My post about my insulin pump failing 1-2 times a day while I was on vacation hit Hacker News, and then BoingBong - which I'm not a fan of, actually. A lot of the commenters on Hacker News seemed very scared about how angry I was. I...
It's never been easier to launch a blog. There are so many great options out there, and many of them are free. You can have it up and running in no time. Then there's just that one little detail left: content. It can be easier said than...
I often say on here that genocide is the worst crime that human beings have ever invented. But that’s not really true. There’s one worse. Omnicide: the killing of everything. Unfortunately, omnicide is not a fantasy. The project is...
We spent summers in Egypt when I was a child. There wasn't much to do besides watch television. When I'd run out of books and my iPod was charging and I'd exhausted my brother's patience, I would sit with my family and watch TV. There...
坐在街边小店里喝饮料，这几日的夜晚微风习习，甚是凉爽。旁边是一家中餐馆，不知什么时候添了点唱机。断断续续的歌声随风飘来，并不那么真切。可人在异国他乡，听见这样的声音，心里还是会轻轻一动。 也正是这样的声音，让我忽然想起十几年前在 CHCH 的夜晚。那时受邀到一位老华人家中聚餐。饭后，我们一行人去了花园里的木屋，打开点唱机选歌。让我意外的是，曲库竟然还算新，2010...
Hello, Yesterday, I finished work, started cooking, ate dinner and cleaned the kitchen. After talking to my mom on the phone, I did what I like to do sometimes, and namely, to turn off the wifi on my phone. The plan is to not be glued to...
Hi fellow bloggers, I want to dedicate the banner position of my blog to Pride Month. If you want to do the same, here is how (for BearBlog users): Add the HTML snippet into the header directive. You can also change the link and the...
I’ve received a few emails from people wondering if it’s too late to join Junited 2026. It isn’t. You can join today or in a week, whatever suits your schedule. Same thing with the other annual “challenges” I’ve been running for the last...
You probably know the ones: they feel sort of suedey when they’re brand new, but they don’t stay new for long. I work in a public library, and believe me, these covers are grime magnets. Today I handled several that had accumulated a...
小時候，阿嬤家的客廳是這種綠色大理石地板，還有擺綠色大理石的椅子。炎炎夏日躺在上面，那可真叫透心涼！ 我也喜歡對著電風扇張大嘴巴，總覺得可以吸進冰冰涼涼的風，感覺像大口大口的喝冰冰涼涼的水。 現在想想，吸到的根本就只有扇葉上的灰塵吧。 ← Previous | →
June the first, the start of Pride month. A perfect excuse for me to come up with yet another seasonal theme for Bear. This new Pride theme is based on my Bearming theme, meaning any add-ons you use will still work fine and look good. It...
patience. that is a valuable skill that humanity is gradually losing the more technology "improves". thanks to the advent of tech products like social media, LLMs, generative AI, algorithms, and streaming services, we are literally...
Another person followed me on Mastodon with the profile saying they left tech for good. It hits home because I've been thinking about leaving tech for a few years now, after the AI sloppageddon arrived. The problem is, technology has...
One day, I called my mom, and out of nowhere she brought up a story I had completely forgotten. Apparently, when I was in third grade, our class had one of those introduce yourself assignments. One of the questions was simple: what is...
Yesterday in my first post on Bear I mentioned that it was my first public post online in over a decade, and that I haven’t used social media in that time. When I say I haven’t used social media for that long, I really mean I haven’t had...
