2025 Week 47
This week I revived the weeknotes habit with some tooling tweaks, fell down rabbit holes about BBS-era writing styles getting mistaken for ChatGPT output, dealt with Catsby feeling under the weather (but Miss Biscuits providing excellent nursing care), discovered some wild musical connections between Feist and Peaches, got excited about build-free JavaScript, and bookmarked way too many things about AI (as usual).

2025 Week 46
Our 15-year-old solar inverter died this week, which kicked off a lot of thinking about technology longevity and why IoT devices don't have 15-20 year plans. Also: anxious cat parenting with smart litter boxes, Miss Biscuits winning over Cosmo, buying a nostalgic boombox off eBay, bouncing off and back into Xenoblade Chronicles 3, contemplating tea as a booze replacement, and way too many bookmarks about AI coding tools.

2025 Week 45
Airports are spaceports full of beings new to this planet, awkwardness of tech interviews, smart plugs for e-bike charging automation, a Plex server corruption story, rediscovering old synthpop compilations, and the usual pile of AI coding discourse bookmarks. Oh, and election anxiety. Lots of that. [ ... 1124 words ... ]

2025 Week 44
It was my birthday this week, which my BBS remembered! Celebrated by dialing into BBSes from an actual Amiga 1200 and C64. Also: evangelized Bazzite Linux for gaming, fell down a Roguelike Celebration rabbit hole of procedural generation and non-euclidean games, shipped a new release of my feed-to-mastodon tool, and bookmarked way too many things about AI hype and data centers using jet engines for power.

2025 Week 43
Wrestled with my Synology NAS trying to get a Debian VM running, started learning Kubernetes and Argo Workflows, watched Catsby and Miss Biscuits become friends, populated my BBS with text files from textfiles.com. Also: no, I don't need to build a BBS Door that controls Home Assistant lights. (But maybe I do?) [ ... 1063 words ... ]

2025 Week 17
Another week, another weeknotes post. Talking about web components, Fastmail cleanup, garden irrigation, Revision 2025, and some other random crap! Someday, I'll figure out how to make these summaries more exciting! [ ... 1238 words ... ]

2025 Week 16
Kicked off a new habit: jotting down bits and bobs throughout the week, then turning it into a blog post. Played with Meshtastic, roasted some coffee, fixed (and broke) Fossilizer, and started messing with garden irrigation. Just trying to get stuff out of my head and onto the web again.
