A phone battery experiment:

Manu is considering charging his phone once twice a week. He lives in a “quiet place” that, I suspect, makes that possible. Meanwhile, I usually charge my phone once a day, even though the battery is still OK. Makes me wonder.

Of Overworking and Deligating

I asked for help, and now I have to sink even more time into delegation, training, and documentation. The solution? Go SLOWER when everything’s on fire. Yes, really.

Been watching Common Side Effects 📺. Somehow I’m already mostly done with Season 1. Part sci-fi, part suspense, part drama, dark and appealing.

Some color goes a long way 📷

It’s Pie day for me.

Well, the pie day was on March (3/14). But every month on the 14th, I decided to have a pizza. Otherwise, I don’t eat cheese. I stopped completely, besides unavoidable butter in some pastries and such. 📷 🍕

Two slices of pizza with spinach and cheese are on a cardboard box next to a can of Diet Coke.

Technical debt, aka I keep forgetting about custom.css

Wait, how can something on a website be broken to one degree or another? Is it broken or not? Well, you see… CSS.

Re: Who Knows That You Blog?

I have a nuanced answer for this. I share personal topics while trying to balance privacy, and I’m open to discussions about my life. How do you feel about this?

I didn’t know that extra info about.bar files! Pretty awesome you came up with it.

I will explore the backup option for the blog, I just wrote a post wondering about a contingency plan for mb. Is there anything like it?

Paying for the good internet (with an escape plan)

Sal jumped ship from Bear to 11ty and Cloudflare, triggering my recurring “what if Micro.blog explodes?” angst. I do love it here, but as they say: it’s not if, it’s when. But who wants to manage more server stuff? I already break my Emacs config too often.

On the way back home, I saw a group of kids, accompanied by adults, picking up trash and dog poop from a street that badly needed it. Turns out they belong to a local church. I’m usually a grumpy dude, but seeing this gave me hope. Just a “maybe it will be OK after all” kind of feeling.
