7 a.m. Wake up and check Twitter, which feels a bit like walking into the lobby of a Las Vegas casino at 6 a.m. to head to the airport and seeing all the people, dead-eyed, playing the slots: They’ve either been there all night or they woke up and started playing slots first thing in the morning.

Shuf is a Linux and Unix command-line utility that puts its input text in random order to generate output consisting of random permutations of the input. In simple terms, it just shuffles the input of either text file or standard input passed through the command line.

I used to roam the streets of Ibiza as I normally roam streets of
any strange city, toting an efficient global-nomad shoulder-bag,
crammed with electronics and travel-survival knickknacks. This year
I just carry a floppy canvas grocery bag.

Admittedly, it's a tote-bag from the distant "Bangalore Literary
Festival," but nobody cares about branding. If you carry groceries
around in a bag, nobody sees you. Because obviously you must be local.

It's the foreigners and tourists who have those ergonomic,
airplane-centric, efficient bags. They don't slop around with cheap canvas bags meant for onions.

So what I'm sporting in Ibiza in MMXX is camouflage for our new
era of ethnonationalism and "overtourism," a term recently invented in nearby Barcelona.
