It’s not perfect, but easily the best choice
Morning deadlifts. 160kg x 5 x 2. 155kgs x 5 x 1. Still getting used to conventional and mixed grip.
Over the holiday break I wanted to learn how programming languages _actually_ work.
I implemented enough of a Lisp like language to complete the first day of Advent of Code.
File reading, sorting, name spaces, variables and even JS interop.

The extended fatigue from testing my 1 RM deadlift is nuts.
A week later and my legs are still getting tired from normal daily activity.

This is where I’d have some very good copy to get you to click on my blog teaching you about implementing user authentication

One of the hardest parts of living away from your birth country is missing all the relatives you left behind.
While my life here in Aus is infinitely better than it would have been in the US, I still miss them.
I look forward to you making a video and saying “I just said some shit on the internet and someone DID IT”.
Last heavy deadlifts of my last block.

Deno is quickly becoming my preferred JS/TS runtime. It seems so backwards to use node when Deno has backwards compatibility with all of NPM.

4883 lines changes for a bootstrap 5 upgrade.
Don’t do it.
I spent the last 5 weeks of my life upgrading a system from bootstrap 4 to 5 and it was a nightmare. Real legacy hours.
