Upward not northward!

The whole world trying to solve racism, inequality, and a pandemic. All I wanted was to get my #RaspberryPi set up as a web server. I don’t set my goals too high. #webdev #Python

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

I know it’s my fault for not investing in a real router. By why can’t I just set up a port forward on my device instead of going through your website #Comcast!?!? Now I have to rely on your connection to my device... #Unbelievable

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

Hate when you can’t replicate what you did a few years ago. Guess I’ll reformat my #RaspberryPi so I can get a #FreshStart from whatever I did before... #webdev #Apache

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

So is it better to deploy an app on #heroku or just use a #raspberrypi I have at my house to test... from what I understand you can’t upload files permanently if needed and I need to be able to store images.

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

sudo apt-get update just solves about anything doesn’t it! #RaspberryPi #Linux

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

Just one more feature to add and I’ll finally have what could be an MVP.

I also said that about the last ten features I worked on... #coding #webdev #Python

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

Got to the point where I have a feeling some #code will work and it seems to work in the console. But if I test it for real and it doesn’t work I’ll be up all night. Will have to revisit tomorrow. #Python #webdev

MS Word, only Word, printed squared number of copies. 2=4, 3=9, etc. but if change # of copies in printer properties it was fine. #Fixed by using different driver but seems like an #Office bug. #top10 strange (not difficult) #techSupport issue of the week #HP

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

So excited my order is now under 500th place in the queue! @thegamecrafter you guys seem to be getting the orders done fairly quick after the #COVID19 lockdown. Can’t wait for it to come!

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

When you have a problem and finally establish a possible solution, but you have to wait for the user to test. checking your email like... #HelpDesk #techSupport

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

So using url_for in #Flask also allows you to render images. This must be used because browsers are not allowed to read certain files from the local directory. (at least not normally) #Python #webdev #alwayslearning

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

In the end though, I’m glad it’s at least supposed to be on the way. #confused

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

First I’m told my shipment is on schedule and I confirm this through chat. Then I get an email that it’s delayed 30 days and basically nothing I can do. Today I get an email saying it shipped on time... why the back and forth #Lenovo!?

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

I guess in western PA the #pandemic is over... Traffic seems to have returned to pre-#COVID19 levels, people not wearing masks, and people not working from home. It’s like someone flipped a switch when going to the green phase... so strange

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

What a good day! A previously functioning part of an app was not working. I looked through my #github and was able to find what I messed up, copied a few lines and it is working again! #VCS #FTW!! #javascript

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

@Lenovo I did a chat online and was given basically no information on why it was delayed. Although I did a chat last week and was told it looked like it would ship on time...

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

Of course 3 days before my laptop ships @Lenovo says my order is delayed 30 days. I guess it’s happening a lot lately but don’t say it 3 days before it’s scheduled to ship and 2 weeks after ordering! Why can’t there be good things to post here...

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

@Ronald_vanLoon @futurism @enricomolinari @siddhartha265 @rubenroa @WSJhealth So with these boots I can run almost as fast as Usain Bolt? Well, I would say he could be considered superhuman

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

@Austen Experience: I’ve had nothing but success from @stickermule I wish I had more stuff to order from them honestly.

Nothing wrong: All companies are run by humans so impossible to do nothing wrong

[Nate B. @_mimic_octopus]

But it’s my fault for believing it would ship near the date it shows on my order... #CustomerService does not exist.
