• Order PC parts.
  • Maybe order PC parts for Timmy, too.
  • Actually I need to review his list first and make sure everything seems cromulent.
• Take a vacation from SA this weekend because I need a dang vacation.
  • There was like all this stuff to do this weekend.
  • No. I want my weekend.
  • I might even poke Factorio code this weekend. But I don't want to do any tabling or go to a dumb meeting or waste any more time reading MB87.
• Do something with your vacation. I guess do whatever you feel like. After all, it's a vacation.

Work #1: I helped Nick do a thing, and I helped Don do a thing, and I merged Don's stuff, and Nick's stuff it turns out we don't really need to do that right now anyway, so we're tabling it.

Work #2: I want to refactor terrain generation so that I can play with different algorithms. Everything seems unnecessarily coupled together right now. Next time I go through it I should take note of my thoughts and e-mail them to Kube (and Rseding).

I might do that this weekend, but I might not. Because I'm on vacation.

I also might go support the ATT workers' strike. If I feel like it.

Oh yeah, I was going to write about feeling floaty/uprooted/detached. I think it's because I've taken on too many things at once, but also because those things specifically involve a bit of confused floating around by their very nature. Those things being

• familiarizing myself with Factorio's terrain generation code, and
• familiarizing myself with the ETL stuff that Dennis created.

Because I'm taking over both of those things.

I messaged Teddy that (A) I'm on vacation, but (B) my contribution to Sunday's discussion (in reference to MB87) is that "The great social breakthrough of our time will come when someone finds a way to balance informing people of how to effectively fix the world while not coming off as paternalistic (and/or offensive)."

Other stuff to do:

• Read a book.
• Go for a walk [in the Arboretum|around the conservancy|around town] [with Sara|Timmy|...].
• Drink some tea.
• Build some little LED lights to put around the house.
• Put hooks on stuff. Like under the soffit. If I go shopping I should get some S-hooks and/or carabiners while I'm at it.
• Clean the house a little bit. Like maybe sweep the floor. It's kind of grungy lately.

That's all I can think of. Apparently my thoughts are all to-do lists. Also I just ate some Chunky Monkey ice cream.

Okay, time to go home.
