Living the indie web life
In 2018, David and Chris recorded a podcast episode about the indie web in which the topic “living the indie web life” came up. As soon as I heard the phrase, I thought to myself: what does living the indie web life mean to me?
This evening I hosted an online Homebrew Websit...

Rainbow; moon
The kitchen was scattered with rainbows as the sun shone through the frosted glass. Maybe the glass was put there to make rainbows; what was the architect thinking when they designed this place? I saw the shadows of my head and my hair cast onto the cabinets. Can I make a sha...

Newsletters should have web feeds
Part of the motivation behind some of my top-level pages like my ideas lists is that I feel some things should have a URL. Giving something a URL gives it a place on the web. One area where I feel this could be applied more is in newsletters. I wish email newsletters had corr...
Blossom
I think I watch the two trees outside that blossom beautifully in spring with such attention because they are so close. Those trees are with me when I say “cheers” every morning before I drink a glass of orange juice; they are there when I look out to watch the sun set, and w...
Birds in the Countryside
We were lucky enough to spend the weekend at a medieval castle deep in the Umbrian countryside. I look my portable Birdnet-Pi along, completely forgetting that it needed to connect to the internet to set the correct time. I remembered, however, that the analyses require no c...
Waffles and coffee
Over on Bear Blog, Thereabouts posted “The greatest breakfast food in existence”. When I read the title, my face lit up. “A blog post about breakfast food!” It got me thinking about what breakfast brings me the most joy. I think the answer is waffles and coffee.
This time ar...
Artemis now supports custom domains (in beta)
Last week someone who uses Artemis suggested that it would be nice to be able to use the software with a custom subdomain on their website. This feature suggestion got me thinking about the “own your links” concept in the IndieWeb. While the current version of the “own your l...
Custard creams
Behind the counter in a coffee shop I visited last week there was a whiteboard which read [1]: Sunday debate: Custard creams or chocolate bourbons There were dozens of tally marks on the board and counts from a social media poll. The results were: Custard creams: 212Bourbons: 171 I love both biscuits, so if there were a both option I would have voted as such; if I had to pick one, it would be custard creams, though. Otherwise, I might have said fig rolls, a biscuit I had for the first time in ages this week. Fig rolls may not have been an option, but they sure are tasty. [1]: Given I saw the whiteboard on a week day, I assume the debate was going to run for a week, despite the title being "Sunday debate". In any case, any day is a good day to chat about biscuits.
Khoa Soi London
Today I went out for dinner with Ian and Callum. We were originally going to Phed Mark a Thai pop-up, until we realised that it closed at 16:30.
Since going to Chiang Mai and eating Khoa Soi I’ve been on a mission to find it in the UK. A few weeks ago I found it in The Eagle in Brighton. After a few searches and review reading I found Sen Sen Noodle bar in Soho, it was also part of the group with the Phed Mark pop-up.
The menu had multiple Khoa Sois:
- Khoa Soi chicken
- Khoa Soi short rib
- Khoa Soi scallop and prawn
- Khoa Soi confit duck
- Khoa Soi braised beef
- Khoa Soi lobster
I had chicken and Ian and Callum both had short rib. The sauce was really nice and even better once I had added the chilli oil. It was not as good as the one we had in Chiang Mai but it was very good and I’d really recommend it.
