@mhoye Maybe it's just because it's Florida. What fraction of a box is it if there's a hanging chad?

The bag in box #2 appears to have a proper seal.

which is kind of silly if the bag does not maintain integrity.

Competition coffee arrived today. It's in boxes of vacuumed then nitro flushed bags.

Why is Shippo telling me how many packages I sent to Florida with a digit after the decimal point? Do they frequently arrange for the delivery of fractional shipments?

Expecting my competition coffee to arrive today. Unlikely to open that today as it's getting late in the day and I'm very hungry.

There was a 1 in the AAAA record that was a 2 in the middle of the real address.

Wasted a bunch of time working on a server issue. Discovered that somehow one digit of an AAAA record got changed (or the IPv6 address of the server changed by 1 digit in the middle, don't know which) and not everything bothered to fall back to to IPv4 (and the stuff that did, did so really slowly).

@deshipu@mastodon.technology Daylight does the saving of the time. Saving not as in hoarding, but as in liberating. What oppresses time? We may never know.

Got a couple replies to the mailing list message about the new book being out for technical review. One had a question if a topic was covered in the book and I was able to confirm that there is a section on that, but it's also a topic that I wrote about 3 years ago and did a video on about 7-8 years ago, so I linked both of those.

Eat moose and squirrel.

Also sent an update to the mailing list so people who asked for updates on my progress have an update now that there's progress. The next mailing list update will most likely be telling people they can buy the book, so anybody who wants to get that email should sign up at:

Got replies from 2 technical reviewers (sort of). There's an out of office auto-reply that lists today as the date he's getting back from the one whose business card lists the title "Evil Genius Coffee Scientist". The other reply says she'll look at it over the weekend because she doesn't want it to influence the coffee roasting manual she's writing. I've agreed to review her book when she's done with it and am looking forward to seeing that.

Links to the manuscript have gone out to people who have previously agreed to look this over. These are all people I trust to tell me if what I've written is total garbage, but I hope they don't.
