Colour

Hues of red and lavender blended together in the clear evening sky. I don’t think I have seen the sky like this before. I write with my laptop propped up on one lap as I gaze out the window, trying to find the words to describe the sky. As the minutes pass, the sky changes. T...

EOTD: “Hi Joe Crawford, let’s connect”

Another email offering would-be free money got through my spam filters. Previously: EOTD: “This is a legitimate arrangement—no risk to you.” Hi Joe Crawford, I’ve put a lot of thought into this email, and I hope that comes through. I’m %REDACTED%, a Senior Full Stack Engineer from %REDACTED_COUNTRY% with 8+ years of development experience. I...

Landscape by Moonlight

Whenever I visit an art gallery, there is inevitably a painting that sparks joy, or otherwise leaves me with an impression that sticks with me. Peter Paul Rubens’ Landscape by Moonlight was one such painting. The painting depicts a landscape at night time. The ground and the...

Library memories

One of the ideas Frances shared when we exchanged blog post titles was to write about a memory from a library. While the prompt “Sparking joy” is the one I ended up writing about, as soon as I started to think about library memories a few ideas came to mind. One memory in par...

Space

Two years ago, I visited Greenwich in London. I had been to London before, but Greenwich was that bit further out so I hadn’t made the trip. What drew me to Greenwich was the Royal Observatory and the Prime Meridian line. The day I visited, I had great joy standing over the P...

Ideas for managing post volume in web readers

As I subscribe to more web feeds, I am starting to think about whether there are features that a “calm” web reader should have that are designed specifically for managing the number of posts in one’s reader. I recently introduced Artemis roll-up to “roll up” a week’s posts f...

Newness ~ Oldness ~ Waves

I made a new site header. This one was fun. I reused a background that was a great big GIF and turned it into an AVIF which is half the size. I added it in the same directory where the original one was. The folder name is permanent_media. I was half my current age when...

Blossom

When I write about nature, I sometimes go to my archives and search for what phenomena I am thinking about. I was looking at my previous posts on blossom and saw that I last wrote about the topic on the 5th of April, 2025. I started my post with “One of my favourite times of ...

Starting; playing; maintaining

I think back to how I used to think about how my finger tips would hurt if I learned to play the guitar. I was right: my fingers do get a bit sore. But with practice playing for longer gets easier. I am so glad I started to play. I have been continuing to learn new Taylor Sw...

Rewriting

This weekend I started work on rewriting the static site generator that I use for this website, Aurora. I was looking over the codebase and wondered if I could make the code a bit more efficient and easier to understand. I had ideas for new abstractions – things I could do to...
