Daily notes

Dear @AIGLifeUK I have been paying for the insurance for a long time and today for the very first time I wanted to use your service but your #SmartHealth app didn't work and due to which my wife missed her appointment with the GP and she also didn't receive any phone call either. I hope your have plans to fix it.

@nowtv down this morning in SL2 as well. I am in Burnham, Slough. Their site says it is a planned #outage but didn't mention SL2 post codes. #nowtv #sky

Can't believe 7 months of the year have passed. Things get really exciting from Aug onwards for me. Lot of exciting things are going to happen in the next few months ☺️
P.S. - This is the #Horlicks factory in Slough where flats are being developed

Organisations are moving toward #JiraCloud now more than ever, apart from doing a proper Jira to Jira import many people still want to #migrate data using #csv or any other tool. I started this github repository to store sample csv files and configurations. Of course I will be making videos on it as well. https://github.com/sparxsys/sample-jira-data

One good thing that I have done (and still doing) is sharing my #Emacs and #OrgMode configurations in a form of this epic blog post https://ravi.pro/blog/blogging-with-emacs-org-mode.html and also series of videos/blog posts https://www.ravisagar.in/category/topic/emacs-and-org-mode-tutorials It takes time and effort to learn these things but I feel over the years I have created this workflow that works really well for me in organising my work and most importantly getting things done.

Not trying to replace spreadsheets yet but tables in #Emacs can also do calculations for you. https://ravi.pro/blog/emacs-table-calculation.html

I have been playing with Atlassian Forge for the past few weeks and so far I am really enjoying it. The app development on the cloud is quite different. Good thing is that it rely on REST API so if you have been working with it already then you won't find it difficult to learn Forge. Apart from that I am happy that I am have my own service desk has started receiving tickets. I always help clients in adopting Jira, especially service desk where usually organisations follow ITSM/ITIL practices and I feel proud that I am also doing the same. Of course my intention is really just to have a place where I manage all the requests that people send me.

Weather in UK is changing. Although I don't complain too much about the weather but I certainly have changed in the last 4 years living in UK. Now I look forward to sunny days and not miss an opportunity to get Vitamin D. Things are looking bright now and I am looking forward to summers now :)

One thing that hasn't changed really lately is me making videos. I don't honestly make an effort to create videos. It gives me a sense a satisfaction and most importantly I feel good about it. I am also quite happy with the kind of videos I have been making. Raw and simple. I have realised that I like sharing stuff quickly and regularly, that's why I prefer not getting into the hassle of video editing. I hope I can continue to make videos like this. 

Apart from YouTube I sync all my videos on another platform https://odysee.com/@ravisagar:d just in case ;)

Ok bye.
