Ball x Pit is the first game I have tried ( and succeeded! ) to get all the achievements for in about a decade. I have let the game marinate for a good while since I "finished" it to come up with why I enjoyed this game so much. I think...

The costs and benefits of this somewhat controversial procedure.
I was blessed to be able to get a used HP laptop in practically new condition with decent specs for free, so I installed Linux on it and I'm going to try using it as my primary personal computer for at least the rest of 2025 – about six...
Stamane ho postato questo grafico statistico da fedidb e beh, visto che questo post è di appena qualche settimana fa, ho pensato di buttarne giù un altro per fare il punto

I published three articles between November 9 and 14, 2025. All three articles were published last week in part because of things I published (or did not publish) on the same day in prior years. November 9: Investigating John Salley’s...

If you do Linux systems programming, you will have likely pored over man pages, either on the command line or, my personal preference, using the excellent man7.org or linux.die.net. I’ve always seen the numbers in sleep(3) and read(2)...
Yesterday I visited, with my Derbyshire cousin, the National Holocaust Centre and Museum. You can be forgiven if you've never heard of it – neither had I – as it is not widely publicised, and it is located in what could with some justice...

These might be my last photos from Washington this year. This was a cool sunset over the bay, but I like the contrast that came out when converted to black and white. Even though I know the sun and sky were bright red, I like that the...
November 2025. Sissinghurst. Kent. Coming to the end of our year of middle-aged National Trust membership now, but still time for a few late ticks from our temporary South-Eastern base in Rye before we ignore the requests to renew for...
Apparently it's been 1 week and five days since my last post. Weirdly, it feels like forever ago. A lot of things happened these past few days. A lot of work trips, conferences, social activities and many, many more. I miss blogging and...

Our little party of travelers awakened the next morning refreshed and full of hope, and Dorothy breakfasted like a princess off peaches and plums from the trees beside the river. Behind them was the dark forest they had passed safely...
There's a certain swelling of emotion that I'm feeling right now. It's interesting because it's a moment that I don't allow myself to write in because I'm typically too consumed in my thoughts, but this time around I am actively riding...

This past week wasn’t too bad. Work was steady and not too hectic, which is always a nice thing. This keeps my stress and anxiety at a manageable level. Personally, things were pretty good too. I choose to relax and focus on me and my...

In October, I reported two security issues to Okta’s auth0/nextjs-auth0 project, here and here. The latter bug, an oauth parameter injection, allows for a range of types of abuse, like scoping tokens for unintended services, setting...

November was a bit of a struggle, personally and drama-wise. Personally, I ended up dealing with a medical issue. Drama-wise, I’m still recovering from the masterpiece that was Fated Hearts, and finding a drama to fill that void has been...

I'm spending a few days in Kansas, helping my brother on our family Christmas tree farm. The work is physically challenging (dragging, lifting, netting, stacking, and loading Christmas trees), but I finish the day "good tired." Not the...
This is the novel I started reading the Hainish Cycle for. Often said to be on the greatest ever, a gem, a masterpiece. So far, the ride has been a bit disappointing, but The Left Hand of Darkness lives to the hype. Heck! It's often...
Teniendo un poquito de tiempo, me puse a revisar las últimas identidades visuales que armé, como una especie de introspectiva diseñística, y primero me puse contento por la amplia variedad de colores que incorporé a mi flujo de trabajo,...

I’m going to start sharing some of the music I’m listening to. I’ve finally moved away from streaming music services and I’ve found it very nice to listen to my own music for once. I talked a few days ago about albums vs playlists, but...
