with ease, send them the commands I ran to no avail. Something is up and I can’t put my finger on it. We’ve checked all the things and inched as close as we can to running everything exactly the same. Os python version Network vpn uv version Nothing makes any sense. Finally I throw in the towel, is it the artifact server. I forge a token and give him one to borrow. BAM it works, like magic. The first sign of progress. Then h…

Hollow Knight: Silksong by Ceen in 54:55 - Awesome Games Done … www.youtube.com
What a goat, speedrunning silksong at a competitive pace, live, with live audience, while co hosting, and raising $2M for Prevent Cancer Foundation. CEEN moves in ways that do not compute with my brain, everything looks so simple, things that take me so long are done in a few swipes. Watching this it really make silkspear look OP, this thing does so much damage if you never take damage and can use it continuously without needing silk for healing.

Reflections on 13 years and 1,000 posts of writing on my blog hamy.xyz
Reflections on 13 years and 1,000 posts of writing on my blog - HAMY hamy.xyz The answer is I do it habitually. If there’s a big enough idea I’ve had floating around in my head and I think others might find it useful / interesting then I usually think it’s worth logging it somewhere. If I don’t, I’ll likely just keep thinking about it so might as well get it out of my head and on the internet where people can find it. hammy This is how you do it. If you want to do something, you need to make it a habit. Something you crave, something you need. I need to write my ideas down in this blog, it helps me index ideas for later, but more importantly it helps me flesh them out and think through real things. Congrats on 1k, your site is awesome Hammy
