I removed nearly all the news and social media apps from my phone a month ago and wrote about it: derek.broox.com/blog/media-d...

Last night @kbroox and I had courtside seats to a basketball game where the score was 157-156, with 2 buzzer beaters in the last 3 seconds to flip the game back and forth. It was a very fun game.

My website has been slow as shit. My DB, along with many of its definitions are literally 20 years old, so I revisited it. 95% of the issue was poorly defined indexes and a couple bad query patterns that haven't scaled with my data. Duh.

So, remember to revisit your indexes every once in a while.

“Oh my God, you’re such a perfectionist. It’s exhausting,” Kari says to me, as I work on my chia pet.

Financial advisor just said that Kari and I have a 90% probability of retiring by 55 and continuing to live our current lifestyle… but that didn’t include any Ferraris.

So I apparently need to make some changes.
