Status: Did you know? Chrome syncs the disabled-status of your extensions. I was wondering where my shit went before I recalled that I disabled it on another computer (because I didn't need it active there).
GG Chrome, helpful as always...

Wow I sure can't wait to take a shower in 4 or 5 hours when my roommate finally finishes drying her goddamn hair.

Status: More rain. And I have no idea why. Like, it's raining twice a day or so, pretty much every day. Really gets in the way of taking walks or going to classes or whatever. Six times I have come out of a class I went into when it was dry to find out it started raining, and one of these days I won't remember to put my umbrella back in my backpack which will be a very bad time.

I bet you handled it with grace and tact.

I managed to talk the guy into my position. However he did the thing of saying "Well this is your responsibility then" i.e. I can blame you if things balls up.
"We should do X"
No, we should do Y you dumb fucker.
Fine, YOU do Y. We'll be watching.What did you fucking expect when you champion a product?
What a fucking cunt. No Blame culture my ass.
Hmm, I don't see anything in your attitude that would make people hostile or socially non-receptive of you.

I don't know how you manage to be indecipherable with simple text...
Attempting to adapt that into my current code results in the same "Here's a promise object thing as the result, have fun?" issue.
Trying to follow along here:
But it seems that none of the examples actually use the promise results?
Regardless, the code that calls the function that's supposed to return a Number (but is really returning a promise) isn't, and thus is always false immediately.

@tsaukpaetra doesn't the promise object have a property like value? Not sure, I got myself very confused when I tried working with promises and async/await.

In the console it does (in brackets), but I seem to not be able to really make use of it until it's resolved (or rejected, I guess), and guess what's not done?
I think I'll just pass on another callback to continue the results calculation and be done with it...

Call the
then
method on the promise and you get the result in a callback.

Is the second part of that sentence necessary? The @lucas1 post wouldn't have to enter the picture. You could learn a hell of a lot about social influence and political strategy. You'd just put your conscience on hold or whatever, since he's already dead.

Status: finally built a computer, but forgot that the motherboard doesn't natively support bluetooth or wifi, so I can't connect my awesome bluetooth mouse. I don't have any wired mice. All I have are crappy wireless mice with USB dongles, and at less than 4 feet apart the signal is crappy enough that the mice stutter and lag and drop clicks. Bluetooth/wifi adapter card won't arrive until Thursday and I refuse to buy one of those little USB bluetooth dongles. The nearby convenience store stopped selling wired mice years ago. If I buy a wired mouse online it'll get here like 1 day before I can use bluetooth again, so I'm just not even going to bother.
Also my headphones are bluetooth and the only wired set of headphones I have are PAINFUL to wear. I spent a full day wearing painful headphones in short bursts before I realized I could unplug the cable from the painful headphones and plug it into my bluetooth headphones without needing bluetooth... either way I've already tried to move away twice while listening to something and forgetting I'm tethered, thankfully the cable has just come unplugged but this is the reason I went bluetooth years ago after destroying my last wired set of headphones.
On the bright side, the computer works great.

Status: Moved most of my stuff to the new house yesterday. Still to do: Bring the rest of the stuff, setup the network properly so it isn't just my router's (increasingly flaky) wifi broadcasting from the basement. Most likely I'll end up with a mix of the existing network wiring in the house, most of which the drops are in inconvenient locations, power line and another wireless AP upstairs.

I swear to God my government counterpart has anterograde amnesia. A routine firewall change has been on the agenda of a weekly meeting for three weeks and each time we discussed it amiably. But then I actually submit it as a configuration item for approval and the response is "WHOA WHOA WHOA, hold off on the voting, we can't open a port from x to y (getting the source and destination completely backwards), this looks like a non-standard port (it's not), where are the updates to your network diagram (ugh), we're going to have to re-do all of these security checklists (we're not)..." Happens every. fucking. time. Makes it so hard to do my job.

I don't really have an update, I just changed keyboards and want to see if the wireless receiver will work with this keyboard more than a micron away. Oh look it was the transmitter on the old keyboard dying that was nice to know.
