Note: Jan 18, 2026 7:35 PM: Had a great afternoon/eveninf with the family. Got out to our local art museum and spent an hour coloring, crafting and reading. Then we went to the a nearby arboretum to see there new changes post Christmas event. After that grabbed some BBQ from a local shop. Messy with the kids but the food was …

Note: Jan 15, 2026 11:32 PM: Didn’t realize this was Edgar Wright. There’s hope for it.

Note: Jan 15, 2026 10:18 AM: Testing some changes that should trigger automatic commits when new notes/posts are published.

Note: Jan 15, 2026 9:50 AM: Well I stayed up way too late finishing the new Running Man. It was better than I expected. But it also seems like they were setting it up for a sequel which I’m not particularly excited about.

Note: Jan 14, 2026 10:40 PM: Didn’t realize this was Edgar Wright. There’s hope for it.

Note: Jan 14, 2026 10:32 PM: The new Running Man movie is out on Paramount+ now. Just clicked play. There’s no way this is as good as Arnold’s. Still need to read the book too.

Note: Jan 14, 2026 9:35 PM: Used Google’s Antigravity to spruce up the editor I use to write blogposts. I went for something that emulated the simplicity of the WriteFreely editor. It’s about as simple as it gets. Just a mostly blank page with some simple commands to manage saving and publishing. It did a really …

Note: Jan 14, 2026 9:27 PM: https://www.garbageday.email/p/where-are-the-democrats More great work from the Garbage Day team.

Working on my blog: <![CDATA[I like the way Dave Winer handles his blog. He posts stuff throughout the day that all show up a single chunks of his blog grouped by day. Each input has it’s own permalink and then each day has a link (which he sends out in a nightly email or RSS feed). I’m trying to structure my …

January 1, 2026 at 7:25 PM: New year, new posts? Hopefully. The blog has been down for the last 2 months because I broke it trying to modernize the editor I host to edit posts in the browser, merge that into my Hugo blog directory and combine the installation of both blog and editor into the same YunoHost install script. Long …

September 2025

September 26, 2025 at 3:42 PM: Been getting through a good bit of reading lately. Mostly working my way through The Will of the Many which I’m really enjoying. It has influences from the Red Rising series around the structure of the world and it’s hierarchy. The magic system is also interesting. It feels a little bit …

August 2025

August 22, 2025 at 6:22 PM: I’ve spent a bit of time recently refactoring and modifying the codebase that I use as a web editor for this blog. Mainly using different LLM coding assistans to see how well they can handle making changes and adding features. I really don’t need any of the changes and it’s a lot …

July 2025

July 10, 2025 at 12:11 PM: I added some simple analytics to this site finally. So now I can prove that I’m the only one reading it :). Mostly it was just wanting to check out self hosting Umami analytics. Following Jack over at baty.new makes me feel better about all the tinkering I do with this setup. He’s much …

July 3, 2025 at 6:11 PM: One thing that I just realized my new scribbling setup doesn’t currently support is physical media. I don’t often get a chance to sit down and listen to a record but I did get some good ones for Father’s Day this year that I’ve been listening to. I’m sure I can manually add listens but I’ll have to …

Is it still called scrobbling?: I read Filterworld by Kyle Chayka last year and have been trying to be more mindful of where algorithms are influencing my consumption. Music is probably the biggest portion of that consumption. For the last 10 years or so I have largley moved away from listening to albums or making specific …

July 2, 2025 at 2:27 PM: Did some research into why physical writing is linked to so many memory and learning benefits. More of the brain is activated when physically writing. Including many of the “hubs” that are important for memory formation. The act of deciding what to write and thinking that through also …

June 2025

June 3, 2025 at 10:50 AM: I tried to get Pages CMS set up on my server to publish to this Hugo-based blog. I was unable to get it working. I use Yunohost to handle a lot of the stuff I run there including LDAP. I think the auth redirects are causing the issue. I ran into what I believe to be the same problem trying to deploy …

May 2025

2025-05-13T13:29:36: I’ve been knocking around an idea in my head for a while. I want to understand some of the things that are really impactful to humans but seem to be modern enough that I don’t know how or why it’s impactful without an evolutionary link. For example; writing on physical paper has …

2025-05-02T13:28:16: Spent some time today cleaning up a lot of unused apps and domains on my vps. It was pretty easy with YunoHost through the dashboard. I moved some services around to other domains and simplified a lot of stuff. I think I may be able to reduce the size of my server now that there is less stuff …

2025-04-03T15-01-10: Big storm last night. It was initially supposed to hit us around 10pm but was really slow moving and took until about 12:50am to get going. At least that’s when it woke me up because I fell asleep waiting for it. I did stay up and watch the lightning and wind for almost an hour before it was …

Common Side Effects: Watched the first episode of Common Side Effects today. It was free on YouTube. Really enjoyed it. I’m a big King of the Hill and Mike Judge fan. Looks like the first couple episodes are available on the Adult Swim app but I’ll need to wait for a while on new episodes to become …

2025-03-03T14:34:22: It is really cool being able to write directly from my browser. This definitely lends itself well to smaller, quicker posts while not at a computer. For longer form stuff I think I’ll probably stick with vim or a dedicated markdown editor. But I’m really pleased with this.

2025-03-03T10:46:58: Made some more updates to the web editor created for writing content for this blog. One of the big changes was going from a simple `textarea` to using the medium-editor node module. This is the first official, non-testing post I’m creating from it. The experience is pretty nice.

Feb 28, 2025 4:08 PM: This is a test from a new webapp I created to write markdown and save it to my blog directory on my VPS. Hopefully this will make it a bit easier to publish content.

Change Server Time: I created a new script that wraps hugo new to create shorter, untitled posts. It uses the date function to set values for directories, filename and post title. By default it was using UTC so any post I made in the evening, ending up in the next day. After a bit of searching I found it’s …

A Long Week: Everyone but me has gotten sick this week. Flu across the board and an ear infection for our youngest. I know they said at the beginning of flu season that they didn’t expect great efficacy from the vaccine this year and that is certainly showing in our household. I’ve managed to avoid …

Too Much to Read: I wrapped up the first three books in the Red Rising series and moved on to Wool by Hugh Howey, the first in the Silo trilogy. The series has been really good and a coworker who read the books said the first two seasons cover the first book really well. Rather than wait for season three, I’m …

Testing Rss Updates: Testing some changes I recently made to my RSS feed to try and improve how it shows up in micro.blog timeline.

Curation: Towards the end of last year I read Kyle Chayka’s Filtwrworld and since then I’ve had the theme of curation stuck in the back of my head. Basically everything on the Internet has turned into a “feed” over the last decade or so. And every major feed has algorithms applied to …

Curation: Over the last 15 years it feels like everything has become a “feed” and all of these “feeds” are curated by algorithms. I get why this started happening. The amount content being generated increased significantly and to keep up would be nearly impossible. So those who control …

Morning Star: Finished my reread of the final book in the original Red Rising trilogy tonight. The ending comes quicker than I remember it. Lots of events in a really short period where the rest of the book jumps weeks at a time. It does maybe make it seem a little rushed. But I feel like it covers everything and …

Snowing Again: Enjoying looking out the window watching the snow come down. We got a big snow earlier this year. More than we’ve ever had at once in my lifetime. I liked watching it come down and seeing everything all smooth and quite and bright. I did not like shovelling it and was glad when the last of it …

Got my Mastodon and Bluesky accounts set up for cross-posting last night and it looks like everything is working. Micro.blog made it pretty straightforward to configure. I’ve never been really active on social media and have mostly just used it to consume and discover content. It will be a new …
