   I've been traveling a lot, dealing with a lot of personal shit, dealing with invoicing, and I've even gotten some nice headway on Spritely. I think it's time for some relaxation for a day, including some relaxing hacking. I shouldn't have to feel like I'm asking permission to do this kind of thing but I feel like it anyway.

     @cwebber I've been trying to explore hacking as a form of relaxation too by forcing myself to work on very small things (because "relaxing" on a larger project turns into sleepless nights). I'd be curious to know how you approach it and prevent yourself from getting too serious and re-stressed.
     
     I recently set myself up a repository to try to encourage myself to do just that (https://mikegerwitz.com/projects/night/about/), though I haven't had too much time for it yet. Though it did have an unexpected consequence: one of the things I did was write a sed script to make little balls move and fall around a barely-interactive ASCII map, and my kids fell in love with it.
