My plans to tinker on an app idea last week didn’t go as planned. I ended up spending the week getting sucked into a JavaScript rabbit hole to try and clean up a Drafts Action that I created. While it wasn’t what I had started out the week wanting to do, I’m glad that it went this way. I’m happy with how the Action is looking now and will make it easier to maintain going forward.
Since we have the week off, I want to try and do some digital cleanup and adjust some workflows. Also want to try and continue with a little side project app that I started and never finished. I’m sure there will also be some house cleaning and organizing in there as well.
I know better than to check email when I wake up at 4 in the morning. Especially when it’s work related. Now can’t go back to sleep because I’m frustrated and can’t do anything to resolve the issue until everyone gets into the office.
Missed the iPadOS, watchOS, and tvOS announcements in the WWDC keynote. Will have to recap those before the State of the Union.

Prepping all of my devices for loading the betas today. 😬

Took me a little longer than I intended, but I finally pushed out some updates to my Drafts action for posting to Micro.blog.
- Fixed a but with the authentication toke, where it was possible to include an empty space at the beginning or end. This would cause it to fail. Stripped out these spaces to avoid this issue.
- Fixed an issue with cross posting. If you unchecked all options, it would cross post everywhere. Sorry about that. Now it should allow you to properly cross post how you choose.
- New feature, Scheduled Posts. You can now schedule a post directly from Drafts. When creating the post just set the date and time that you would like the post to publish. At the moment you cannot change the scheduled date in Drafts, you will need to update that on the website for now.
Nothing fancy to see here, just testing some cross posting fixes for my Drafts action. 🤞🏼
Trying to figure out the best way to introduce changes so that it is backwards compatible, but without making the code a nightmare to maintain, is always a fun part about software development.
I am so grateful and blessed that I have this amazing woman in my life. Through all of the ups and downs of loosing our first born and the emotional struggles of welcoming our second, she is the strongest woman, mother, and wife that I know. As much as I know that she would like to change her name after hearing mommy repeated for the 100th time, she never falters. She brings so much joy into our lives. Happy Mother’s Day my love, we love you so much and are thankful for you every day.
I’m waiting for my daughter to ask me to start her a YouTube channel. She’s starting to ask me to record her doing funny things that she sees on a fun channel that she currently watches. Not sure that I’m ready for that. 😳 😂
