Do you have any interesting plans for the weekend that are different from the day to day grind?
Weekend trips, meetups,side projects, or anything interesting?

Will I get to finally read David Graeber’s Bullshit Jobs? That’s my plan! Something something mice and men.
Casting a level base & moving a shed at a family member’s house. Planning out how to run cat6 (and probably starting to drill holes) through my house, as I need to get that all laid to/from the loft before the loft is boarded out at the end of the month.
May even get out for a bike ride at some point too, we shall have to wait and see.
I’m thinking of taking this online course https://www.coursera.org/learn/algorithms-on-strings/home/welcome
I like that they list the names of the algorithms plus what they do with them. Anyone not wanting to take the course can just Google for tutorials for them. Might be good ones out there.
I started messing with my dotfiles again, I already spent some time on my mutt setup this evening but it’s still pretty bare-bones. I’m not quite sure if I want to use mutt but I have used it a bit in the past and it doesn’t seem there is a whole lot of clients to choose from. I already sync all my emails using offlineimap so using a text based email client seems logical.
I’ll also be moving all services off a vps I have running on vultr to my one on hetzner cloud. It’s also running my PoC self-hosted email server so I’m seeing it as an exercise in thoroughness. To be honest, if it all goes wrong I’ll probably end up getting a fastmail account but I’d hate to give my mails up to yet another company.
Tomorrow I’ll going on a nice trip to the beach, I’m really looking forward to that. Spending time offline is something I should do more often.
I’m also starting a new book: ‘monitoring with prometheus’. I guess it still counts as offline even though it’s internet related.
By the way, if anyone knows a good time management book: shoot.
A pub-to-pub(-to-pub…) cycle ride tomorrow, and a band practice on Sunday. We’re playing a few workshops at Broadstairs folk week in August and this is the first time the whole band will meet… :-S
Tomorrow I’m hosting a dinner party, so I’ll be spending the day cooking. The theme is corn. Lots and lots of corn. Sunday is uncertain: if we get a chance I might be syncing up with the technical reviewer for the book and try to do revisions. If not, bike ride I guess
With it be maize with its many colors and nutrients? Or that sweet, designer stuff in yellow? ;)
Squanching. Then trying to find something worth watching until Season 4 of Rick and Morty.
