Daily Note 2024-06-23

This is a bit incomplete

But working on it as soon as possible, hopefully before Thurday.

Here's a quick summary of what's cooking behind the scenes today, June 23, 2024, alongside what's happened in the past two weeks:

  • Pardon the week-long silence on the daily journaling. Just needed a quick recharge as well for warming up Minecraft skills (currently in peaceful mode for a lot of resource gathering sessions).
  • Did a cleanup chore with my sister (since we share the bedroom space, which sometimes chaotic when comes to schedules on the study table1) on 06-22.
  • Here's what been cooked since last two weeks:

    • Officially brought the Bedrock edition on mobile (formerly known as Pocket Edition) for Android. Chaos at mining ensure, with my first death from falling gravel.2
    • Who thought you want to go deeper into Minecraft lore, via the Legends spinoff? Like literally watching the full gameplay for 2-3+ hours3.

  • What I have been listening to (check today scrobbles):

    • ....

  1. Currently planning on getting a new laptop for upgrades or get the screen repaired (*fingers crossed on shipping costs of the parts itself*) 

  2. There is second one, but I didn't count it yet since I pulled the quick restore backup action from world backups as part of my Realms Plus trial. 

  3. The full video is literally 6+ hours, so I do some skips to speed things up. 

May 2024 Monthly Dump (not finished yet)

Hello there, editor Andrei speaking on the line. This should be technically published exactly in the Philippine Indepedence Day, but since I am currently between a mini sabatical and EOSY rest for the next school year, I apologize if it took longer than expected. So I decided to publish it now from the backburner and finalize it later.

Hello world, and welcome back to the monthly dump/status update! Pardon the radio silence over the few months, I am just busy at school during those period, but since I am in the end-of-school-year break, we're actually back for at least two issues of this, alongside the daily journaling on my personal wiki Buckle up, since there will be mentions about Gildedguy Story #8 and you don't want to get snuck-up on, right?

By the way for the Agora community, I'll be pointing my notes here while keeping the old ones up as an archive via the new [[@ajhalili2006-archive]] once the patch for sources YAML file are merged upstream soon.

And since this is the weekend (as of 2024-06-01) to officially kickoff my mini-sabbatical between school year, this is the first edition of my monthly dump of the year, also known as monthly status updates if you keen checking the archives. So read on to know what I am cooking behind the scenes.

The Gildedguy Story 8 Premiere Experience

I literally woke up early on May 12 to catch up the Twitch premiere (original VOD link, archived in 1080p via Storj DCS) just few minutes before it start. Based on the first watch, not only it was another banger1 by Michael Moy and the production team based on what the community saying, but there are new lore have been dropped since Gildedguy Story 7. I'll be not able to take note them all here in detail, but please take a watch for yourself.

It's a blast after all, so grab your "I Was There In Premiere" badge for free if you're there (either via Twitch or YouTube). And expect a in-depth post on it and more on [my blog] later this month (or just before the next school year starts). If you need some Gildedguy Stories-themed mixtape on your library, I made one since March and currently open for song suggestions.

Chores on Personal Wiki

Look at those grouped tabs

Since this Material for Mkdocs-powered site started in last year, I am currently working to merge both the old digital garden and Jiroh's Kooky Insane Stuff into here, alongside an upcoming one for Traumatized Autistics Department. Due to how the content migration is currently underway, you may see this non-dismissable banner on the top of every page similarly to this one below (link to commit):

🚧 Wiki under consturction Please accept our apologies for any broken links while migrating content from different repositories. Learn more

But wait, what's Traumatized Autistics Department?

Here's the Google Doc for the project README (currently a public draft), but in a nutshell, this is where

Meanwhile in Recap Time Squad

In summary for everyone asking, just self-documentation, janitorial and admin work on Recap Time Squad lately.

Nothing too heavy other than bringing the Staff SSO terms and mini reorganization chores in our policy site, content updates on the Squad Wiki, and even setting up a brand assets repository to host our different brand assets as we export them from Canva, similarily to the cdnjs/brand GitHub repo and others.

Signing off

That's all for now and thanks for reading. Talk to you soon on the next edition, or read the archives for this year so far. For occassional chaos on your feed and for comments, follow me/tag on socials or send a e-fanmail.

Daily Note 2024-06-07

Here's a quick summary of what's cooking behind the scenes today, June 7, 2024:

  • Actually enabled comments for daily notes (currently on per-entry basis until meta officially graduates from Insiders-only status), using a self-hosted instance of giscus. You can try it out now below and it'll be appear in the andreijiroh-dev organization discussions in GitHub.
  • Officially installed Node.js into my custom mkdocs Docker image through copying files from the official Docker image (and some symlink trickery)
  • Yesterday, I added docs for golinks, will work on Content Migration status reports later in the weekend.
  • What I have been listening to (check today's scrobbles):

    • TTPD on Spotify?!? (interpretting the lyrics, ey? Also lurking around r/TaylorSwift for hints maybe.)

    • I may feel like a madlad lately, but I listened to the whole album in order (from a community playlist) for the full experience. As my older sister told me, I may become the first (and only) Swiftie in the family once I go deeper into the discography in the future.

    • Still playing some of Starcadian's music on loop, of course.
    • Fresh from The Vergecast: Apple's AI moment is coming at 40m55s (If they do AI-generated emojis as JPEG images through RCS at WWDC (some even shortened it as "dub dub"), that would be chaotically funny at same time bloody for Android users.)

That's all for now, see you again soon for another daily note. If I miss something today, I may edit this page or just add it for next daily note instead. Take care, and keep it decent in the comments.
