Update 116: Self-hosting update: the backup ran. The restore drill did not. Guess what I am doing tonight.

The Bussum version of this story is even weirder. (73)

Come to Oostvaardersplassen tomorrow, we can debug it on a bench. [120.4]

Stopped using a CDN in front of a static site. Latency went up, bills and mystery headers went down.

Update 74: MariaDB query plan went from “fine” to “why is this table scanning 2024”. Indexes are a lifestyle.

If you only read one kwet this week, make it the one I am quoting. (301069)

Officially: we are looking into it. Unofficially: yes. [120.5]

On it. I will check the probe from Stedenwijk when I am home. [13.1]

Found a bench in Almere Poort that is not next to a speaker. I am not telling you which one.

That pothole ate my pump. I am taking this personally. [120.6]

Update 75: Quiet evening in Lelystad. Someone is practicing saxophone and they are almost good. Rooting for them.

Not sure this belongs in a public space, but the technical bit is fair. [13.2]

Work identity thought of the day: private spaces should leak nothing. Not even the joke.

Update 76: Registrar panel just showed “pending” in four languages. Internationalisation of despair.

Seconded. Also: hydrate. You sound like you have been in DNS for six hours. [13.3]

I had the opposite experience in Leiden. Maybe it is a platform thing. [13.4]

Three herons at Markerkant. They looked like they had a union.

Update 77: Reminder: the off-leash field by Zwolle is closed until Thursday for maintenance. Use the dune path.

If it flips to complete with no mail, that is still “success”. Quiet success. [13.5]

I will not start another side project this month. This is not a side project, it is a test fixture.
