This is my monthly link dump, a regular monthly series containing a mix of links to interesting blog posts I’ve read from the past month covering arts & culture, myth, folklore, landscape punk, hauntology, anarchism, utopianism, the...
Some link titles have been slightly modified for style. EntertainmentBandcamp announces ban on AI musicNow, I feel like supporting more human-made music there. (There is an archived version available in case Pitchfork decides to put its...
In fragile hierarchies, the sharpest blades are often polished with concerned empathy. I recently came across a fascinating series of studies about women who disguise negative gossip as concern. Instead of hearing, "Sophie's a mess," you...
We went to FRA for what is likely to be our last visit in the foreseeable future. The plan was to do some airplane photography on Saturday, and visit our favorite eateries afterwards.
I've been following XG for a while now and all these years taught me that XG equals high quality in all aspects: music, visuals, performance, etc. You would notice while watching their music videos that the work they put into it is...
Ghost Dog was the first Jarmush's movie I've ever seen. I bought a magazine with an attached DVD (there was a time when this was common) and fell in love. I've seen most of his movies since then, but this one always hits different...
“As long as space and time divide you from anyone you love… love will simply have no choice but to go into battle with space and time and, furthermore, to win.” The longer I live, the more deeply I learn that love — whether we call it...
I stumbled upon the CSS property corner-shape recently and it’s pretty cool. It allows you to specify the shape of an element’s corners and works with border-radius. I threw together this demo to show it in action: See the Pen...
I’ve been running Known as my social posting hub for a while now. It’s a solid IndieWeb-friendly CMS that handles status updates, photos, and syndication to various silos. Recently I upgraded my instance for the first time in about four...
I was reluctant to write this post because AI is already talked about a lot on Bear & I've seen a complaint about us being sort of an echo chamber and needing other topics to talk about - that's a fair complaint, but fuck it I blog, at...
Cyclists gathered in the early morning, getting ready to set off on the 209km Willy Warmer Audax ride. My group wouldn’t be back until well after dark. In retrospect, the first two weeks of January were a honeymoon period after the...
I remember when I was a kid my dad told me that he watched the first moon landing in 1969 live on TV, which blew my mind because the moon landing did (and does) seem like ancient history to me, like something that happened in the distant...
Though philosophers are often (if not quite accurately) thought to have been asking the same questions for thousands of years, philosophers throughout history have responded in their work to the circumstances of their day. [photo by...
(Get to all the parts in this series via the series post.) At the end of the previous part in this series we added @capire/common to the host project use-capire, and without doing anything else -- no referencing of this reuse package's...
Adequacy became a credential you earn instead of a condition you inhabit—and the system selling you solutions is the system that revoked it in the first place. You are not broken. The diagnosis is the disease. Every “30 under 30” list...
Hey hello there! You can go on and ignore this, it was just a small piece of work to overcome perfectionism. Just wanted to put something out there. Maybe I'll write something serious tomorrow, maybe not. But I wanted to get the ball...

For me, NetNewsWire is the perfect app for macOS. NetNewsWire 7.0, released this Tuesday (27th), reinforces this distinction. The implementation of Liquid Glass is so good that the app looks better (screenshots), without losing its...
It’s been busy since the new year. We had a 3-day weekend and I got some time to myself to mess around with new things. I’m not even a half-decent guitar player. When I’m alone, and I have a drink, I loosen up just a bit and I can make...

Cannot express how happy I am About a week and a half ago I noticed a snowflake at the end of the 10-day forecast. It started as a whopping 6-8 inches predicted for that upcoming Sunday which was pretty fucking great for actual snow...
In a digital world often defined by outrage, impatience, and keyboard warriors, Matt Chung stands out: not for being loud, but for choosing kindness. By day, Matt focuses on RubyCoded, a company he co-founded together with his friend,...
Lee Chong Ming, writing for Business Insider (possibly paywalled): Can AI feel anything at all? Anthropic’s in-house philosopher says the answer isn’t settled. When I read this sentence, I immediately thought of Hal, as in the HAL 9000...
(Screening courtesy of my in-laws and a generous Christmastime AMC gift-card) I just got home! At one point on the drive I found myself start-stopping right by the place I get my cans recycled, caught between some paramedics attending to...

