Today’s supermoon marks the sixth lunar month of our super Taavi Lua, who is hard at work on talking and crawling.

Taavi’s face is not a square, but he can produce a decent approximation.

New favorite thing: put my ear to Taavi’s chest. He gets to grab my beard and hair; I get approximately this view, plus a derpy grin.

Taavi’s first conscious experience of a Residence Inn. Perks of his previous visits: stay free, check out late, recall warm fuzzy memories.

Today: appreciation, pairing, Taavi floor time, nap, first swim lesson, family walk in town, dog walk in neighborhood, baby nap on shoulder.

Soon this apparatus will be less useful for sitting and more useful as a temporary jail with a crinkly-sounding thing. https://octodon.social/media/B3CNVs5m4unxGC9XcJ0

Daily averages over 45 days:

- 25 lines of C
- 1/45th email sent via my SMTP AUTH code

Seems small, but a few minutes ago it was 0 :-)

Well this was a satisfying commit: https://github.com/schmonz/qmail/commit/8d12a5c276628c1f80981402c0350b2e2330e32d

Ophelia, bereft, died "incapable of her own distress." May we be capable of ours. Try Medtner's "Ophelia's Song": https://schmonz.com/2007/02/12/medtner-skazka-in-f-minor-ophelias-song-op-14-no-1/20070209-medtner-skazka-f-minor-14-1.mp3

Out and about, pokin’ around Hoboken.

I'll be spending Yom Kippur writing tests for code I just wrote and thinking about who I've wronged.

Taavi has entered the squawking phase, as babies traditionally do, to summon birds and (if at all possible) dinosaurs.

My SMTP proxy now has all the behaviors I want. When they're controlled by a config file, it'll be time to ship. https://gist.github.com/schmonz/6d8da539a5a43e99d5ad5810cde05b22#file-qmail-fixsmtpio-c

Strange: sporting events include the national anthem, of course they do, and we have a hard time listening to folks who that doesn’t thrill.

The smaller my time-slices get, the more I can’t afford to defer #refactoring. Unpaid debt charges interest on every little slice of time.

What I'm doing now: family, travel, code, maybe lining up a job. https://schmonz.com/now

Next: parse requests a little, pick an SMTP verb to intercept, respond directly.

Nextnext: intercept the verb iff told to by a config file.
