This starts tomorrow, last chance to contact me if you're interested.
@[email protected] Hello! Quick question: I've upgraded from 1.0.5 to 1.0.7 and all my feeds are suddenly very slow (almost all loads time out, even with a single user active). Federation is fine. Any suggestions on trouble shooting what may have gone wrong in the upgrade? All migrations claim to have run, and there's nothing suspicious in the logs beyond the timeouts that I have seen so far.
@[email protected] Indeed. I remember a time when the point of rapid iteration was to get feedback and test ideas, rather then a rather bizarre goal in its own right.
Okay folks! Next week I'm starting online 5 week courses for 11+ year olds on writing #InteractiveFiction and creating 2D art assets for #GameDev.
These courses are good! They are not expensive! I've run them a few times now, so they're reasonably polished! I've just had a generous offer towards a bursery so I can accommodate one or two free or reduced cost places! They involve less exclaimation marks than this paragraph (disclaimer: may depend on the character of the students who take the course)!
But: next week. That means if this sounds interesting, you need to act reasonably quickly. Given the bursery this time around, please also share to people you know who would be interested but wouldn't normally be able to cover the ~£66.00 cost. More here: thinkersmeetup.com/scholars/...
Different bits of @VisualInk work best with very different storage patterns so I finally bit the bullet and wrote my own data access layer with... #sql. Did I get object mapping for free? No, I had to hand craft some code there. Does the new version have less storage overhead, safer migrations, transactions across multiple operations, and enourmously higher performance? Yes, yes it does. The API you can build with a #fsharp computational expression to make carrying the connection pool and transaction info is pretty sweet.
Now I just need to deploy it to prod before teaching the next course using it (which is next week).
Muhahahaha! Hack successful. By publicly announcing my brain was irrationally not doing a thing, my brain decided that was too stupid for words and now I have done the thing. I only procrastinated the five minute job for 6 hours, so not too bad at all.
I have one, simple, straight forward job that I was planning to do today. And my brain has decided it doesn't want to do it.
Ideally... I'll do the thing at some point. But the much bigger challenge is not trying to force it, which I know from #ADHD experience will just block me from doing everything else.
@VisualInk Also, achievement unlocked: I managed to write the word 'complement' in a public post without spelling it 'compliment'.
