Who the hell are all uber drivers talking to? It's such low volume low energy chat! Are they all talking to each other about their passengers?

It's become my go-to runtime. The developer experience is amazing, the std lib is great and since npm interoperability was introduced, it just works with everything I need it to and it's very very fast!
The test framework is "did that even run? Fast
... Productivity tools such as the Eisenhower matrix can help you prioritise these tasks giving you a view on what should be done in this "grunt work" block vs a later one.

Push "grunt work" tasks to the beginning or end of the day. Even after lunch before a focus period is a good time for these...
2024 insight on productivity.
Multitasking as a default method of work in a creative job is a false economy.
It may feel good for a short period of time but it's a short cut to burnout, loss of quality, and eventually feelings dropping the ball on everything.

An agile insight from 2024, stop optimistically estimating work. Inevitably things will crop up, unforeseen dependencies or complexity.

After a few months of using fuel-charts.madole.dev I've decided to move the fuel nearby functionality to the home page and the statewide stats into their own route. 99% of the time I'm doing a quick check for the cheapest fuel around, makes sense to optimise for that. More to come.
