Last year I read an abysmal amount of books, like only a couple. So this year I made a promise that I would read more books and get caught up on my reading. This isn't the first time I've done this. I feel like I've tried and failed plenty of "Read 100 Books" challenges on and off throughout my life. Regardless of...

“The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing which stands in the way,” William Blake wrote in his most spirited letter. “As a man is, so he sees.” Because how we look at the world shapes the world we see, every act of noticing is an act of worlding. The Latin root of notice...

What I’m going to tell you today might seem incredible, but just the same way as LLMs are banned from many workplaces these days, or mobile apps were outlawed by many an IT department 15 years ago, I was consulting 20 years ago for a large firm (a very large Swiss firm, actually) in which… Open Source code was...

For roughly 20 years, from the 1990s to the 2010s, the family computer (always a desktop) was the household symbol of modernity in Brazil, a prerequisite for promising futures and the only gateway to the internet. It competed for space with the TV or, in larger homes, earned its own room where residents did...

Το θεματικό πάρκο είναι σχεδιασμένο με τέτοιο τρόπο ώστε να δώσει την εντύπωση πως είναι η ενσάρκωση αποκυημάτων της φαντασίας ή πως βρίσκεται σε κενό χρόνο. Οι επισκέπτες προσδοκούν να συναντήσουν τους αγαπημένους τους χαρακτήρες ή να βιώσουν το φαντασιακό καθώς γίνεται εκτατό. Πρόκειται για αυστηρά ελεγχόμενη...

My review of the fifth book in The Expanse science fiction saga, it just keeps being super good!

I have read nothing tangible about Silksong other than it seems to be causing service disruptions and it's a game, so I'm hoping it's about a traveling bard who journeys down the Silk Road singing songs about the dangers and characters they've encountered while running away from a vague and troubled past. Around Act...

I am unhinged. I waste the days. I have tics. I haven’t been sleeping well. I stare at the shuttle---the one I rented---in its bay when I walk by. Sometimes I go to the hangar when I have nothing to inspect, just to look at it. I imagine I am back navigating the asteroid field, which at the time I found stressful,...

In which I inhale 185 years of vintage lead dust It's been a busy couple of months in our household. we've been fixing up the partially collapsed room. During the renovations we settled on calling it a pantry. We are also trying to refinance our home loan as well as organising various trips over the next few months....

At first glance, this post may read like an ad, feel like an ad, but it’s not an ad. It just lists reasons that make me really, really like BBEdit, an app that I have long avoided and considered too complicated and complex for my humble computing needs. But last year, while I switched from the excellent Blot...

September has begun, and this means summer is pretty much over and autumn is around the corner (though some people dispute this ;)). To those who love summer autumn feels like the world is dying, but for me it's always been my favourite time of the year. The heat is gone, the morning air is crisp and cool, the...

For the longest time, my blog lived on a variety of platforms, with the latest being OMG.lol. Having a history of web development, I wanted something cleaner, faster, and developer-friendly. I have had my eye on Eleventy for quite a while, I just needed time for one and a solid theme to start with. Enter Eleventy...

Bacchanalia Beneath the Wind Turbines, by the author Back in July I wrote a post here called The futility of constructing a better past & the necessity of imagining a better future, the essence of which was a rant against (what seems to be) an increasing wallowing in nostalgia, and how I didn’t much like it: And...

It is apparent to everyone that social media is distinctly a different experience today from how it initially developed. It has become a form of mindless consumption instead of a social space where one interacts with other genuine individuals. The concept of content, once merely used on Madison avenue, has become so...

In digital minimalism I’m always like “could people in 1978 do this?” Could they send letters and place calls? Then it’s okay that I use the digital equivalent of that. Were they always reachable? Nope. So then it’s okay that I walk away from internet sometimes. Could they listen to headphones? Maybe not audio books...

I switched this site over to using the Zola SSG around May of this year because when I originally wrote the bulky-ass HTML files that used to be this site, I had a voice in the back of my head swearing that most people with a personal site were not, in fact, maintaining 4 different 500+line raw HTML files for their...
