Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, toasted slivered almonds, and blackberries; water to drink. Rode Muni to UCSF Parnassus. I heard a fan start in the hotel space which is my temporary office, and cold air blew on me the whole day. Gathered proposed images for the commencement web page. Reviewed and published an event for Alexa R. Rode the gold shuttle to a medical appointment, chatting with Tom K while waiting for the shuttle. Medical appointment went quicker than I had expected. Lunch at The San Francisco Athletic Club: salmon salad, water. The salad was delicious and was made special by the inclusion of a grilled lemon half which made it super easy to add lemon juice to the salmon. The salmon was a good size—a bit larger than my fist—and perfectly cooked and visually pleasing with crosshatch grill lines. Service was good but could have been more attentive. $15 before a $3.40 tip. Stopped briefly at Pasta Brothers, a new gourmet market filled with Italian dry and fresh pastas and other foods and cooking ingredients—a great selection. Rode the blue shuttle to Parnassus. Visited S960 and consulted with Lucia on ethernet ports in the student lounge. She also gave me a gift bag containing a small candle, two pill-shaped extendable pens, and a sticker saying Future PharmD UCSF. It was an extra left over. Edgar M was in the office. We toured other spaces on 9, many of which I had not seen in their most recent renovations. Along the way I also met and greeted Julia and Julie. Office hours event planning meeting with Anne and Levi. Watched Nano Text Editor Basics (pico) - How to Use Nano on Linux / Mac (Beginners Guide on Ubuntu 20.04) via SavvyNik on YouTube after seeing how it recently enabled James to edit files inside a Docker virtual machine where neither vi nor vim was installed. Why is paste Ctrl+U, though? Investigated the possibility of using LucidChart for our orgcharts. The upload-a-spreadsheet possibility is intriguing. I'll consult with Eric. Not sure if we can do this without a business associate agreement. Rode Muni home. Dinner at home with Patrick: muffaletta, water. Attempted to attach my previous Time Machine hard drive to the new computer and inherit its backup with "sudo tmutil inheritbackup" and this resulted in 'Unexpectedly found no machine directories for "/Volumes/[volumename]" during collision check.' This led me to enabling full disk access privacy for the terminal app I'm using. Trying again then resulted in 'Failed to inherit machine store at '(null)', error: Error Domain=TMStructureErrorDomain Code=7 "Structure has wrong type" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Structure has wrong type}' and at this point I gave up because the solution offered by klanomath on Ask Different seemed like more time than it was worth to me. I reformatted the drive as APFS Encrypted and started Time Machine anew. After dinner I made us aviation cocktails. We watched We watched Star Trek: Discovery s4:e13 on Paramount+ (season finale) then some standup comedy on YouTube. Patrick went to bed. I washed dishes.
