If you use a Repeater against a QAbstractItemModel and then remove data from the model, the delegate for that item automatically gets its index set to -1 and the item bindings get re-evaluated with that immediately before the delegate gets deleted. That's not the nicest design decision on the part of Repeater, but my code should have had the bounds check and there are workarounds for the other consequences.

Today's code edits involved adding a bunch of tiny little functions to support new features and adding a bounds check to a function that I'm amazed I wrote without one. Stuff mostly worked on the first try with the exception of the feature that exposed the lack of a bounds check (which worked once I fixed that). I also cleaned up some superfluous conditionals and did some other minor organizational tweaks.

Went back to playing Gundemoniums and somehow I got better at it?

There's lots of exploding happening outside.

Bottles arrived today, but no lids. Called back the place I get my bottles from and they're going to send lids. Fortunately, the three bottle sizes I buy all use the same lids so this isn't going to cause any production delays.

I've done enough test batches on the new sample roaster at this point that it's become clear that I want to adapt a program that I've been working on to do some of the work involved in designing roasting plans outside of their app and then get the data I need to efficiently copy in what I want.

I wasn't really looking for new features to add to that program, but I guess another use case that it covers at launch might be good for getting people to try it out.

Do you think anybody involved with that let me google that for you website gets phone calls from people asking them to google something for them?

Saved 81 cents on today's shopping trip because the person ahead of me had 81 cents left over on a gift card and decided he'd rather just hand that off to me instead of needing to keep track of it for a future visit.

At my shop if someone has less than a dollar left on a gift certificate I'll usually just ask them if they want the left over back as change rather than need to deal with it again on their next visit.

This is not my cat.

It's too hot and the cat wants to cuddle.

Amazon does this thing where they split the video royalty payments up into multiple regions and they each pay out separately. The terms when I was signing up for that suggested that there's a payment threshold, but they've never stuck to that so some months I get up to four separate deposits for as little as 1 cent. I'm kind of amazed they don't at least merge those into a single payment.
