I have a #bicycle #ForSale

It's a 2020 Kona Dr Dew XL. I bought it just before the pandemic and it has been in storage ever since. Perhaps 2-3 miles of use.

I'm asking $700 for it but open to negotiation. I won't ship it, so the buyer will need to fetch it from #OrcasIsland WA. #PNW

DM me if interested. I'd be happy to provide more information.

Deleted #AmazonPrime Video today. Extracting myself has been a bit of a journey but I'm feeling some pride and accomplishment from it.

Rewatching "The Wire" (last time I stopped mid-season-two). I forgot what a useful word 'mook' was.

I've continued to visit Google News for the last few years for its train-wreck-amusement value, always asking myself when this might cease to be a source of sordid amusement.

I think yesterday was that day. So here's to that.

I think discovering #BreakingNewsUSA might have been the final straw.

Another #LazyWeb question for #git and #DevOps folks:

Without using tags hence git-describe, what is the best way to count the number of commits since a file was modified on a given branch.

Part 2: same question, but don't count merge commits.

Hey #Ruby and #DevOps folks:

I have a maintenance project on some Ruby code that will require that I map files in a directory tree to a new directory tree.

There's no consistent global pattern, so the remap will have be by applying a set of rules. Overly simplified:

• Put msis in this directory into a new directory, except for msis with a filename that match some pattern

• Do the same but with dmgs

[[ etc ]]

I would like the rules to be declarative, obvious and easily amendable without baking it into the code.

The obvious, brute-force (my specialty) approach is to write the rules, iterate through each one, locate the matches and perform the actions.

This makes it O(n log n) which might be fine for this project but makes me wonder:

Anyone know of an existing gem that does this more efficiently?

(I'm also trying, because laziness, to not write this remapping code myself so even if the existing gem does it in O(nlogn), I may consider it.

I just donated to the #Wikimedia Foundation. They've always been important. Right now, triply so.

I was forced to construct a sturdy frame out of random pieces of wood and rope so I could transport the body overland on foot. It was literally a drag.
