Iâm really enjoying getting back into ice skating, but I can only get to the rink once a week (at least over the summer -- I'm aiming for twice weekly once Schools re-open) and I have the itch to do more skating than that. Where I live weâre blessed with a seaside park with lots of smooth paths, a recently...
Two days ago, a child privacy trial that BBC says may be the biggest threat yet to Instagram and Facebook started in the US.As usual: If you like what you find here, thanks in advance for your subscription (possibly but not necessarily paid) or, even better, one-time donations for any amount, or consulting, writing...
Iâm working on a project that generates multiple .tar.gz archives, and I need to combine them into one final file. I thought I could just cat the bytes together, but that doesnât work. This seemingly simple task exposed my flawed understanding of tar and gzip. To my fix my code, I first had to fix my mental model â...
There isnât a lot to do out here. Sometimes we sit on opposite sides of the couch watching TV. Sometimes we sit close. I like to put my head on your shoulder. But watching television gets stale, so sometimes we face each other, our knees touching, and we tell each other stories to pass the time. âOkay,â I said to...
Say what you like. Beer is pretty good but, be honest, toast is the best. See that there? My yellow tomatoes on cream cheese mixed with my green onions, chives and basil.

During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge. Todayâs TDC says: Donât baobab trees look like theyâre just the tip of something much bigger? Maybe it is some creature or alien sleeping deep down in the soil, with only part of its head sticking out. For todayâs Daily...

Yes, it is in fact real, Iâm holding it in my hands, and after what feels like years of Flipper teasing everyone with this ominous device in various online posts, I can finally confirm that it is real. The BUSY Bar is a 250 gram desk device by Flipper Devices, the company behind the Flipper Zero and the still very...
Tracy Chevalier is best known for her book about Vermeer, Girl with the Pearl Earring, but her skill - whether writing about a 17th century Dutch servant or a Quaker newly arrived in pre-Civil War America - is her ability to transport the reader to that exact time and place. Being jilted at any time is painful but...
It is, of course, shot beautifully and it moves with incredible pace for such a long, miserable movie. But it always feels kind of uncomfortably caught between the spy thriller and the serious period drama. Full of odd little digressions and a sense, almost, of unreality. It's strange to say that this movie is...
