Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, toasted shaved coconut, sliced and toasted almonds, blackberries; hot water. Walked and rode Muni to UCSF Parnassus. Encountered a kernel panic in macOS in AppleAPFSMediaBSDClient upon opening my laptop. I have no idea why. Siteimprove linkchecking, spellchecking, and policy work. Edited a news story for Suzan. Followup with several Siteimprove issues. Followup with a facilities problem report. Katherine, Suzan, and I waited outside a classroom to hand out flyers to encourage students to follow our new Instagram account. Afterwards Suzan and I visited Kiyomi in OSA and chatted a while about various topics. Requested new badge access for Suzan and Katherine. Followup with computer order for Sabrina V. Prelunch snack: one nectarine. Fast, late lunch from Panda Express: panda bowl with half chow mein, half mixed vegetables, mushroom chicken; water from my water bottle. My fortune: You are open and honest when it comes to matters of the heart. Team meeting with Katherine and Suzan. Styling work in Drupal: accordions. Upgraded Docker Desktop from 4.33.0 to 4.34.0. Walked and rode Muni home. Dinner at home with Patrick: falafel in warm pita with tahini and tomato, hot water. Afterwards I Zoomed with Tina and together we walked through a set of Codecademy exercises. She is wanting to learn more about how to code. Codecademy kept disconnecting, and we couldn't figure out why. The exercises were cumbersome to complete largely because of the frequent disconnections but also because the course was not designed to work well with her MacBook Pro screen size. The exercise workspace was too small, and we were unable to see the instructions at the same time as the exercise. At the end of the set, I decided that what they presented was a dumb way to teach programming. I would not recommend Codecademy based on this set of exercises. I washed dishes. Late snack: a tiny piece of cherry-almond dark chocolate, sourdough toast with peanut butter, hot water.
