There is an interesting discussion going on in the OSMF run discourse instance on community.osm.org regarding regulation of use of LLMs in communcation there. First a bit of background The OSMF in 2021 introduced a new behavior control framework for the forum and some mailing lists – which i criticized for its...
Like many others1, MEEK’s Fabulous has been stuck on-loop in my head for most of this year. What a fucking banger of a track, amirite? And yet… somehow, today was the first time I figured I’d watch the music video. If you’ve not seen it (or perhaps not even heard the song), go do that now; I’ll wait. The outdoor...
Thomas Frank writes about politically noxious nostalgia for Harpers. It’s connects the bicentennial in 1976 with our current impoverished political moment. I think it strikes a chord. Donald Trump didn’t invent the eternal return of nostalgia any more than Ronald Reagan invented the retro style of the Seventies and...
While Alex and I usually top our vanilla ice cream with a simple drizzle of olive oil and flaky sea salt, we might have to start rotating with Eric Kim’s No-Churn Ice Cream with Dalgona Butterscotch Sauce from Korean American!

In early 2026, Charles F. Millhouse, creator of New Pulp character Captain Stephen Hawklin, came out with a new collection of short stories set in the 1930s: The Classic Adventures of Captain Hawklin, one for each year from 1930 to 1939.

Here’s a map showing our route home, heading north: An interactive...
A while back, when I was talking about my witch Elowen Hale, I said that the Daggerheart playtest witch played a big role in who she is and what her character was like. I also said then, "When the new Dread add-on for Daggerheart is out, I'll come back to this and detail a bunch of witches." Well. It is out now. And...
Slip beneath the surface of a Late Cretaceous ocean—if you dare—and you enter the domain of one of Earth’s most spectacular marine predators: the mosasaur. Long before whales ruled the deep, these muscular, paddle-limbed lizards patrolled warm inland seas with the quiet confidence of creatures that knew very little...
Continuing the series on the notable changes in CIDER 2.0, let’s talk about ClojureScript - forever the trickier sibling in the CIDER family. I’ll start with a confession I’ve made before: I rarely use ClojureScript myself, which is a big part of why its support in CIDER has historically lagged behind Clojure’s....
