The thing that really became the killer app for me in emacs (and for many people I have come across) is org mode. It was the reason that I could not leave the emacs world completely, and what drove me back to using it full time. For those that don’t know about org - it is one of the most definitive ways that nerds...

Lasciamoci alle spalle un Sanremo orrendo (in cui mio malgrado ho dovuto rivalutare Fedez...) e andiamo alla mia solita rassenga di dischi del mese, con in cima un meraviglioso figlio di Scozia...

Brandon at What’s a Computer? writes about his 2025 Streetpass challenge to see how many Streetpass tags he can get with his 3DS. I miss Streetpass a lot, I have fond memories of going on a school trip and getting tags from people all over the country. Seeing the indicator lit up at the end of the day was exciting!...

I'm not proud of it of course, but it's something I've been working on for a while now. I vouched to try to default to optimism and see the good in things and...

I do too much thinking about what I want to make, and not enough actually making the thing.

Read on the website: or just use CSS lol. Slides for the seminar I gave at work regarding modern CSS niceties. Deprecating a whole class of "modern" front-end practices/technologies.

Spoiler: I am madly in love with my current Playdate development setup in Neovim! What did I do? First, I created an ftplugin for Lua that sets pdc as the compiler and adds a keyboard shortcut for :Make if there is a source/main.lua file in the working directory. I use that—admittedly somewhat flimsy—check (derived...

I had grand plans for this post, involving intricate artwork, interesting layouts, and bold colours, but—I lack the willpower to execute on them, this time around. Instead, here we shall have: several straight-forward lists, covering the events of the last month or so, which is a period of time universally...
