Hello, my name is Judas Gutenberg and this is my blaag (pronounced as you would the vomit noise "hyroop-bleuach").

Like my brownhouse:
   less frequent and less severe
Tuesday, June 10 2025
Today was a little better at work because I felt like I was at least making progress towards getting answers to a few of the questions hovering over my head.
During the drive home at the end of the day, I found the CEO at my new job was following me for most of the way. (He drives a nice black BMW SUV.) I lost him in front of Davenport's when I busted a left off of US 209 onto Mill Dam Road. Evidently he lives at least as far north as the hamlet of Marbletown.
Gretchen was off socializing with her librettist friend when I got home, so I immediately took the dogs for a walk down the Stick Trail. My back still gives me the occasional stab of pain, but it's less frequent and less severe, so I can now go back to doing stuff like hiking up a steep escarpment off-trail.
Later I took a nice hot bath and cooked up some orecchiette pasta for me to eat with some of the fried tempeh, mushrooms, and onions I'd made yesterday.

Among the things I built today for my ESP8266 Remote Control system was a completely generic way to do front-end validation to confirm that a non-primary-key number that nevertheless must be unique remains so. My validation even gives the human-readable name of the existing record using the number in its error message.
