Only got ~5hrs of sleep after two double espressos yesterday, so I took a Lycopene capsule...signed up for a LinkedIn Premium free trial so I could send a message to a Kasikorn backend engineer to ask why users can't export their transaction history in CSV format...removed the 'Blog' link on nw.com b/c I don't have the WordPress blog up and I never really used the blog that much, added a link to my email address instead so people can contact me...started going through the Kasikorn API "Slip Verification" challenges...got the first one done...the second one requires I have SSL set up on my domain and not through Cloudflare...discovered while doing that that my whatdo site is returning a 404 if I try to sign in...got GoLand's db tool connecting to the digital ocean postgres db b/c I noticed that wasn't set up yet...install postgres on my macbook b/c something got messed up and somehow it seemed to not be installed...got all the db problems fixed, don't know how that happened...now having a CORS issue when running locally, all this stuff was working, IDK how it all broke...ok I remember now, I YOLO'd the backend code and disabled the existing router to get the Line echo bot working...sent an email to another local YouTuber to ask if I can be in a video with him...installed cursor and tried using it for a simple refactor task to get a sense of how it works...figured out a way (thanks to ChatGPT) to get the Line callback handler working while also not breaking the existing routes...went for a massage to give my brain cells some time to recover...used cursor some more and I get the hype, this is really cool, I'm surprised Jetbrains hasn't copied it yet...after a long while I finally got my whatdo backend working properly again (auth + user middleware working), it was a good learning experience with cursor and Go...got a GitHub Action set up so my DO dokku VPS will update when I push to main, so now both frontend and backend will update automatically when I push to GitHub...ending the day on this banger set: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2340… Tomorrow: I need to bill hours to my client to make $, I want to try to finish the KBank API challenge to see if I can do the Slip Verification, I want to email another YouTuber, if I have any time left over I want to keep going with that Line/ChatGPT bot and try to make a frontend interface for it.

done the basics for thisismynext.app, time to debug

Started working on my personal website #life

Removed Vuetify because 1) it was messing with my existing styling, 2) I think I may try to style everything myself, and 3) it's easy to add back later now that I have the commit. #rhymecraft

get started on #doneapp

working on my electron app #lab

Worked on a first draft of a 1-page "how to hire and manage remote workers" PDF that I want to start sending along with my resume and possibly also use as a marketing thing for my Wailes & Company remote work management consultancy idea...drank a double espresso ~4-5hrs before my expected bedtime, I hope I don't regret this...emailed another YouTuber but w/ a slightly different email approach...continuing to learn how to use Cursor, resolved a deploy.yml error by signing into GitHub after some Googling to understand what was going on...spent a while breaking up my backend code into sub-app directories as a way of setting the stage to work on multiple app ideas at the same time, and also to continue to build familiarity with Go since I'm still very new to it...spending the time after the caffeine high has kind of worn off (3hrs post-double-espresso) just thinking about what I should work on next...decide on some next small steps for tomorrow: 1) be able to query the Algolia HN API and get back the list of HN jobs, 2) set up a new db schema for the jobs app, 3) figure out how to best use ChatGPT to analyze the different job posts (individual queries vs. some kind of batch request).

Create Vue.js app #tlgrm

Started working on a demo app, to see what I need to build version 1.0 #securedfyi

#inpilot the transition to /app router is going ok... I'm starting with the website and once that's done (pretty easy, just copying components) I'll look into auth and everything else. I'll probably rebuild most of the webapp cuz it's bad lol

Added a link to the old (non-Vuetify) version of the app in the navbar so people visiting the site can still use the old version, and also just to get myself to start making changes to the site. #rhymecraft

🚜 fixed a few docs issues and started updating some templates to slowly switch over to TailwindCSS #djangopackages

pushed thru and got the version menu done with Go + HTMX + cookies instead of starting over with PHP since i have no clue what i'm doing most of the time. it may be small but it made me happy

Start working on a new template

finished a ton of work on a new project. Halfway done with the app.

Loaded the app with Vuetify installed and everything looks the same, which wasn't the case the last time I tried installing Vuetify. So it may be easier to do the switch than I was expecting. #rhymecraft

Added another dropdown menu to the Vuetify version of the app from the older version of the app as another warm-up task. #rhymecraft

Successfully changed the Gmail quickstart.go example to send an email instead of just print the user's labels...emailed WorkTime support my two local WorkTime directories so they can look into why I'm not seeing any data in the web UI...order more post-its and bic pens...added a button that, when pressed, sends an email with Gmail...definitely noticing myself becoming way more productive now that the sun has set and it's gotten significantly cooler outside...after literally HOURS of fighting with Go (and Vue to a lesser extent) with Cursor's sometimes-unhelpful suggestions, I FINALLY got PDF uploading working...next up is to send the email with that resume...
