Bought rubyonmac.com and rubyonmac.dev to host the premium version of my Ruby script. Some features I have in mind based on my research and feedback from people who used the script:
- Handle all the cleanup for those who have already tried setting up a development environment
- Create a new Rails app, and deploy it to Heroku
- Create a new Jekyll site, and deploy it to Netlify or GitHub Pages
Found this helpful article to deal with null bytes: Don’t let the null bytes bite | Development Simplified. It matches what I had in mind based on using middleware for something similar in login.gov.

Did Hainsby 20-min ride. New PR! But after shower, lower back started hurting. I don’t remember feeling any pain during the ride, but I think towards the end when I had to get up to 90 cadence with 50 resistance, I might have been slouching. Back felt fine during stretch as well, and during shower too. I don’t remember straining anything. I iced it after shower, then later took a nap with warming pad. Called my chiro to set up appointment.
Played with the kids in their playhouse in our backyard. It was unseasonably warm.
Joanna shared an NPR story on masks, and they mentioned @masknerd who compiled this helpful spreadsheet: Kid’s Mask Summary[WIP]. Based on that, I ordered a bunch of masks to see which ones fit the kids best:
- Blue KF94 Tiger 3D from behealthy.com
- Bluna and CocoMong XXS from KollecteUSA
- Dr. Puri from kmact.com
He says his faves are the SAVEWO 3D Meow S 30Pcs, but it looks like minimum order is 30 masks. Most dimensions are close to the blue tiger, but the Savewo width is one of the largest, so might be too big. Let’s test the ones we ordered first.
