    Health, Academy, Pokemon, OLPC, Instant Pot

    Tuesday, March 31st, 2020

    Tuesday. (31st) Slept in a bit, then exercised as soon as I got up.  We took a trip to Academy to buy some essential sporting goods, and then Lowes to buy some more gardening supplies.  We played a little Pokemon while we were out, but no raids or anything. I worked on upgrading our OLPC XO-1 […]

    Work, Boredom, Bacon, PDF, Essentials, Halo

    Saturday, March 28th, 2020

    A great Saturday. (28th) Regular work day for me. I was able to get a host evacuated and maintenanced. This one had a bad stick of RAM. Of course, we use ECC RAM in all of our servers, but still, I wanted to get it replaced ASAP.  A new level of boredom. My next door […]

    Tired, Work, Garden, Zoom, TV

    Thursday, March 26th, 2020

    A good Thursday. (26th) Got up tired today, went to sleep too late last night. Regular work day for me. I was able to complete testing on the issue that I got solved, in our staging environment, so I started deploying to our production regions. Of course, I found another issue that needs corrected in […]

    Health, Work, Neighbor, Banana Bread

    Wednesday, March 25th, 2020

    A great Wednesday. (25th) Exercised first thing. Watched an episode of Knights of Sidonia season 2.  Regular work day for me. Work went well, I was able to complete testing on the issue that I got solved, and move it into our staging environment, where I was able to start testing it there. I didn’t complete […]

    Work, Costco, Supplies, RedBox, Dinner

    Tuesday, March 24th, 2020

    A good Tuesday. (24th) Regular work day for me, I was able, with our engineers’ help, to get my issue I’ve been working on solved! It took me three full days, but I have a much better handle on our container software, CI (continuous integration) system, packaging system, image build system, and dev environment. All […]

    Work Schedule, Stay Home, Prepared, Family, Movie

    Monday, March 23rd, 2020

    A busy Monday. (23rd) Today is my first day at work this week, since I’m working a Mon-Fri schedule temporarily to mirror one of our systems engineers schedules, who’s departing the company.  Worked with him, and the other Ops engineer who’s doing training with him this week.  We read that Bexar County Judge Nelson Wolff […]

    Friend, UniFi, Exercise Bike

    Saturday, March 21st, 2020

    A long Saturday. (21st)  We got up a bit early this morning to run some errands, I mean, to stay safely quarantined in our home. Called my friend for his birthday, he’s 50 this year. We had a good chat.  While troubleshooting an issue with my media server, I discovered that my UniFi Cloud Key […]

    Health, Work, New Things

    Wednesday, March 18th, 2020

    A busy Wednesday. (18th) Got up and exercised first thing. “Went” to work. Of course, I’m working from home, so there’s that. Found out that one of our most talented engineers is leaving for another opportunity. That leaves some opportunity open for myself and another guy on my team, though. We spent the day learning […]

    Health, TV, Work, Family

    Thursday, January 30th, 2020

    A good Thursday. (30th)  Got up and exercised first thing. Started watching a new anime, Knights of Sidonia. It reminds me in a good way of Evangelion, but in space.  Regular work day for me. I worked primarily on my secondary project, I was asked to write a blog post on choosing MariaDB or MySQL, pros […]

    Tuesday, December 24th, 2019

    A great Christmas Eve. (24th) Slept in a bit, but woke up very cold, I went to bed with too small of a blanket.  Left to eat lunch and run some errands, had to return an Amazon package to the UPS store for shipment back, do some last minute Christmas shopping, and pass out some […]
