Manual Work is a Bug. This speaks to me on so many levels, especially in my current role at work. I've become so well known as "the automation guy" that it became 50% of my performance review this year. Previously we'd had ok-documented steps but they required you to keep Confluence open and copy/paste every command into your SSH session.

speedtest-influxdb. Since I got fiber to the home I've been wanting to track this better so I thought tossing right into my InfluxDB database would be the right way.

Vector Ruler Generator. Neato, creates rulers of whatever length and increments that you can laser etch (or cut?) or even just print. I'm thinking about printing one and taping it to my workbench with packing tape, having a ruler on the edge of many surfaces can be handy.     #>
