This one's a good one! With good headphones, it really sounds like there's a downpour outside. Good for focusing at work too, which is what I'm using it for right now.

Still working on that endpoint while rocking out to this song... this song has aged well. Still so good.

Still working on the endpoint I mentioned in yesterday's journal entry. The song for the day is a gem from Sixx: A.M. I feel like this is such an underrated song.

Working on a new story at work. An endpoint that can process a batch of items. Problem is, this makes logging tricky. How do you log a message for the whole request if it runs into an error? What about if an individual item in the request runs into an error? Decisions, decisions. Been chatting with Copilot about this and it's providing some insightful answers.
Getting used to Jira; I come from an Azure DevOps background. In a lot of ways I think it is better than Azure DevOps, but... there's so much going on here. Azure DevOps, while it doesn't seem to have as much functionality than Jira, seems easier to use precisely because of that.
Jamming to “Today, Tomorrow” by JJ Project. I could listen to this all day.

You’re always getting me high then you’re pulling me low Then you beg me to stay, but you want me to go You’re always telling me “yes” but your answer is “no” If you want me to guess, I’m just a stranger you know If you call this winning why do I feel like a loser?
Yeah, an awesome song with great lyrics, but it's also what today feels like for me.

Today's choice of focus music while refactoring an API.
#FocusMusic #ShinGiwonPiano #Status
Refactoring a method, trying to reduce cognitive complexity from 19 to 15. I think I can bring it down even lower than 15. Anyway, my focus music of choice is Torres from Mayonnaise. This one is a beat or two slower than the original. But man I love how they turn the end into a jamming session. These guys are true musicians and have mastery over their instruments.

Checking my son's math homework while listening to this banger from Typecast.

I am burned out and exhausted. But the finish line might be in sight. Gotta get this fix out tonight. I've found that when I get really stressed, great music helps me cope. Like this awesome cover of Radiohead's “Creep”. I can listen to this over and over.
Here's an accompanying short that is related:

Having to do another all-nighter trying to get something done at work. This seems to be happening more frequently... hmmm. Anyway, trying to get through with this great song from Hale. Back to early 2000s with this classic.
