Every time I feel good about myself and about life in general, I notice there's literally just one thing that is different for me: I have money and I won't struggle to pay bills for the near future. Just that. There's money in the bank. I can breathe. Even my psychiatrist talked about this with me: first I should...
This late morning while drinking a glass of water after waking up to rehydrate, I was of course scrolling social media and saw a post about Julia Roberts mentioning Morrissey, cancel culture and art. Besides thinking, I see her point, I thought about that one girl whose blog I used to read 22 years ago […]
I got seriously into bikes back in high school (Class of 1991, if you're wondering). Or maybe bikes found me - they were the perfect match of not mainstream, yet sort of tough athletically. There was lots of engineering stuff to think about, but also adrenaline and excitement. I also was into photography in high...
Gerrymandering is a fancy word for redrawing the voting districts in your favor. In “area control” board games (games where you win a region by having the most representation there, and you win the game by winning most regions) the tension is usually to not overcommit where you are already winning and to recognize...
One of my most successful side projects had exactly 2 daily active users.
Roshan: [[File:Dallas Fed - AI Scenarios.png|thumb|upright=2|Go forth and multiply; and fill the Earth and subdue it; so that you may grow at a steady rate]] There is a tide in the affairs of men which, taken at its flood, leads on to sustainable 1.9% year on year GDP growth.

Eine schöne Sache, wenn so ein Konzertgang in den Geburtstag eines wunderbaren Freundes eingebettet ist. Definitiv ein Format, an das ich mich gewöhnen könnte. Am Nachmittag luden J & A zu Ehren von A’s sich divers jährendem 18. Geburtstag ein und versammelten so eine sehr angenehme Meute von Leuten—inklusive...
A Raquel Varela foi saneada da RTP por ter usado o termo "o partido fascista Chega". Vamos continuar a ouvir as suas ideias.
2025-10-11 Tengo un vicio... sobre-pensar En lugar de hacer las cosas, analizo una cantidad increíble de escenarios. ¿Me conviene hacerlo? ¿Cómo sería la mejor manera? ¿Después de hacerlo me sentiré bien? Admiro mucho a aquellas personas que no se cuestionan si crear algo, escribir sobre un tema, preguntar algo a...

What does citizenship mean today? A naturalized Canadian explores identity, freedom and belonging after giving up his birth citizenship.
I’ve been using Claude Code extensively for personal projects, and similar AI coding tools at work. Recently I came across this excellent blog post that resonated with a lot of my experience. One part stuck with me though: Noah emphasizes that tools fail with LLMs when they’re “overly complex,” with the Unix...
On day five in the Schwarzwald, we hiked another one of Baiersbronn’s great "Himmelswege" trails. While the hike started along forest roads, the highlight was circling a tranquil, mirror-like lake surrounded by lush moss. The route unfolded through varied terrain, from narrow fern-lined paths to softly lighted mossy...
This year's theme was Clear the Table! A vision Tom has had for good while, where folks could dramatically clear a table of objects — you know, like in movies when they move everything aside and lay down a map for a heist. + photos (and video)
I’ve been doing so well. I’ve been blogging every day now for over a month. But today, it has been a long day, and my brain is empty. I have a list of posts I want to do, but no ambition to actually write them. Instead, you get this. Me blogging about blogging, again. At a certain point, the daily bloggers out there...
October 2025. Bucharest. Romania. Yes ! It’s those forrin muck posts you love ! It’s Mrs RM’s fault. With the old folk heading downhill she’s taking every opportunity to kill the planet fly to Eastern Europe for £20 while we can. A fellow ticker, I expected her to be tackling the “Rest of World” badges… Continue...
This year, I wanted to celebrate for no real reason at all. At first, I wanted to get friends together and celebrate with a meal, but then it seemed like a lot of organizing, and so many of them are away. So I choose to spend time with Uma and Anju. I chose... The post 45 first appeared on Thejesh GN.
I first heard of Elixir by discovering Bonifre, the coolest Fediverse software ever. I was very curious about it, but, as usual, I was overwhelmed with information, and I just labeled it as an intriguing and very niche programming language. Then, while having a beer with Giacomo at WHY2025, we got in a super...
Estos días son fiestas patronales en mi pueblo. Es cierto que es divertido salir, ver que hay mucha más actividad que de costumbre, ver a gente a la que habitualmente no ves porque están enterradas en trabajo o porque viven fuera. Pero esto acarrea también no ser dueño de tu propio tiempo y en ocasiones verte...
WIP summer at blaakProgress today, last week I couldn't work on it. This is as much as I can do in 30 mins. My hand says now stop. #art #wipThank you for following my feed! ♥ Leave a reply here.
Linux Mint badly needed a reinstall. I broke something by trying to run a simple gedit command to open several docs from one command, and it has not been the same ever since. Sigh! Gnome software, what can you do, eh? I lost all my gedit Snippets, External Tools and plugins just by running the aforementioned...
Although this is not directly related to tennis, I want to take a little time to share about the No So November movement, and how it can help people. This movement was created by Maddie Freeman, who wants to help us all find a healthy balance with technology use. She hopes people can take a day, a week, or even a...

After resuming my bullet journal a couple weeks ago, I started planning my next creative music endeavours. This time, back to writing and producing my own messages. What's taking shape, out of my scribbled notes on paper, are two distinct concept albums. Probably shorter than the previous one. I'm seeing 6-song...
Abrir um site de oportunidades de trabalho é se dar de cara com uma lista infinita de vagas destinadas à venda e atendimento ao público. Hoje até colocam um nome mais bonitinho: consultor, promotor, facilitador. Parece até que seu trabalho tem significado, que o que você tá fazendo possui importância. Mentira. Tem...
