I just hit the publish button on a new story all about technology, e-bikes, and the future. Here, look: https://robinrendle.com/stories/this-glorious-machine/ I got an e-bike about a year ago and made a draft of this story immediately....
2024 was a hard year, reading wise. As I noted in last year’s round-up, in September 2023 I stopped reading. J did his usual and got me some really wonderfully fascinating looking books for Christmas, and I started one of them soon...
While most are waiting for today (Happy New Year) to come around to hit the gym, to start eating better, to start that business, or change their lives in one of the thousand stereotypical ways people start each new year, know that every...

On feeling seen in my own proverbial glass house.
I'm not very good at organizing, especially in meat space. In the past year I've been spending some time to improve on this issue! The results are a nicely organized electronics work station (more later) and an ever improving digital...
Why even consider templating Dockerfiles? Dockerfiles revolutionized the industry with their simplicity. Each instruction creates a new layer in the image, which is automatically cached. This process integrates well with SCM, where you...
