Se da una parte il grande lavoro nella Sanità ha reso chiaro quanto sia importante che sia una e Pubblica, dall'altra alcune maestre sembra si stiano impegnando a far fare brutta figura alla Scuola Pubblica.

Stasera hanno mandato i compiti per 2, due, DUE settimane di pausa per le "vacanze" 🤐 di Pasqua.
Due paginette in croce che in due giorni li abbiam finiti.

E proprio ora che era ripartita una minima routine di 2, due incontri di 1h e mezza in videoconferenza la settimana.

Che delusione profonda 😞

Yesterday for my birthday my family organized a "trip" to Japan ⛩️ for me, including flight: my wife and I passengers and children flight personnel 😆 and then simulated flight with video ✈️

Once we arrived, dinner in Tokyo 🗼 🍜 !

I love my family! #quarantine

https://www.se-radio.net/2020/01/episode-396-barry-oreilly-on-antifragile-architecture/ interesting podcast on the concept of antifragility, although the example of pneumonia (look at the date) is now out of place 😶.

TL;DR: antifragile systems are systems that grow stronger because of stress instead of collapsing.

Luckily I use btrfs and snapper to keep a few snapshots of my disc, and inside there I could recover the keyring, but I was still missing the password.

That done I worked, had lunch, came back to the keyboard and...

Typed my old password!

So I restored back my password in sync with the keyring, an my laptop was back fully operational!

I later realized that a copy of the backup key is stored in my online password manager too, but nonetheless, thanks #btrfs!

After the holiday I forgot my laptop user password. Luckily not the disc encryption one, just the user. So I did the live CD dance to mount the disk and reset the user password.

That done I could boot but the keyring was locked, because the password didn't match.

I removed the keyring, and that done I realized that inside I had the encryption key of my backup. And I can't restore the keyring from the backup without that key.
