I am also on the hunt for a good self hosted journal for life journaling (not note taking like some other links in other comments). Here’s what I am trying to replace:
I’ve been using DayOne without subscribing. I’ve had a lot of ups and downs with DayOne over the years, but I’ve finally found a way to use it with the free plan that I’m happy with, that kind of fits into a self hosted setup. I journal on my phone, and also in my laptop. I love that it captures location, weather, music, step count, and activity. After a month or so, I export the journal entries as json, and put them into a private hosted view and search interface that I’m in the process of writing in Python.
The DayOne journal data does not need to be synchronized to the cloud, and can even be encrypted by you, but who knows how much of your metadata is sent to them.
This setup is far from ideal because it’s not entirely private (metadata is probably leaking to the company), but it does have solid data liberation, is free (as in beer), can be encrypted, and the format is just json so it’s easily inspectable and transformable. It’s been working fine for me for several years (I actually have over a decade of DayOne journal history). It’s kludgy and not turnkey, so definitely not for everybody.
Side note for anybody who is using DayOne: I highly recommend making sure your backups are working, and saving a copy of the backup periodically. I store my exported entries in git and over the years have observed lots of instances of corrupt data due to sync problems with their sync server, which is another reason I want to move to self hosted.
Oh nice! I may have to drive there just to check it out. One of my wife’s and my favorite restaurants in SF was a Burmese restaurant called Mandalay.
There are pictures of the food on a long table and on the wall above it. There are little squares of paper with the name of the food, and things like “extra noodles” or “add egg” and “here or togo”. You get one piece of paper for each item you want, and then fill it out, and give them your stack of paper.
There’s a Japanese place in Novi called Nagomi that is pretty great. When you walk in it looks like you’re in the wrong place because what you see barely looks like a restaurant, just an empty event hall that is a bit run down. The ordering process is confusing to everybody on their first time, but it works really great once you figure it out. The food is awesome. My family goes pretty regularly. I love the pork misoitame, the ramen can be amazing on the right day, and I love the chicken katsu curry with cheese. Their sesame balls are hit or miss. They have a rotating selection of Japanese drinks, with ramune always in stock, and sometimes suntori nonalcoholic beer. They usually play funny Japanese shows with pranks or fails. It’s pretty common to see groups of con-goers dressed up after attending a con of some kind. Also there’s a public access RC race car track right across the street by the water tower, which is great for families to spectate at, or drive on if you remembered to bring an rc car.
Dr Pepper and kumquats.
We also have those in Michigan. When I moved here I was so happy to see them at most of the parks.
Remember what they say though: a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich. I’ll be interested to hear a more thorough analysis of the charges. Sadly, this stuff is rarely as simple as it seems.
It definitely seems abandoned. Here’s an issue in the GH repo asking the same question https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/issues/2453
There are 1.5k forks, seems like somebody could carry the torch forward if they were interested. Could be a good way to build experience and reputation.
You’re basically asking “do you check for red flags on everybody who is not raising red flags?”
In comment threads, I usually only check post history for people I am considering blocking. It makes sense to check post history if people are instigating. If that person is just starting shit everywhere then there’s no reason to listen to them, but if they have a history of reasoned discussion then maybe what they say is worth considering. (I realize how ironic this is coming from somebody who has almost no comment history on a new account)
Different companies have different broad cultures, and different subcultures within teams. Some companies just don’t have a sense of camaraderie built into their broad culture.
One thing that people don’t always understand, and I always point this out to people I work with, is that your professional relationships are much more important than the company itself. Everybody is going to move on from their current job some day. When that day comes, they will benefit from having strong relationships with past team mates, either by knowing folks who can help them get new work, or by knowing folks who they can bring in to tackle projects at the new job.
Your professional network is one of your most valuable assets in your career. The people you work with are real people, with real families. Relationships with great team mates are more important than the company you both work at now, and will outlast your time at that company. Camaraderie is key to that whole scenario. Make sure you reach out to people you respect and enjoy working with and tell them how much you value that professional relationship. You will both be better off for it.
