All notes

Notes are for small posts, links, anything I don't feel merits a full post.

Well Kato refuses to go near the cat flap but it’s serving well as a window for all the neighbourhood cats.

A cream blue eyed cat looking through the cat flap. The same cat closer.

First time I’ve managed a 5k in under half an hour since I was a teenager. To most runners I’m sure this is nothing but I’m ecstatic.

I’m sorry to say it’s just a very ugly cURL script! It looks like this:

url="$(echo $note | sed -e 's|content|https://www.joelotter.com|' -e 's|\.md|/|')"

echo "Waiting for URL to become available..."
until $(curl --output /dev/null --silent --head --fail $url); do
  printf '.'
  sleep 5
done
echo "Page is up."

Had a very cute visitor today.

A very cute cat looking at us through our blinds. The cat on my shoulder. I decided his name is Salami. The cat on my shoulder in a slightly less convenient position.

A lovely day at the footy. 7-0!

The football pitch at Champion Hill.

Thanks! I’d heard a little bit about Astro but not really read into it - from looking at it just now I think it’s probably a bit more heavyweight than what I’d need. Additionally I’ve reached the point where anything running on Node activates a trauma response in my brain. 😆

Great spot, thanks, have fixed!

I am seized by energy and a desire to Do Things, which will probably translate to spending the day having choice paralysis and then Doing Nothing.

This was wonderful.

A lovely day wandering at Castle Ward.
