I've been using mockdown a lot recently. It's a free drawing app - but instead of recording pixels or vectors, it just records plain text. Which means, if you've already got a decent design system, you can sketch out a form or page...
2026 is a margin call on strategic ambiguity — and the underwriter is liquidating its own book Start with the bases, because they explain everything that follows without anyone having to assert a theory. After 2001, the United States...
I understand and don’t understand my brain. I had lunch with C., and I was happy the entire time. I really, really missed her. At the end of it, she asked if we could do this again soon. My mouth formed around yes, even as my brain...
A couple of months ago I did something very stupid and bricked my desktop. Then I realized that my source markdown directory for blog posts was not syncing with my cloud storage. So that left me with hundreds of HTML page blog posts, but...
Replied to ☕If you want to buy me a coffee by Simon (Firesphere.dev) Just black coffee please. Or a double espresso. In the evening, I might like a black liquorice tea to fall asleep to. But, in general, just a black coffee. Simon at...

“My life… runs back through time and space to the very beginnings of the world and to its utmost limits. In my being I sum up the earthly inheritance and the state of the world at this moment.” To be alive is to marvel — at least...
In which I challenge myself to draw a pokemon every day until I stop The weekend was not nearly as long as I wanted it to be - ever notice how 48 hours as a system of measurement is like, highly unreliable? Anyway, here's the pokemon...
It’s been a year since I retired — my last working day was June 6, 2025 — and I like being able to say that I’ve spent the year adding nothing, not one penny, to shareholder value. 🌴 * * * My hope for retirement was to get a lot of work...
I came across Iroh (via, via) today as it hit 1.0 and found it a really interesting solution to a problem I knew existed but had not thought a lot about. Judging from the comment sections, it seems pretty clear that lots of people are...
"When I die, delete my browser history." — Unknown When you die, there are lots of processes in place to deal with your body, your burial, your physical possessions, subscriptions and bank accounts. But what about your digital accounts...
The smallweb draws a certain kind of unhappy cynic. Chronically online, this kind of person sees evil everywhere. Probably depressed, fatigued with the state of the world, and able to find something wrong, immoral or reprehensible in...
I had a simple plan: lay back and read Proust. Just like most plans, this one went out the window before it started. The push of Dune is just too strong to hold. Chronicles of Dune is 6 books, but it's also often separated into two...
As with basically everyone else with "Technologist" in their job title, I have Opinions™ on the proposed legislation from the UK government to ban under-16s from social media. While the Labour Party have, at time of writing, yet to...
Dang. Still lagging on getting things written. So here's a flurry of updates that I cranked out in one sitting. It got a little long, so some sections got split out to post separately, and those will get posted as I finish editing them...

I've been scrolling the Bubbles new feed for a few weeks now. I think of it like trolling[1] for good feeds. This is a pretty high-volume feed so I can't click through every post so I end up just reading the title and trying to decide if...
June 2026. Sheffield. An aimless Sheff walk up and down hills to get those 15,000 calories in finds me at the string of public parks above the University, harassing ducks. I think they’re ducks. Floral Weston Park leads to the reservoir...
Over the last few days, I've been surrounded by so much random bullshit that I started to think that I was the one in the wrong. People started asking stuff like everything was falling down, many priorities were crashing into each other,...

Getting around the western Bronx by foot means encountering hilly streets, lots of hilly streets. The pitched terrain comes from ridges of bedrock formed millions of years ago extending into Northern Manhattan. Back in the early 1900s...
A feature I didn’t know existed in VS Codium saved my day! I was working on a untracked Git file (the zensical.toml configuration file) and accidentally, the whole file was overwritten and ctrl+z didn’t work. I thought my config was lost...
Your browser does not support the video tag. I've been struggling with an intense lack of focus lately. This is especially poignant when my mood is a bit heightened. Things have been decent enough lately; being well-fed, having the...
Introduction Prior to the start of the 2026 NBA Finals, I published NBA Finals Appearance Droughts, which was inspired by the Eastern Conference (and now NBA) champion New York Knicks making their first NBA Finals appearance since 1999,...

