The Product Is Set Free

Yay! We released the new version of our product yesterday, although at this point it was more of like we gently nudged the very shy product out of the van and into the real world, instead of the preferred sense of allowing some wild thing to finally run free. At some point there may be celebration, but with things as they usually are we've dived right into new work. Even as I type the 2.0 tree is busily compiling away.

And ... it's already the end of the day. Most of it went to a bewildering bug in one of my reports which isn't even throwing a useful exception. I spent hours on end tracking it down; I've now got it narrowed down to a few lines of code, but the why and wherefores of it are still a mystery. And likely to remain one for some short while, as tomorrow is Norm and the rebuilding of the development machine.

I'm back to reading Mazo de la Roche. It's definite comfort fiction.

I'm also not eating. I don't know why; I think about it, and eating nice food sounds really good, but somehow I never manage to get to the point of actually feeding myself. I did take enough care to have corn soup as a very late lunch, and now I'm going to detach myself from the keyboard and go pick up fast food of some variety (probably Chinese) and eat it at home while doing Hebrew homework mere tens of minutes before the class. Zoom.
