• One year of The Week without missing a single post 🎉. Creating this weekly post got me back into blogging regularly again and gave me an opportunity each week to reflect on life. Initially I thought I'd reference previous posts more, but in practice I don't. One year ago I had just gotten my Apple Watching, helping me start my 4:30-ish wake ups,  just grokking micropub, and running into issues with Wordpress. Now I still wake up at 4:30 (mostly naturally), wrote a micropub server, and ditched Wordpress for a custom blogging engine. What a year.
  
  If you're trying to start a blog or you have a blog and want to blog regularly, I can't recommend a weekly roundup enough. Keeping the format a simple bullet list makes it easier to write as you don't need a fancy narrative or worry about how to connect the points. You can just write.
• We booked a weekend trip to Atami for before the Olympics later this month. But with the huge landslide that happened, I don't think we can feel good relaxing when there's search and rescue happening a kilometer away. Hopefully we can reschedule it for a later date.
• In Covid-19 news this week, Kanagawa prefecture has finally rolled out it's "cancel-waiting" notification system via LINE this week. The idea is when there's a cancellation for a vaccine appointment, they'll contact people who've registered with the system and you can take the appointment with your phone. It helps reduce vaccine wastage.
• Meanwhile in Edokawa-ku in Tokyo, they delayed sending out the vaccine voucher to foreign residents by an entire week because "we needed to prepare translations". It boggles my mind. Foreigner residents can read Japanese, too? Even if we can't we can figure it out for a week while you prepare documents? 
  
  Note this also was true for older residents who should already have their vouchers,  but don't because they're not Japanese. If this wasn't for a life saving shot weeks before a massive international sporting event, I'd be a bit more understanding.
• I fixed a few bugs with Tanzawa and have been getting some good issues opened in the repository that's helping me find issues in my (lack) of documentation. I'm starting to think I need to make a more "formal" documentation, but not quite sure what to use / where to host it yet. The "default" for the Python community is readthedocs (and thereby Sphinx?), but I have yet to look into how to set that all up.
• I got completely caught up on Trying, a good sitcom about a couple in the UK trying to adopt a child. It's a really good show. And I enjoy the main character's accent. AppleTV+ may not have the quantity of shows that Netflix does, but you can count on quality.

Djangoで非同期処理を実現するために、よく使われているCelery。ただDjangoほど知見が共有されていないため、なんとなく使っているという方も多いのではないかと思います。そのような場合Celeryを使えるようにするまでは順調でも、実際に運用がはじまったあとに困ることが出てきます。例えば、ログの保存、リトライの設計、デプロイ戦略など。
このトークでは、CeleryをDjangoプロジェクトで実際に運用するうえでの役立つTipsをお伝えします。

• Use **kwargs for your tasks input. This makes it easier to make updates to your tasks once they're already running in production if your input needs to change. 
• Reminders about all of the handy kwargs you can pass to tasks in regards to retry. Especially handy autoretry_for where you can pass a tuple of exceptions that will cause the task to automatically retry
