cmake has now produced a broken makefile which errors not during configuration but after that, the single thing i respected it for not doing along with the caching i also successfully broke. it has been downgraded from "reliable with terrible language" to "it works if i don't touch it"

[BEDSHEETS CHANGED]
you know i think it may be significant that when i talk about why the work in the cancer lab motivated me i say "these VERY SMART grad students were held back by their coding environment" because it should be very clear why that matters but it occurs to me that robert pike sees people as essential scaffolding for him to be very smart. which. maybe i do too? but my success metric includes whether i succeed
just exited the shower......they're saying that shit was QC approved ✅✅✅

there's this incredible bit to start chapter 2 of the holes book by louis sachar where you know as context spoiler alert for chapter 1 he gets framed for this cartoonishly evil and also clearly improbable crime and is sent to a desert where they dig holes and the desert is clearly full of holes and it emphasizes not only how remote it is but how part of its remoteness is how it's covered in this moat of essentially their own graves. i don't know if the book ever says that part.
but chapter 2 starts and he just previously had one kid talk to him and tell him oh you think this is bad? the second hole is the worst. because the injuries beget their own pain now and the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune and then.......
second sentence. the third hole's the worst. the fourth. but stanley knew that wasn't true. he was getting stronger.
idk maybe that's the most improbable part of the text. but the slings and arrows can't rely on outrageous fortune forever. fortune can mean luck, wealth, fate. some of these end up reducing to the others but the transformation is one-way. information is lost.
one thing i never get tired of is reading documentation i wrote. like damn you are so right and you know what? this is new information to me. this also happens for like other text i write. i promise you the ocd makes it take hours to figure things out but usually once it's out i don't find my own reasons to fix it beyond nitpicks. no clue why i was granted this gift but it happened immediately the first day i took an SSRI
