Something that interested me this week
This week I was a
regex machine. I used it to validate dates, emails, and a few other strings in an app I'm building. I started looking into different ways where I could get better at building my own expressions.
This website had a lot of built-in cheatsheets and input to test on, and
this one was great for building, saving, and sharing expressions. But, my favorite site by far was this
Regex Crossword website. I found myself reminiscing about computer science homework (never thought I'd say that, ever) doing all the different puzzles and remembering combinations. Regex is something that I think a lot of us ~technical folk~ generally understand, but always have room to understand
better.

Joke
I got in trouble with the police the other day at the ATM for shoving an old person over.
I don't understand why though, she did ask me to check her balance.
That's all folks! Have a good one, be safe, make good choices, and enjoy some cake.
