You’re only here for a short visit. Don’t hurry. Don’t worry. And be sure to smell the flowers along the way. Walter Hagen, 1956, The Walter Hagen Story I recently drove from Nova Scotia to Ontario and back, a trip I’ve been making for three decades, though for the first half of that time the trip started in...
“Sometimes you’re the windshield, sometimes you’re the bug. Sometimes it all comes together
” (And sometimes it doesn’t.) (From “The Bug” by Mary Chapin Carpenter)July 22, 2026Well, friends, I had been working on a piece of writing for several days, and it just wouldn’t come together. So today, it’s “just” photos....
Here’s the thing: iOS app development (and Mac, but to a lesser extent) is just constant churn. I thought I was getting a year off this year! But nope. There’s always something. Source: inessential: New NetNewsWire Crash in iOS 27 Beta Has Made Me a Bit Salty This is a valid point. Combined with the fact that most...
Being on vacation always reignites my motivation to read books. I mostly read on my Kindle, but during this vacation I read an entire book on my phone.

What Has Come Before Structure Origins of the Structure Pacing Creators First Terminology Distinction What If I Don’t Care, Though In many ways, this post feels like a waste of everyone’s time to me. As I recall, I have said everything here repeatedly during the life of the blog, for example. It also all seems clear...
Another book I'm going to have to add to the pile. A fascinating chapter moves between Sumner’s laudatory musings about how “competition is hurrying on the survival of the fittest” and Carnegie’s more tormented conscience. The concept of "competition" is embedded in our culture. The other night, in an effort to get...
I don’t do a lot of Python, at least not in my most recent life.1 However, I happen to have just written a production ML-DSA verifier in pure Python. It’s 350 lines of code (plus many more of tests), it supports all parameter sets, and I am pretty satisfied with it. You can fetch it as mldsa from PyPI, thanks to...
