On Theranos
Elizabeth Holmes is in the news. In 2019 Alex Gibney released a documentary on what that company did and how it operated. It was called The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley. I watched it on HBO. I can remember the feeling of watching it. It made me angry. What follows is an adaptation...
Visual; textual
My home page is a poem. I designed it in this way to explore the extent to which a literary medium – a poem – could be used for navigation, for way finding. Poems help me see the world differently, to navigate thoughts. So too does navigation: every link is a bridge to a new...

Five essential ingredients for a web that serves us all
A presentation Hidde de Vries gave at Smashing Conference yesterday. Very interesting points throughout, also very entertaining, even if we only have the slides to look at online so far. He touched many topics I work on and I could especially relate to this chart …

Today’s #WASSUP tip: a search shortcut for saving pages in the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine.Yes this is a lot like yesterday’s tip, except for archiving a page, rather than looking it up. For example if you try looking up a page in the Internet Archive and it’s not ther...

Switched to the Yucca fins. One handplane. Things are changed; things are good.
Starry night
I close my eyes and I can still see the blanket of stars that I saw moments ago when I was leaning as close as I could into the glass of the window such that I could see as many stars as possible. Such is the impression that the stars made that I can see them in my mind even...

Officially: fins lost
The blue-with-white tips DaFin fins which I’ve had for several years are officially lost. I mentioned yesterday in Good News; Bad News that on a big wave both my fins came off. As is my habit, I returned to the same beach the day after to look and see if they’d washed up or been...
Autumn
Summer is becoming autumn: as days pass, the green leaves slowly turn yellow. The sun is so bright right now that the distinction between the green and the yellows on nearby trees is hard to see, but in my memory of walks I see paths lined with mostly green trees; some trees...
Second year
I woke up in excitement this morning. Today is the day I can start to access my course materials for next year. My second year of university doesn’t officially start for another few weeks, but from today I can start reading through the introductory material. I spent the morn...

Good News; Bad News
Here’s what I texted to Kelly this morning after I went in the water: The good news is I learned I’m not allergic to bees, the bad news is I lost both fins in a very violent wave. The other good news is that I’m fine. I don’t like losing a fin. But I’ve lost...

Who’s that gull?
Forgive the pun. Who does this gull think they are? I’m checking the surf cameras on Surfline, and notice this gull in the way. Like–excuse me. Can you do your morning groom somewhere else please? Alas, birds will bird the way they want to bird. Yesterday I did maintenance on some even older parts of...
Musical dreams
We’ve gotta keep going. The words flowed back to me with unexpected fluency; the sound of the song was all it took. I sang word after word, words deep within that I forgot were there, a reminder of how much I loved the song, of how much I listened, and, in this case, of how ...

Overnight hiking trip. 🗻☀️🏕️
Making memories with music
You get that darkness out your head, yeah
You had it with you from the start
The lightning in your heart
~ Kid, The Revivalists
Last evening – and for the last few days – I have been feeling a little bit down. But music was with me, and helped me see through the grey clouds...
