Libreoffice's calc app has always been super slow for cells with BLOBS of text... turns out disabling spelling checks made everything super fast.

Been really interested in BPMN diagrams since I've looked into Camunda - but I've been wondering how to enforce BPMN as a contract/interface which would catch any drift in specs at Java compile time.

Excited to try `mimo-v2.6-flash` which is 4x cheaper and more performant than `minimax-m3` or `qwen-3.7` which were my go-tos for normal complexity tasks.

The Jev craze is pretty dumb: vibe coders didn't know about classifier models and think this abstraction over classifiers is 'revolutionary'.

Using monads in Python is good; adding contract enforcement on AbstractBaseClasses (aka interfaces...) sounds even better - PyContracts is a library I fully intend to use so I don't go crazy.

Turns out using FZF as your client for Taskwarrior is better.

Fight against technical word-salads.

The awful thing about Python is how everything is reduced to 'string-driven-development' ; the only mitigation against this is to use the better-than-nothing but clunky StringEnums...
