Today I made a mess of a git repo and had to restore to a previous good commit. I don’t do this very often so I was unsure how to do it. I made a bit of a mess before finally getting things back in order. So, of course, I wrote a new article about Reverting to a Previous Git Commit.

I recently posted a comment on Hacker News about my simple command-line todo list. A few people asked about it so I decided to do a write up. I published that on the Maker Voyage site I’ve been working on and also posted a Show HN.

Today I explored email sending tools. I want to send email and SMS so I think I’ve landed on Twilio Sendgrid. I added a short article to my site about Sending Email with Sendgrid after following their simple instructions for Curl.

I posted my Quick Calories app on Hacker News. For some reason I was nervous about this today. I post on HN pretty regularly, I don’t know why this felt different. There’s a nagging fear that I could fail. But, I threw it out there and I think I’m ready for whatever happens.

I finished the short audio book Permission Marketing by Seth Godin during a long drive this week. The book is relatively old but it was a good read and the main points have stood up relatively well.
