One of my Synology drives has been reporting errors for a little while. I’m glad I ordered replacement drives last night!
I’m experimenting with Amethyst for the first time in quite a while. I’m curious if there are other good tiling WMs for Mac OS that folks really like these days? Any recommendations?
I currently have open browser tabs to Instapaper, Calibre, and the reMarkable 2. I should probably go for a walk.
I appear to have installed emacs again.
Backblaze entered this “freeze state” a couple of weeks ago and their tools to figure out what to do about it are sort of baffling. I’m supposed to compare my files to my backup state? All of them? How? For an indispensable piece of software, its usability is sometimes so disappointing.
I successfully made some small changes in a Shiny app to use the {pins} package to separate out a support file and data definitions from the app bundle itself. This lets me revise supporting information without needing to republish the app. It’s pretty cool! I’m excited to use the package lots more.
Just learned of {httr2} (https://github.com/r-lib/httr2), a rewrite of R’s httr package, and am excited to try it out! The pipeable API looks like a nicely improved way to build complex requests.
I spent a good chunk of my Sunday playing the brilliant Citizen Sleeper. It has this amazing balance of insightful and moving writing, tense mechanics, and gradually revealed countdowns to critical gameplay events. It’s really great!
