That sums it up well.
I’m all for research, it’s good to have proven methods to say “hey, this is not healthy”. But this is a no brainer. I always assume that even a healthy option at a restaurant is worse (high fat, high salt, high added sugars) than anything I’d make myself.
Nobody is kidding themselves into thinking any of these places are healthy.
Personal project: trying to get OP-TEE to work on a rpi3. Seems like there’s some known issues in my way of success. It’s annoying. But once it’s working, I’ve got some experiments I’d like to try out.
I love coffee. I started with a French press, then moved to an areopress, then an espresso machine. I still use all 3, and experiment with what beans are best brewed with the different methods. Very fun hobby.
I love tea as well. But it’s to relax after a stressful day. It’s a different vibe for me. I usually go for tisane or a mild green (sencha).
The act of making coffee, opening the bean package, grinding the beans, preparing the brewing method, brewing, cleaning up, then enjoying the coffee is very zen for me. It’s like practicing mindfulness.
I cannot have coffee after like 1pm without it keeping me awake. And I certainly would be climbing across the ceiling with 5 mugs of coffee.
Got back from vacation yesterday. Today, the Blue Angels are practicing for their show (exhibition? Not really sure what they call it). Super fun to get to watch them play in the sky all day.
I’d really like if this line of work wasn’t completely doom and gloom all the time. I’m burnt out of telling people what seems like extremely dramatic, doomed scenarios of the “state of security” all the time. I feel like I’m always the asshole in the room all the time.
I’m assuming any risk management or actuary job is similar. It can be soul crushing sometimes.
Funding was cut by 20%. So I have to figure out what the team can’t get to.
Super fun. Also, I’ll probably start looking for something else. This stress is not worth it.
