I cracked the code on an application rewrite I last attempted in 2010, so I've spent a lot of my copious free time the past week working on it. I hope to have more to say soon, but software takes time. And when I'm in the zone, I like to stay there. All of which is why it's 9:30 and I have just gotten around to reading all this:
- The president stomped out of a 60 Minutes interview with Lesley Stahl, and for reasons passing understanding, has threatened to release it himself.
- Pope Francis has officially endorsed civil partnerships for gays, to mixed reviews.
- NASA successfully landed a probe onto a small asteroid that scooped up some dust and gently lifted off again.
- The Lyric Opera of Chicago has officially cancelled the remainder of the 2020-21 season due to Covid-19.
- On this day in 1926, the heads of Chicago's Prohibition-era gangs signed a peace deal. (It lasted almost a year.)
- And what is "cuffing season" and why did no one inform me about it?
I'm now going to turn off all my screens, walk Parker, and go to bed. (Though I just got the good news that my 8:30 am demo got moved to a later time.)
