This is one of those feature areas that's really been kind of stagnant even among competing programs over the past couple decades. I think other devs just haven't been putting any thought into how something that on the surface seems obvious and boring could be a lot better.

Work continues on porting over a feature from one of my dead end prototypes to the current code base. The 1.x code presented less information in more space and I've really enjoyed using the reorganization of a bunch of related features in that prototype so it's something that I definitely want to keep going forward.

I kind of wish the most recent espresso grinder had another digit or two on its shot counter. It's overflowed its 4 digits at least a couple times now in the past 4-5 months.

Detoured to another small feature that I suspected I'd be able to slam out quickly while I wait on other stuff. It needs a little more work, but today's work solves what I consider the biggest blocking issue to getting the new version released and I know my staff will appreciate the change once I get that deployed for them and tell them about it.

Finished up enough of the code I've been writing lately to meaningfully test that. Needed to fix 1 assert failure (iterating over the wrong list) and missing breaks in a switch (really not sure how that happened) but otherwise that chunk of code worked fine and I can move on to the next thing.

The update does not include a new award that some listing site invented to try to trick people into thinking they're relevant.
