Saying thanks on the web

One of the things I love most about blogging is that you can write about an explore an idea as it forms, without necessarily having a specific resolution or end state in mind. With that in mind, I wanted to document a line of thinking that has been on my mind for the last we...

After reading – and enjoying a delicious coffee – I let my feet take me where they wanted to go. At the intersection of two roads on the Royal Mile – the heart of Old Town in Edinburgh – I turned my head right and thought about how long it had been since I had walked down th...

Updating user interfaces

My experience of the tool in which I write blog posts – Typora – is functionally the same as it was when I started using the tool several years ago. Typora starts as it always does since I set it up: as a blank page, ready for me to start writing. There have been many updat...

More leaves and trees are turning from green to orange. On a walk earlier today, I looked around with awe as I noticed more leaves are turning yellow and red and orange. I even saw one tree that is almost entirely red! In spring, the tree blossoms a delightful pink; in autum...

Response to The Worst Community Report Podcast: Blogging

This blog shares my personal reflections on key blogging topics inspired by ‘The Worst Community Report’ podcast interview questions. I discuss my site’s name choice, writing motivations, social media habits, writing setup, and publishing process.

📄 How to create a blurry status bar for PWAs on iOS

When you install a PWA on iOS (and iPadOS) via “Add to Home Screen”, you can make the status bar – i.e. the area at the top around the notch/dynamic island – transparent yet blurry (so that you can still read its infos like the time or battery status).

🎬 Black Water

Movie poster for “Black Water”.

Actually not bad at all. Good action, and a terrifying crocodile, surprisingly brutal. Has suspense too. Entertaining little Aussie movie.
