Tea - www.craigpardey.com - 9 years ago - eng

This is a continuation of my post about clean tea , except this time I analysed the offerings from Tealyra . Tealyra by the numbers: 490 teas (excluding kits and samplers) 175 contain sugar and/or flavourings 187 caffeine-free So I filtered the list to only show teas with: No caffeine No sugar No stevia No flavourings 86 teas on the Tealyra® menu pass my filter for what I would consider to be “clean” which makes Tealyra the best..

woke up feeling quite terrible. headache,fever, weakness and stomach issues. slept most of the day, woke up to eat and drink a little.


From Google's physical web project to the emergence of more affordable virtual reality and augmented reality systems, it's time to take a serious look at how the web is changing, and the exciting possibilities for its application outside of screens.

In 2011 I wrote : Travel opens my mind to new perspectives and allows me to recontextualize existing systems of thought. While true for me at that time, for that trip; there is nothing magical about travel itself that opens the mind to new perspectives nor helps to “recontextualize existing systems of thought”. One must be ready and “in the mood” to open ones mind and experience life from a new perspective. The distance travelled ....

Environment variables are declared with the ENV statement and are notated in the Dockerfile either with $VARIABLE_NAME or ${VARIABLE_NAME}. Passing variables at build-time The ENV instruction sets the environment variable to the value. The environment variables set using ENV will persist when a container is run from the resulting image. For example: The Dockerfile allows you to specify arguments […]

don’t remember much of this day, woke up late, n uncle arrived in the day time. hung out with everyone at home, got a feel for what’s next with regards to nani’s condition. p,m and r went to a party, we stayed home and relaxed. m looked happy, and seemed to be distracted for the moment.

TL;DR by learning internals a gotcha is a valid construct in a system, program or programming language that works as documented but is counter-intuitive and almost invites mistakes because it is both easy to invoke and unexpected or unreasonable in its outcome (source: wikipedia ) Go programming language has some gotchas and there is a number of good articles explaining them. I find those articles very important, especially f..

Did some work, but mostly prepped to leave for stl. feeling guilty, that I’m not putting in the amount of work I should. reached stl late, seemed normal, saw s after many years, a fine man.

For fixed integers $ r > 0$, and odd $ g$, a Moore graph is an $ r$-regular graph of girth $ g$ which has the minimum number of vertices $ n$ among all such graphs with the same regularity and girth. (Recall, A the girth of a graph is the length of its shortest cycle, and it’s regular if all its vertices have the same degree) Problem (Hoffman-Singleton): Find a useful constraint on the relationship between $ n$ and $ r$ for Moore graphs of ..

Met with B from CoC meetup. Also ran into C from ZP. It was a little awkward, as she hadn’t responded to my emails yet. Selling is tough - these projects aren’t going to pan out for weeks, maybe months. Gotta keep going though. Also got bad news about Nani. more cancer has been found. We decided to fly out tomorrow to see M, who was very shaken. got flights for friday evening.

As I posted on the bug report on the Qt bug tracker : Hi, We ran into this problem recently. In my opinion this is a somewhat serious problem with Qt that should be fixed. We noticed this after fixing a bug in our code. A function was incorrectly taking an int argument instead of a double argument, and we were passing a double in. But the usual warning was not reported The usual warning would be something like: warning C4244: 'initial....

I commonly groan as a new product, service, protocol, or format is launched with one of my trigger words in the name. To save you the effort of truly considering whether this word is justified in the name of your thing, here's a ready-made list of words that do not belong in the name of your thing: simple lightweight easy standard universal permanent As a bonus, it is very likely that these words do not belong in the name of your thing,..

I recently had an unexpectedly great support experience from a company that one does not usually associate with excellent customer support: Microsoft. I had been running Windows 10 as a VirtualBox VM on my Linux laptop for quite some time. I needed Windows for a few things like my accounting software (Quickbooks) and remote access to the office but the setup wasn’t working as cleanly as I’d like, particularly around support for external d..

today got a late start. had a webinar in the morning. I’m hugely optimistic (hopeful? desperate?) when it comes to webinars, thinking I’m going to learn so much from them. most of the time I end up tuning them out. not sure what I’m doing wrong. picking something and implementing it? also, sidenote, I wonder if other people are this obsessed with making a business/freedom? I feel I have very little bandwidth to want to think about anyth..

today was a bit on the light side. had a good conversation with p on whether (and how) to pursue stone vs software business. it’s not easy being in his position. he’s invested, both personally and professionally. I’m thinking I’ll set a definitive cutoff date e.g. 1 year to get this going (or not). found a new place to work - whole foods cafe. wonderful food, open early, open late, electrical outlets (some).

Monday started off with checking out of our old apartment. It was bitter-sweet. Had kind of gotten attached to the place, and hadn’t realized it. Had really enjoyed being close to the water. Went to Home Depot to get blinds after. The ones that R wanted were 10-15x the basic blinds! Didn’t know blinds did that! Decided on curtains instead. While the typical man might be bored (honestly, I thought I would be too), but instead I felt a ve..

Woke up to go to Ikea…again. The drawers we didn’t get yesterday were supposed to be in stock today. We went in through the checkout area and were able to secure 2 units of the drawers (Oppland, if that means anything). Wooohoo. Brought them back, M arrived and we left for D and D’s. D was not happy when we got there. She was expecting us earlier, she said, near tears.
