2015.03.06 – A Bit Better Day

Jordan came with me to Mozilla since his class is now just open lab while the students work on their final projects. He’s trying to go through a Django tutorial so I told him I could help him out if he needed. I ended up having an early Vidyo meeting with Peter which was nice. He gave me lots of pointers to get me back on track so I didn’t sit and struggle all day. We also had a chance to mull over some functionality issues and I now have some things to test. Speaking of tests, he said I can enable the new Selenium tests and I don’t have to worry about Docker so that’s handy. I’d like to get this star thing done so I can learn a bit about Selenium.

Jordan stuck around until just after lunch and I spent the rest of the day working on getting my anonymous user view of starred events. I left a bit early so I could get home while it was still nice out and ended up just missing a Max going my way. I decided I’d take the bus and ended up just missing that too. I stayed at the bus stop though and saw probably 3 yellow lines pass by before another 35 bus finally showed up. It was beautiful out though so it didn’t matter.

I decided to give my brain a break and just read a novel until dinner. Afterward I hopped back on my computer to try and make some progress. I was working away when someone asked for help in #airmozilla-dev. Everyone was gone for the day and I would have felt bad just ignoring them so I said I was there. I had no idea if I could actually help them but I stopped what I was doing and tried. They kept calling me “sir” which I found amusing. I don’t think I was much help though.

Today I learned about these sweet vintage looking LED bulbs.
