My strategy of dumping various notes in a semicoherently-named directory tree and then grepping through them makes me feel like a caveman, but it works for me. I feel that tools like this are overcomplicating things.
A few years back I discovered that the Ethiopian run minimart up the street sells unroasted coffee beans, $6/lb.
I bought a pound and followed the proprietor’s advice, roasting small quantities in a cast iron pan on medium high and agitating/stirring until it looked right.
This was too labor intensive to be sustainable (40m for about 100g), but the end result was breathtaking. Immediately bought a roaster from Sweet Maria’s and haven’t looked back.
I’m in the Pacific Northwest and we are spoiled for choice with artisanal roasters and coffee shops alike, but mine still tastes better since I roasted it yesterday.
I replicate my community where I find it. Some of it is at a brunch spot I go to regularly. Some of it is a bar that I frequent. Some of it is in annual activities with my neighbors.
I don’t need to believe in a made up Sky Daddy to be a good person, I have plenty of examples in my communities.
I have! BIND 9.11.x, as pairs of caching recursive resolvers advertised over BGP. We have a pair in every data center (12 dcs at last count) Each with one of two IPs (anycasting). Every time I get hit up for a “problem” with this it turns out the problem is with an authoritative AD server. I really love it as it’s been in place for almost four years and it has never been the source of any problems.
