I'm excited about working on some Web Performance "lab monitoring" at work but the initial runs are not great. Hoping that there are easy fixes that get us to be a lot more performant.

I got a dog about a week ago. His name is Tofu.

I tooted a little git command joke on Fosstodon the other day.
I imagine that git terminal users like me often mis-type the commands and I'm a fan of injecting humor into my daily life. The way I created the above screenshot is by creating a git alias. Normally you git alias different git commands but you can actually execute any command as a git alias by prepending the command with a exclamation.
$ git config --get alias.ranch !imgcat ~/Downloads/cowbow-kitten.png
Someone actually replied to my toot that I should alias common misspellings of commands as their right commands but I've already got
help.autocorrect
set on my git config.I'm not sure why it's not mentioned in the docs but I've got mine set to
-1
so that the autocorrect is executed immediately.
