Soy algo lúdita al rechazar el uso de lA a la hora de hacer arte. Considero que escuchar música o leer un libro que fue escrito enteramente, parcialmente o ayudado por alguna herramientas artificial no vale la pena mi tiempo. ¿La razón?...
A couple of weeks ago I read The Last Quiet Thing by Terry Godier, and it made me very conscious of what my devices were asking from me. I keep talking about seeking calm to everyone who’ll listen, and still I hadn’t seen it like that:...
I love taking notes, but one problem that I have is that that I start cherishing every notebook that I start. I can't seem to keep my notes messy. Eventually, I start structuring the notes, doing cleaner handwriting, adding a cover or...
For those of you in the UK. Do you remember who got the coveted Christmas number 1 slot in 2009? Do you remember how it came to be? I ask only because I randomly saw this post from my own blog. Thanks for reading and keeping RSS alive....
In which I challenge myself to draw a pokemon every day until I stop Hope y'all had a great weekend! Mine felt exceedingly short. You see, a bigoted, elderly politician who has done untold damage to the rights of women, queer people,...
Every time I look at Sven's blog I get jealous. I loved his previous design so much I copied it (with his permission). His new design is so fun and it's making me want to make mine more fun (no copying this time though). I'm just not...
Ukraine has turned drone warfare into an engineering feedback loop. A crew flies a system until Russian electronic warfare finds a weakness. Operators report the failure. Engineers change the radio, navigation or software, then send a...
Este script para Bash (y otro para la shell Fish) muestra los datos metereológicos de una estación de Meteoclimatic Si hace unos días compartí por el blog el plasmoide que hice para mostrar esos mismos datos de Meteoclimatic en Plasma 6...
I’ve been reading 1960s news (my grandpa saved a bunch of news yearbooks) as an alternative to internet and so far the most striking—and this goes for other books I’ve lead from fifties through nineties was that it was from a world of...
This comment from Bruno, on Bluesky (pt_BR): Instagram launches new tool that drains your entire bank account and kills your family. Here’s how to turn it off 👇 Instagram doesn’t (yet) do that. His joke references the recent news that...

Aviso para navegantes: se viene queja sobre queja. Mierda de economía capitalista No tengo mucho que decir aquí, salvo que he cambiado de trabajo. Es una historia complicada: la empresa en la que estaba antes (A) fue comprada por otra...
GravityLoops, my gravity simulator in Interlisp and LOOPS, can finally show something on the screen. The program now animates a body of mass like the Moon interacting under gravity with a body of mass like the Earth. The dots in the...
It has been a bit since I updated this page, and quite a lot has changed since January. Some of it has been exciting, some of it has been hard, and most of it has happened while I was just trying to keep the normal parts of life...
Here. I haven’t had time to compare this to Professor Kramnick’s rejoinder to the official Report, but if any readers have taken the time to examine both Appiah’s report on literary studies, and Kramnick’s essay, please feel free to post...
Another quick update to Wasat, my Gemini Protocol client library for Python. With v0.5.0 I've added a method for getting the list of currently-trusted hosts, and also added a public property to the client class for getting access to the...
The first things I noticed about 2029 First Avenue were the decorative lintels above the second floor windows. Attractively styled for window lintels on upper First Avenue, I figured this stubby holdout wedged beside two brick buildings...
Collaborative writing is rewarding. In the past few months, I’ve been writing a lot. Not as much here, but for Aphera. Between our newsletter, blog, direct email feedback, and social media networks, I might spin up a draft and then...
Repeat that, repeatJames and I have come up with a collaborative writing project that you’re welcome to join as well! The idea is to share your thoughts on a poem through writing: there are no restrictions on the format, as long as you...
Dear reader,For a long time, Mullvad VPN stood as the embodiment of a perfect privacy-focused company. From innovative features and data minimization to responsible marketing, Mullvad checked every box that mattered. It almost appeared...
PHP version stats: July, 2026 Written on 2026-07-09 Welcome back to another blog post about PHP's version usage across the community. You can read the previous edition here, but as always I'll include historic data in this post as well....
Durante los últimos días una combinación de "grinding" y odio real se mezcló con envidia y frustración y todo un país fue señalado con el dedo injustamente, esta vez nos tocó a...
In the face of impossibly large numbers of things to post about, rising by the minute, I will just pick little bits of stuff, so I will at least be telling you something. Now, about where I live now, on the third (top) floor of the Avant...

I came across Martijn’s post on Bubbles today and would like to take this opportunity to answer his question from my point if view … I can already hear you complaining that you shouldn’t use tables for layout. Why exactly? CSS is simple,...

I still remember well how I used to save everything: music, photos, eBooks, documents – just everything. The fear of missing out or losing something was simply too great. But at some point, I realized: I had everything, but I wasn’t...
A description of my blogging workflow, from idea to publish and more.
A brief tribute to my aunt, Dr Margaret Turnbull, who died recently.
Somewhere from the time I called for a tuktuk and then getting to Noi Cafe to have my first installment of me time I found I had really little. Not good feelings which I would like. Not bad which seem sometimes to hang out when I least...
It has been interesting going back to work and getting up to speed with my new team’s systems, some of which are third-party and others are Very Much Invented Here. I find myself thinking about this quotation a lot: It seems that...
“Americans are probably reading more words than ever before. What has changed is what they read, and how. People are bombarded with emails, text messages, X posts, Reddit threads, Instagram captions. This explosion of textual fragments...
Eu não sou muito fã de carros. Ou melhor, eu não sou fã de carros modernos. Acho o design deles iguais e eu já comentei aqui sobre como terem as exatas três cores hoje em dia. Salve pouquíssimas exceções. No entanto eu também não sou fã...
Missing In ActionI am a bit disappointed at myself for breaking my relatively consistent weeknote habit—missing out on W26 and W27. I am now writing this on Friday to make sure W28 is not cancelled! Life just kinda caught up, and partly...
July 2026. Sheffield. It’s that time of year again, when local newspapers, even the subscription ones without clickbait, send reporters out to find your city’s top beer gardens, and invite comments from folk who like to reminisce about...
Ní haingil atá romham ná soilse an tslua,ná cór na naomh ag canadh os cionn na cré,ach seomra feithimh fuar is cléireach crom,is leabhar mór ar oscailt ar an mbord roimh ré.Ní fhéachann sé aníos, is ní ghlaonn sé m’ainm,ach scríobhann go...
It has been 12 days since I last published “daily” Pook-Emu Bee links due to some combination of being busy and not feeling my best. Both of those blockers exist today, but I have time to squeeze in a new edition. I photographed this bee...
