I can't believe my youngest slept longer than 5:45 AM! I was able to collect my first AoC stars in bed with her sleeping next to me (she has a built-in proximity alarm which goes off if I'm more than 15cm away from her), with laptop on min brightness and keyboard light switched off

I miss teaching sometimes, so I volunteered myself for tech mentoring at work. That's a great way to not get rusty with my teaching skills but also with the skills I'm trying to teach. I did a nice session today on git log and my students were amazed at how powerful of a command it is
