Currently struggling with my blog. A lot of things have changed since I started it (including getting a job in tech-yay!) and I’d like to keep writing, but feel like the whole nature of it would have to change…

I also don’t really want to write too much about what I’m doing at work- less out of privacy/security concerns, but more out of mindfulness of work/life separation
Oops. We’re a few days late, huh? Who cares? For a limited time, in honor of pride month all our sandwiches are gay as hell all throughout June. And before you condemn someone for their choices and say they’re going to hell, we’re in hell now & there is no heaven Eat Arby’s

Taking a QA class this term. Honestly don't think it's what I want to do, but spending the morning testing websites, and it's bringing me a really weird amount of satisfaction...

Bank restricts my employers name to 20 characters. Is your employers' name longer than 20 characters? (inc spaces and punctuation!)

Absolutely MYSTIFIED that one of the banks here will only allow me to open an account online during certain hours...? I... what??
Finished my first game on Steam today: Portal (the original!) now the question is do I go back and platinum it, or start on a new game??
This is the first class registration day in... 4 terms... where I haven’t sat by my pc hitting refresh! So happy for the approval system 😀
Started playing Portal for the 1st time, and feel like I finally get the hype!
Java project build path issues! Send help!
Changed mobile and found a bug? Evernote not letting me log in with my email (only gmail, which I don’t have an account with) feels like they’re holding my data hostage. Also feels like the last straw. Remembering the good ‘ol days before they cut services to free users...

When I first heard that cases were missing I thought “can’t be an Excel problem, the rows run out at 1,048,576 which is bigger than even total cases”. I never thought they’d have a case per COLUMN. Unbelievable. And yes: Excel columns end at 16,384 aka “XFD”.
In the UK the number of cases rose rapidly. But the public – and authorities – are only learning this now because these cases were only published now as a backlog. The reason was apparently that the database is managed in Excel and the number of columns had reached the maximum.

Still scary submitting the first assignment for a class: what will the lecturer think? Is my code clean enough? What if my logic is off? What if they don't like where I put the braces???
