Made REPL evaluated code blink in #Emacs. The easy part copy-pasted from StackOverflow:

(defun blink-region (start end)
  "Make the text between START and END blink."
  (let ((overlay (make-overlay start end)))
    (overlay-put overlay 'face 'success)
    (run-at-time 0.1 nil 'delete-overlay overlay)))

I like writing tests with Phel a lot while I never bothered doing it much with #PHP.

Created a nifty #Emacs hotkey that switches from #Phel namespace to according test namespace or back, and now also creates new test file if existing was not found with skeleton namespace declaration.

Very advanced REPL experience on the command line https://github.com/openvest/repl-balance/ #Clojure. Jaw dropping after working with bare bones #Phel #REPL for last couple months. #Lisp #Emacs.

Thought to improve date input validation in PHP from a regex to constructing DateTime class with createFromFormat. Found that it accepts "2024-99-99", resolving it to 2032-06-07. Yikes.

Working on Phel (#Lisp) #WordPress plugin skeleton. #Github not recognizing #Phel as a language yet it weights being more of a Shell project than PHP with the development container scripts added.

Before starting to use self-hosted GlitchTip observability platform few months back I did comparison between features in some available tools.

SigNoz having logging and APM tools in same package gave a headache during setup and got settled with GlitchTip. Healthchecks is also running alongside side, and possibly adding Grafana Loki for log ingest at some point.

Have been a little slow publishing any photographs while transitioning from Capture One to ART (RawTherapee fork) but here is one edited aurora picture from countryside this Autumn during #Perseid meteor shower with one #shootingstar visible. It was fun event, taking shutter photos on tripod with 13s shutter one after another and trying to get best angle and composition until retiring for bed. #auroraborealis #starphotography #astrophotography #oaktree
