Family guy and web developer
Drew’s played his first six holes on the course today from the shortened blue tees we have for our younger players. Despite the pouring rain, he played well and picked up some tips from Ethan.
It’s great to see the boys share an interest. Even with the age gap, they can always do it together.
We spent the day exploring the beaches and grounds around Culzean Castle today. It was such a great place to spend the day, and we also got lucky with the weather!
Had a great time yesterday at St Andrews. Got the boy’s picture on the Swilken bridge, walked along the beach, had one of the best fish and chips ever, and finally wandered around the ruins of St Andrews Cathedral. Next time we visit, we’re bringing the golf clubs.
Coffee on my desk, pen and paper ready, text editor open.
This morning’s goal is to get my head round Webpacker in Rails 6.0 and Font Awesome installed through Yarn/Webpacker.
A few pieces of the Webpack puzzle are starting to fall into place now. Got a few notes so that I don’t trip up on the same steps in the future.
Looking forward to my new development role with the NHS National Services Scotland in a few weeks. Time to brush up on the .NET knowledge again.
It’s never too late to start writing.
iTerm’s new status bar with configurable Python components should mean no more faffing about with Powerline in Vim.
Powerline is useful, but it can be a pain to configure and it takes up too much screen space as well.
Great night tonight. Some ten pin bowling with Jen and the boys and then a wee walk along the Clyde.
Despite only being a few chapters from the end of Cixin Liu’s The Wandering Earth, I decided to give up on finishing the book. The first few chapters were quite good, but my interest gradually waned through the middle chapters.
With my track record of books read this year being very poor, I’ve decided to read a book from an author who’s books I have always thoroughly enjoyed. Raymond E. Feist’s King of Ashes is the first in a series and hopefully, I’ll get to the end of this book and the rest of the series.
