Giving prettyping a try. Nice, so far.
Naming new iPhone Amphibious Blustery Flapdoodle.
Finding unlocking of Apple Watch via unlocking iPhone to be significantly slower with iOS 12/watchOS 5.
Stop the 2 space indent nonsense in recent ruby.vim:

I really, really wish PostgreSQL supported unsigned integers.
The modern version of the XKCD “compiling” comic is “waiting for the Vagrant VM to tear down and rebuild”.
Going through Learning Perl 6.

Copies of timestamps on files on High Sierra on APFS are truncating to microseconds, including cp -p source destination. Joy.
Seeing Ruby’s FileUtils.copy_entry(source, destination, true) mis-copy mtime on files on MacOS with APFS by a few microseconds, resulting in the destination being considered out-of-date.

Subshells are interesting beasts.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
echo Parent: $$ $BASHPID
(
echo Child: $$ $BASHPID
(
echo Grandchild: $$ $BASHPID
)
)
Note that /bin/bash on macOS is old and does not support $BASHPID, so it does not support differentiating subshell processes.
