Fri Aug 24 08:03:10 EDT 2018 Slept from nine-thirty to seven, without waking. High of eighty and partly cloudy today. Stopped at Starbucks on my way to work. Work: - Check backup scripts Done. - Review invoices Done. - Buy Bitvise license Done. WTF LVM? The `--quiet` options for `lvcreate` and `lvremove` don't seem to actually turn off routine output to STDOUT. Boo. It's bad that they break unix conventions by producing non-error output, but it's unforgivable that the `-q` option fails to silence it. New shell alias: alias snip="cat -s | sed '/^#.*/d'" Home: - Text Ed about doing something this weekend Done. - Find a doctor who's accepting new patients No. Took out trash. https://www.reddit.com/r/history/comments/99poou/what_did_ancient_and_medieval_people_think_of_apes/ > "In its inmost recess was an island similar to that formerly described, which contained in like manner a lake with another island, inhabited by a rude description of people. The females were much more numerous than the males, and had rough skins: our interpreters called them Gorillae. We pursued but could take none of the males; they all escaped to the top of precipices, which they mounted with ease, and threw down stones; we took three of the females, but they made such violent struggles, biting and tearing their captors, that we killed them, and stripped off the skins, which we carried to Carthage: being out of provisions we could go no further." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanno_the_Navigator > Hanno the Navigator[1] was a Carthaginian explorer of the sixth or fifth century BC,[2] best known for his supposed naval exploration of the western coast of Africa. The only source of his voyage is a Greek periplus. Finished reading I Am Legend. Short, but good. https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr Breakfast: cafe latte, sausage sandwich Lunch: chicken shawarma wrap, coffee Dinner: crackers
