Una lista de cosas que me dan una felicidad infinita. Tortillas de maíz recién hechas (esta es la razón por la que empecé a escribir esta lista). Escuchar alguna canción favorita en la radio. Encontrar inesperadamente un gran libro en la...
“But is this actually philosophy?” Ethan Landes (Eindhoven University of Technology) is tired of experimental philosophers being asked The Question. And he’s tired of experimental philosophers “appeasing” those who ask it by “dressing up...
By: Thomas M. Nichols | Rating: 5/5This is a re-read (Total reads: 2).Tom Nichols wrote this in 2017, and all he describes only got worse. We're stuck in a spiral of education standards dropping, people embracing ignorance and experts...
Moving from the only home we'd known in our married life this spring required us to downsize in ways that once would have caused me oceans of anxiety. Certain material goods were so intertwined with my self-identity. As avid, life-long...
When I was in fifth/sixth grade (around 10-11) there were these incredibly obnoxious and loathsome older kids in my neighborhood and on my school bus. They were constantly shouting and yelling and trying to show off how cool and manly...

用 Tamper-monkey 集成 Kagi Translate 以及用 Docker Sandbox 使用 OpenCode 和 DeepSeek 我現在主要用 Kagi Translate 閱讀外文， Kagi Translate 提供了 瀏覧器插件，有三個我常用的功能： 1) 網頁全文翻譯 2) 選擇內容翻譯 3) 字典定義。但插件很久沒更新了，最近用下來也有兩個很影响使用的地方：...
I’m pretty ambivalent about this, so have been sitting on it for a few days. The details are here, and readers might as well decide for themselves whether it’s worth their time. The competition has a panel of good judges, albeit with a...

Is the world morally ordered? Do good things come to those who act well and bad things to those who act badly? Do the virtuous thrive and the wicked suffer? I will not -- you'll be disappointed to hear -- actually answer this question in...
For the majority of people in the western world, the concept of ‚free will‘ means to have as much freedom as the laws allow for. They assume that the laws only limit one’s freedom where the welfare of other people would be...
For some reason. Maybe because it's beautiful weather today in Siem Reap and I have felt so good walking I need some dissipation. So I go downtown. Sit at viva! And have my share of their cheap draft beers. There's other places I could...

A few months back, Pi’s creator Mario Zechner gave a talk on developing Pi and slowing things down. It resonated with me so much that I wanted to try out the harness. I’m also getting increasingly wary of how bloated Claude Code and...
The Bracelet by Yoshiko Uchida, illustrated by Joanna Yardley, 1976, 1993. Emi is a young girl, a second-grader, in a Japanese American family in 1942. After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, there was widespread paranoia about people...
I saw Disclosure Day a few weeks (months?) ago with friends. As we were leaving I noticed one of my friends looked sad (the movie wasn't that bad), so I went over to see what was wrong. She was talking to another friend about something...
I decided I was bored with the previous design, but wanted something that was in keeping with the previous design (brutalist and using a monospace font) yet different. I abandoned the yellow accent and went back to blue, my favourite...
Today I mowed the soccer field at the "community center" where I volunteer. With a push mower. 🥵 As a kid, I spent a lot of time mowing on our family Christmas tree farm. I enjoy it (although a riding mower is better than a push mower)....
This is the second installment of Internet Adventures. In the previous episode I highlighted a few fantastic blogs. An internet astronaut such as yourself (my reader) knows that blogs aren't the only cool things happening on the...
Last week I finished my third Emily St. John Mandel novel in a row, The Glass Hotel, and it has been a fascinating journey. Mandel has built a marvelous multiverse across Station Eleven, The Glass Hotel, and Sea of Tranquility: each book...
Well the year turns on, and that means, of course, that I have conventions coming up. I mean sure, I have a birthday too, but that's somehow less important. Or at least, like, from your point of view. Anyhow, on Saturday September 12th...
During my last trip I used Uber. I use it now and then, when I need to and (above all) when I’m abroad. I redownloaded the app on my iPhone and logged in. All good. Good service, just as I remembered it. Maybe even better than I...

Last year, TrainerRoad launched its integration with Zwift, and that’s how I’ve been doing all of my indoor structured cycling workouts ever since. As I wrote at the time, TrainerRoad has been my favorite training app since I got into...
📚 Book 19 of 2026 - Finished (8/19): The Things We Never Say by Elizabeth Strout (4/5⭐) I've been really careful about the books I choose to read lately since I'm still not in the right mental space to read anything too heavy. I'm not...
I was sorry to hear of the death of that gifted comic actor Chris Langham, whose career ended too soon and all too ignominiously. There's an excellent obit in the Telegraph, but it's likely paywalled. Here's something I wrote about...
Throwback updates. I updated some links, and provided more context about rates. I also changed Sprint to T-Mobile, to reflect the merging of Sprint and T-Mobile. Since this is a throwback article, it probably will not receive updates...
The other day I was saying I was bored and confused with the role of software developer. But I think I may have a bit of clarity now. Maybe I’m not bored and confused. Maybe I just hate it all. I received an email from Ruby Central the...

The primary reason I bought this watch was the ability to display and navigate using proper offline maps. Garmin doesn’t have maps for India. But the OpenStreetMaps community has maps that can be loaded into Garmin. There are many...

What song do you wish you had written? Happy Birthday? Bohemian Rhapsody? Lyrics is where my brain focuses, which takes me to Cohen, Garvey, McCartney, Swift, Bush… But meaning matters and this song is such a gentle exploration of how...
Growing up we’d gather round the TV to watch The Grand Ole Opry, Hee-Haw on the regular, and any countrified special that aired. Every character on those stages were larger than life, though sequins likely added to this magnification....
I am not what one would call the greatest player of Halo to ever grace this planet. If you can believe it, I am rather mediocre. I have moments of greatness, but I’m also very much a casual player. Halo is a game I can pick up and play...
Don’t worry, I can connect to Wi-Fi networks, I just lost mobile data access and phone calls with my current SIM chip. You see, the silly government of my beautiful country decided that the best way to stop scam, blackmail and other...
