I've started using DNSControl for configuring DNS for my personal domains and it's been delightful. Declarative DNS! I get comments (the DSL is just JS), history (it's in git) and trivial rollback! I've switched my DNS provider to Hetzner (which is free!) to use this.

I eventually learned that there's a 'correct way up' for USB A cables. The two small holes should be on top. Tragically not all power adapters get this right, even for name brands. My ability to get the cable right first time still isn't much better than 50%!

I love how JS makes project-specific imports unambiguous: `import "./project-dir/foo"` versus `import "installed-pkg/foo". I've been doing the same in my PL. I've just realised that `import "/home/wilfred/project/foo"` now works too. It's weird but probably harmless?
