Deer Strike
On Friday night we were driving to the cabin, and in a split second, a deer π¦ was in front of our Honda Pilot as we hit it at 45 mph. We had driven down to have dinner at Smoqehouse and were on highway 60 heading east, just a mile or so past I-35 right by the Dairy Queen there. Tammy was driving and just as the speed limit was going up to highway speed. Everyone is okay, and happily, the airbags didn’t go off.
Tammy slammed on the brakes, and the deer flew forward. It rolled and slid into the ditch about 20 feet and immediately leapt up and ran off when it stopped. Its legs were okay, and I’m hopeful that it either miraculously survived or didn’t suffer badly.
The car took a decent amount of damage but remained drivable. The radiator got banged up, and many parts of the front were damaged. All fixable but will be some expensive bodywork.
Iβve got Eero Plus subscription service on my Eero home network. Turned on beta ad and tracker blocking on the whole network. Working well so far. ππ»

Hugo just generated 8,173 pages in 2.4 seconds. Jekyll takes around 500 seconds to do similar. Whoa. π€―
Hugo seems like it would be superior for my website needs in every way. May need to dig in and make it happen.
After putting more complicated theme in Hugo takes 5.2 sec for 9,970 pages. Still a speed demon.

Fabulous agenda for Chaos Community Day.

Is Chaos Engineering related to DevOps the same way Extreme Programming is to Agile? Seems like it could be.
βSo we picked C. And then we realized we didnβt want to write anything in C.β π€£ @callmeforni
There should be a way to declare a namespace for @ references. Something like twitter:@ to steal from URIβs. Then microblog:@ could be smarter.
Next up Andy Fleener from local tech Sports Engine on Chaos Engineering.

When will chaos engineering have been successful? When we are comfortable dancing on air.
Fun to have this Erik Sletten painting back up after years! Just fits!
