I'm doing small experiment right now. I have heard so many things about iPad as a primary device and about recently released 10.5 iPad pro, so I decided to check, is it possible for me to use it instead of mac. I was full of thoughts, that it would be problem to write code, there is no good IDE on iOS, next iOS version is not supported on my ancient iPad 4, no proper bash terminal, etc.
Problem number one, that killed everything: it is completely impossible to type on laps. I have connected by bluetooth my magic keyboard (with is great), and put it on my knees, but I have no idea, where should iPad go. Right now it's bended between legs and it is simply dumb.
However, iPad experience with keyboard is much better. I have strange feeling, that it really can be more than a youtube device. Of course, there are another questions, like, can I use terminal inside new Files app (or just in iCloud files), what is best app to write code for different languages, and many more, but first and foremost - is there any hard case, that can bind keyboard and iPad itself together. I use MacBook in dock or on laps, and now iPad cannot replace both this use cases.
P.S. new iPad screen with 120Hz refresh rate is awesome! At least, for me, I always prefer 1080p60 over 4k30. p.s.s Put away iPad and took MacBook again. Such pleasure.

Again, I wanted to write a long post about how quick I have made changes in my new blog, but two hours later, when all changes eventually working, I doesnt have juice to search proper words.
At first, sqlite doesnt support dropping columns, so I had to remove all migrations to drop 'accounts' table and foreign key to it. Sucks. However, for my purposes sqlite is more than enough, I will just use same principle, than on work: newer make shrinking migrations.
At second, I finally got docker working properly with external files (for db). At least, I hope so, this post will prove, was I right or wrong. If it will dissapear after docker restart, then I have clear todo for tomorrow evening.
Wrote all build-publish-run process in scripts, I guess, its first time, that I use bash intensively in years. Feels totaly cool!
At last, has spend 5 min in apple store with new ipad pro. I remain uncertain, that ipad can be helpful in programmer's life, but, my god, this 120hz refresh rate looks awesome! Have a lot of thoughts about news from wwdc, but I really need go to bed.

'Only' 2 hours - and I have added posibility to create new posts from site. Previously it was just db file, that I have copied from debug folder.
Thinking about blog name. "Hyston's thoughts" ? After sunday evening coding I doesnt have a lot of meaningful thoughts..

2am. Cant sleep again.
Need for deploy something somewhere. I just want to make something, that would be not just a fix in giant enterprise project solution. I need small sparkle, light breese of creativity, just something that can prove my ability to create something new.
Apparently, this blog will be abandoned very soon. May be 10 minuts after deployng. But now I have created new dotnet app with entity framework and deployed it to virtual debian and very proud of myself.
Need to sleep.
