I cloned a repo with a couple of files that were duplicated because of case sensitivity. Git was nice enough to warn me about them, but I couldn't remember which files where an issue.

Two of them became a problem and were fixed, but I was sure there were more than two when I cloned the repro.

I found this excellent script to highlight and fix the problem files: git-detect-case-change

My playoff Mona Lisa.

I was 5-1 last week on the money line. I sadly picked the Bucs not because I thought they would win, but because I despise the Cowboys.

With the spread, I was 3-3 with the Ravens and Bills (and Bucs) letting me down. The Bills inparticular cost me nice tease I had no business winning anyway.

Week 2 Pics:

• The Chiefs like to play with their food, so the -9 scares me, but I think they are going to be ready. So I will take the Chiefs to cover.
• Eagles need to make a statement. -7.5 feels a couple of points too high, but lets roll with the favorites.
• Bengals - I not only expect them to cover, but I think they will win.
• 49ers - Have I mentioned how much I hate the Cowboys...the Eagles and 49ers are on a collision course. I expect the 49ers to win by much more than 4.

I was unaware of Rails support for custom enum types in PostgreSQL.

It looks like Rails 7.1 will proper support for dropping them in migrations

This looks like a great library to take your Rails javascript interactions up a notch without adding something like Alpine (or even more heavy-handed).

What's in your Gemfile? These are some of my favorite posts. I also need to create a list of my favorite/most often used gems soon.

Gemfile of dreams

I did a little digging and found an option for a Bauer 2 POM plate.

I would not be this excited for a piece of Polyoxymethylene. 😄

I went through Turbo Rails Tutorial (free e-book).

Overall, it is a helpful guide to seeing how all the Turbo/Hotwire pieces fit together.

It is free now, so no real gripes with it. But, if I could change anything I would have liked to see a git repository with the bare-bones structure in place. Copying and pasting a bunch of CSS just adds unnecessary busy work.

Fun little health food hack.

I purchased a couple cheap Silicone Air Fryer Liners. They make it very convenient to quickly cook various white fish for lunch with almost zero cleanups (just throw them in the dishwasher).

Today's flounder below (about 9 minutes at 375)

I cannot comment on the specifics of the Microsoft layoffs, but one thing in the announcement jumped out to me as particularly bad:

...with some notifications happening today

Yuck. The rest of the 100K+ employees just get to sweat it out for the rest of the year. Maybe the news broke before they were fully ready, but this is not an acceptable way to treat your employees (especially when your pockets are as deep as Microsoft's).

I have worked through a couple major layoffs. The second was full of remote employees, and the founder wanted to take the time to talk to each employee affected. I knew I was safe and who would ultimately be let go. It was a dreadful day of waiting for everyone (obviously worse for those let go).

Extending this longer than today should be a crime.
