Week Notes 25#28

• Got my hair cut - felt very much needed, as it was getting a lil' unruly, and it's nicer for the video podcasts I've been on recently
• A busy-ish week at work:
  • Lots of Decision Doc + Design Doc writing
  • And bits of playing around with Argo Workflows
• Fallthrough was fun this week - I was much more prepared and also less brain fuzzy, and generally feeling like I was a better co-host
• A couple of important calls have loomed over me this week, but both went well and my impatience / possible dread has been lifted
• But it was all OK and worth it, and given the news, celebrated with a Miss Korea takeaway on Friday (largely because Asda didn't have pizza)
• Perfect pizza - on Saturday 😱 On Friday, I went, and they didn't have our pizza bases!! Risked it on Saturday - around 1715 - and managed to get perfect pizza about 15 minutes before they closed!
• Tonight we went to see Tim Minchin which was fun 😄
• Morph's been quite needy this week - joining me for a couple of meetings, and Cookie seemed surprisingly OK with that
• Some bad nights sleep (Cookie barking, and it being a bit toasty)
• Back to crap weather this weekend, with a couple of soggy walks with Cookie
• Put my hat in the ring for the Changelog++ supporter game of #define 👀
• Fixed a few 404s that Google found on my website
• A catch-up with Alec was a nice way to end the week!

In oapi-codegen:

• Was an oapi-codegen day (from May/June) at work, so managed to ship a - long overdue - release
  • Thought I'd get this release out ASAP, given August is super busy, and there's a number of big features I want to get out there, as well as it being ages since last release (September last year)
• As is the duality of Open Source - within a few minutes of posting to /r/golang, I had two comments, effectively:
  • "Yay, thank you!"
  • "The maintainer isn't replying to me" (which is fair and understandable)
• Doing some more thinking about how we can better drive a balance between vocal users, priorities of the masses, long outstanding bugs/features, UX improvements, and i.e. work towards OpenAPI 3.1
• My post about "tricking" oapi-codegen into working with OpenAPI 3.1 was featured in Golang Weekly

In DMD:

• Made some good progress on my talk for Manchester Gophers
• Got Copilot to write a "format SQL code blocks inside Markdown files" which has been very nice for working with Evidence and has massively improved my quality-of-life

Watched:

• Squid Game
  • Making a start on season 3
  • Finally looked up simnida's meaning, hearing it quite a few times
• Schitt's Creek
  • Into the last season, such a good ending 💜
• Smartypants Presentations (on YouTube)
