Have completed downloading all the backups for a site I’m taking over for an organization. It was a WP site and I’m making something new, entirely static HTML with a Go backend to do some extra work.

Considering acting workshops for the kids this summer.

The buildup toward Lila’s wedding is getting unbearably tense. I can’t wait to see what happens!

I want my super power to be attaching a tracking device to an object just by looking at it from a distance

Who is the political consultant that suggested to so many candidates to go with the green yard sign? Is it an attempt to avoid classic red and blue?

Claude is my skeleton key LLM. When I encounter an issue that none of the others can tackle, I go to old Claude, and it usually solves it.

Browser windows, for me, are like pieces of paper on a desk—not full screen objects occupying ones whole view—snapshots of the mind at work, to be moved around in space as needed.

Today I saw a cyclist wearing a yellow vest and listening to The Verve Pipe on a speaker.

How early would I have to get up and take a walk for it not to feel as if I was putting you out or abandoning you to handle routines?

Is it possible that the only social media I need are the NYer letters to the editor?

According to the NWS (their Ft Worth office has the URL /fwd, which is odd, since this area is most commonly known as DFW), there are possibly storms developing today, but “a stout capping inversion will keep most locations dry!”

If you still believe, as I do, that having the right notebook is a contigency for getting stuff done, then continue to be convinced and in denial of your correcness, as I do.

A quick memory: back around a decade ago (a decade is 10 years) I was in charge of music at a church. That is called being “aworship pastor.” I was not very comfortable with that title, for reasons I can get into another time. I went through a trend of having the musicians play with a supplemental backing of pre-recorded music during church. The intent was to fill out our rather small lineup and provide a “bigger sound.” Feels like Spinal Tap just typing it out. Well, I myself would create these “backing tracks” on my computer at home—playing extra guitar parts, programming in extra drums, adding transition effects, adding the occasional frizzy keyboard arp part. I would usually wake up between 4 and 5 AM to put the finishing touches on the “backing track.” I put the team through a lot to make this work — and from where I now stand, it feels misguided and selfish.