Últimamente estoy consumiendo mucho (quizá demasiado, no lo voy a negar) contenido sobre Pokémon. No me refiero exactamente a los juegos, sino más bien a todo el lore que hay alrededor de ellos y dentro de este universo. Es cierto que me...
The vibe A fake-apocalypse snow week that still managed to bite, held together with space heaters, nostalgia dopamine, and the sheer satisfaction of typing “draft complete.” Highlights I survived SNOWMAGEDDON 2026! Most of the weather...
I've been meaning to write a post about unseen manager work. But I don't have the energy to do that right now because it's been consumed by today's unseen manager work. 😅 Delivering critical performance reviews, informing people they're...
Here’s something I’ll be talking about in my class on fantasy today — we’re just getting started with Phantastes. So I’m asking my students to look at the title page. First, let’s look at all the words on this page that help orient us:...
Quadruple Feature! It takes a while for a series to get good, to reach a level where you can't wait for the next book. It all varies, of course, depending on who you ask. Discworld doesn't kick off until the third books, Equal Rites,...
2,545 feet of elevation gain, microspikes, and age. Jen and I are ascending. The hike starts immediately with it. This was tougher than the last time. That last time was seven and a half years ago. I was 40 then. We’re in Rocky Mountain...
Pošto je generisanje koda postalo drastično jeftinije - veće je pitanje sad šta napraviti nego kako. A jos veće pitanje: zašto?
Went to Costco on empty stomach at 1pm a day before a snowstorm. Got in and out in less than an hour. Somehow avoided fast food drive-thrus on the way home. Put stuff away. Made a tuna sandwich with fresh dill, cucumbers and Greek yogurt...
Eu achei que Janeiro ia ser um mês calmo já que na primeira semana eu não tinha achado nenhuma música legal. Pensei que seria um daqueles meses que ia ter que pular o post... até que não aconteceu e veio uma lista enorme de coisas. E...
Wellp, today I got yet another denial from social security, which tells me this ain’t gonna change any time soon.The previous denial came with a whole bunch of transphobia and also a claim that I am able to work, doing jobs which simply...
Musings and ramblings on programming and things
🍫 Jump to Recipe The Intro I recently got my hands on a melanger and have been trying my hand at chocolate making. Only after starting this hobby, I found out that there are very few sources on the internet for home-scale chocolate...
This week was a rather cold one, it rained on the weekend and the days have been much chiller since then. It’s winter so it’s to be expected, but the region where I live isn’t often this cold! In any case not a lot of things happened...
It has been a week on NoFap; praise God! I've struggled with lust for a long time, but I finally feel that I have been given grace from this sin. My prayer life has only become richer over the course of this week, and for that I am...
We try to have as much fun as possible in the department, because everyday life is hard enough. A quick-witted and funny response not only immediately lights up conversations, it also helps to create a good working atmosphere in general....

I generally don't read or write poetry, but I wrote this a few years ago, randomly. I live by the sea, and when the tide is low you can walk to a small uninhabited island via a natural causeway. I penned this after one such visit. I...

January 2026. Fleetwood. I’d travelled the length of Blackpool’s tram network for some photos of a noble if faded seaside town and a GBG tick. And, while the Beer Shed looks a bit plain micropub, it’s another exemplar of the model,...

This is an entry from my journal. I comment on how the Internet can have a negative effect on one’s outlook when not used in moderation. The other day I was reading through my RSS feeds to catch up on the news. I noticed an article with...

Night, absence of sound, and David Bowie. I think I already mentioned a bunch of times in my previous not numerous posts that David Lynch is my favourite director, and how passionately I love Mulholland dr. (2001) and Twin Peaks (1990,...

Mitchell Hashimoto
I'm a developer living in Los Angeles, CA. I previously co-founded HashiCorp. Today I spend most of my time working on Ghostty, a new terminal emulator. I was part of the initial engineering team behind most of the HashiCorp products, such as Vagrant, Packer, Consul, Terraform, Vault, Nomad, Waypoint, and more. I don't work on any of those projects anymore. I was CEO for ~4 years, CTO for ~5 years, an individual contributor for ~2 years, and then left the company in 2023. I fly airplanes. ✈️ I'm an FAA licensed private pilot with an instrument rating (PPL ASEL IR). I currently fly a Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet. I frequently share pictures of my flights.
