Oh man. Getting set up for sending regions to the IPython REPL in spacemacs was super easy. Great stuff.
Kind: Notes
python’s argparse is a really handy library. Sometimes it’s the little things in life (coding) that are important.
Working on my research today, feeling pretty amazed at the range of free software and services available to me that enable me to do so. GNU, Linux, bash, emacs, spacemacs, vim, PHP, codeception, git, github, travis, TeX, LyX. Eclipse, FeatureIDE. Whatever all of these themselves are built on. DuckDuckGo, StackOverflow and blogs helping with questions. Plenty more I’m sure I’ve missed out. Flipping awesome, this ecosystem.

Seems like this might be implemented eventually: "Allow specifying allow_failure: true per job on jobs.include. (Probably yes, but not before [1].)". https://github.com/travis-ci/beta-features/issues/28
"A stage is a group of jobs that are allowed to run in parallel. However, each one of the stages runs one after another, and will only proceed if all jobs in the previous stage have passed successfully." That’s a shame – I want to have a stage that deploys my test artifacts after all test jobs in the previous stage have run. Even if one of them has failed.
“Ryanair is to recognise pilot unions for the first time in its 32-year history in an attempt to prevent strikes in the run-up to Christmas.”
“Ryanair’s share price fell almost 8% on Friday after its announcement.”
This system is broken.
At HWC London yesterday, my intention was to spend a bit of time improving the display of my RSVP posts. An example of one here: https://doubleloop.net/2017/12/10/hwc-london-december-13th-2017-%f0%9f%8e%84/
My RSVP posts work great, functionality wise, thanks to the Post Kinds plugin (creating the post successfully sends a webmention to the event page). However the display looks a little funky with my theme.

Another UBI blockchain-based digital currency, Manna (https://www.mannabase.com/), formerly grantcoin. Around since 2015.
Put together a little web scraper in Python with scrapy (scrapy.org) and selenium. Massively impressed, made it super simple to get the data that I wanted off the pages.