When I’m travelling in another country and meet a fellow Canadian, there is a feeling like we can relax and relate. With anyone else, there is a bit of barrier, even if we’re trying hard to be friendly. Now that I’ve had a chance to...
周末《指环王：中土对决》玩的上头，想起托老的墓地就在附近。 第二天一早，天气还算清朗，骑车出门，二十多分钟后，到了 Wolvercote Cemetery。很安静的公墓，有大片草地、树木、低矮墓碑、小礼拜堂。 谷歌地图上专门标出了 “J.R.R. Tolkien’s Grave”。公墓内部也有指引牌，很顺利的找到了墓碑。 墓碑上除了本名和生卒年份，还刻有 Beren 与 Lúthien。Beren 对应 Tolkien，Lúthien 则对应 Edith（他的爱人）。...

Yesterday I posted this on Mastodon (post link) I'm building a new habit here on Mastodon: instead of liking, I try to reply to at least 3 posts, especially on those that don't have comments yet and I love it. It's so much more personal!...

(fairly quickly detours into phenomenally raunchy free verse and then swivels again — but in there’s some stuff that’s way out of bounds for kids and the sexually modest) I was roused from my pastoral torpor this morning by a Facebook ad...

All functional approaches to the investigation of myths – in terms of their social, cognitive or emotional values – have arguably a common epistemological foundation. They all imply, if they do not explicitly assume, that the language of...
I’ve never had any Roku devices, but if you do, it might be time to punt them.It doesn’t sound like the plan is to build Roku and Fox into a walled ecosystem, but the Roku home screen will be used to promote Fox content.

I've only just realised, with a start, that today is National Beer Day. The date was chosen because it's the anniversary of the signing of Magna Carta, which has something to say about standard measures of beer and other drinks – and...
The simplification of my mode line is sticking, in that I like how it's turned out and I find it more useful to have it this simple. But I did notice something was missing: I'm a pretty constant but pretty casual user of projectile. I...
This is actually quite hard to do. I’m fairly proficient with the odd Python script and can cobble together a mean HTML/CSS/JS UI for a Python server, but making an actual desktop app? That’s another level. I’m just trying to turn my...
I've always been a hoarder. I refuse to get rid of things, and that goes both for the box of cables and old electronics down in that cabinet in my office and for the files in my Google Drive, external hard drives, on my computers and...
Raptors are so cool. I had a great time watching and interacting with this Harris Hawk and Lanner Falcon with Total Raptor eXperience in La Jolla. Such amazing birds with unique abilities that fit unique niches in ecology. It takes a lot...
I woke up with a migraine today. This happens sometimes. Often, paradoxically, after a night of more sleep than my typical amount of way too little. As I was slowly gaining consciousness I discovered an email from Ko-fi. Someone had sent...
My wife Jeeyun and I welcomed our second daughter in January. We thank God for what He’s already done in our family and what He will do as our family grows. This random indieblog.page link was picked on Monday, June 15th 2026. It was...
My first web presence was in sixth grade on this website called the express page. It was one of those websites where you could make your own little html page, like an off-brand geocities I guess (I never used geocities). They had some...

By now (happily) everyone wants to talk about digital autonomy, although some parties insist we talk about sovereignty. Fine. tl;dr: The discussions on digital autonomy are now going round in circles. Civil society and think tanks want...

The book follows a slave in the southern USA during his escape journey. Based on Huckleberry Finn: a book I’ve never read. Hence I read it with relatively few preconceptions. Topic-wise James tackles a dark chapter of humanity,...
Back in February the Paper Jam Comics Collective launched Growing up… and that. I thought it was about time I shared the comic I made for it. This comic is about how being a grown up means taking responsibility for something but it...
My default for making coffee for two is a cafetière. French press if you insist. It requires almost no thought, produces a consistent result, and has no moving parts to break. When I’ve got a bit more time and want a cleaner cup for two...
Si alguien me hubiera preguntado hace una semana cómo iba todo, probablemente habría respondido algo así como: “bien, pero mi batería social ya anda en las últimas”. La semana pasada y este fin de semana estuvieron algo ocupados. Entre...
