Weeknote for 5/28/2023

Housekeeping

πŸ™„

Despite purportedly being on a summer housekeeping project, I did no housekeeping except to replace my carbon monoxide detector. It beeped to let me know it needed replacing at 9:30 at night. So I ordered one to pick up the next day and spent a cold night with the windows open in case of a freak CO incident.

Productivity

😎

Bing AI has been helping me code some small productivity tools. The main one is a time announcer using AutoHotkey. It speaks the time every five minutes to combat my time blindness. AutoHotkey and the Windows text-to-speech feature are a mystery to me, and the chatbot gave me a running start in working with them.

I’m putting cooking on pause while I continue my quest to carve out time for my projects. My latest experiment is family size frozen meals. I still have a few meals to cook before I start on those.

Programming

:thinking:

My software development notes are on hold, but I snuck in some work anyway. I explored requirements management tools and the idea of writing all the requirements as acceptance tests.

Nature

πŸ˜‰

During a spontaneous second walk on Saturday, I caught on video the elusive jumping fish of a neighborhood pond.
