Any conversation

moved to a new city recently and going to a Movie club meetup tonight. nervous cause I'm a huge introvert but I gotta make friends some way.

I arrived Seoul, now. Stay for 5 days.

My son's new class doesn't have a Smith, Johnson, or Williams. It's the Hughes kid who breaks in at #96Name CensusUS Last Names · Popularity, Meanings & Census DataEvery US last name from the Census Bureau surname files, ranked by prevalence..

Using deep research for trip planning and visualising it with coding agent is fun.

So we can't use em dash anymore — lest we anger the mob. Truth be told though, English teachers have always discouraged em dash overuse because it is a subtle art and very easy to get wrong.

I've been on a kick lately of trying to visualize the oscillating clock, and ultimately the effectively arbitrarily complex activity of a computer processor, as modern refinements of the line shaft factory of the 19th century. Of compute as being not much more than profoundly refined "work" delivered by the electrical grid into marvelously complex machines. Does that, as a metaphor at least, feel as important to you as it has to me of late? We spend so much time in a world abstracted.

Before AI, coding was my creative outlet. Now, it seems like I need to find a new one, but hobbies being #ttrpgnotesfollow and #videogamesnotesfollow, and with a family, I'm not sure where to find the time.

So, I just got an invite to the new W Social (EU) platform. It requires proper ID authentication - so actual provable humans are on there. Feels good and slightly optimistic. Let's see how it goes. #wsocialnotesfollow

Sharing your work with others is a hard computer science problem in 2026, the Year of our Lord. You either here the sound of chirping crickets or the sound of "AI Slop" yells.

my today’s #todonotesfollow list:

#morningnotesfollow y'all! #coffeenotesfollow

hallo, whirled

HelloWorld #execnotesfollow show codefrom datetime import datetime now = datetime.now() formatted_time = now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S") print("Formatted:", formatted_time) Wow

One benefit of everybody freaking out about the death blueberries is that blueberries are cheap for the rest of us rn

For the first time in a couple of year, I wove a rattan basket today, and the best part is it only took two hours when I was expecting it to take all day #basketrynotesfollow

Gave this evergarden colorscheme a shot after seeing it on lobsters today. Quite liking it.
