For me. at any rate. Today I completed my exhausting trawl of the archive from 2020 to 2025. placing each of those 1.800 or so posts into its appropriate book [Cosmos. Anthropos. and Theos]. and it only took a couple months of tedious labor. Today I edited the last 4.300 word rant for Book Three. so now all that remains is to organize the material within each book into a coherent narrative. Here is my final report card from the always flat....

This post is part of the GenAI Series. A few moons ago, I built a small AI tool to deal with ticket delays at my company. It wasn’t a big, fancy product. It started as a simple experiment, but it worked really well. We were getting negative feedback from clients about tickets not being completed on time. The real challenge was figuring out the actual reason behind each delay. Was it something our team did wrong, or was the delay coming from....

Goroutines are cheap. Goroutine leaks are not. I learned this the hard way at 2am on a Tuesday, staring at Grafana dashboards showing one of our services consuming 40GB of RAM and climbing. The service normally sat around 500MB. We’d shipped a change three days earlier — a seemingly innocent fan-out pattern to parallelize calls to a downstream API. The code looked fine. Reviews passed. Tests passed. What we’d missed was that when the down..

Today I learned about Apotris . My first impression? Fuck! Fuck is this good! When I started developing I didn’t have the ambition to create the best Tetris clone out there. But I was convinced I’d have a few novel ideas at least. Turns out my ideas aren’t as novel ;D Even the cooperative multiplayer is something thats already existing in Tetris Effect Connected, as I learned just recently (if you haven’t seen it, check it out !).

Last week I had to diagnose a bug in an open source library I maintain. The issue was gnarly enough that I couldn’t find it right away, but then I thought: if I set a breakpoint here and fire up the debugger, I will likely find the root cause very soon… and then proceed to mercilessly destroy it! So I rolled up my sleeves, set the breakpoint, fired up the debugger, and… saw the program run to completion without interruptions whatsoever.

For those not familiar with the different types of dashes, you’ve got the hyphen (-), which is well-known for connecting words together. Then there’s the slightly longer en dash (–), mostly used to indicate ranges, like the years I’ve maintained a blog (1998–2026). And finally, we have the em dash (—), specifically designed to be a visual separator. Long before AI allegedly “popularized” the em dash — which is adorable, by the way — I was..

The other day I found Alan Pike’s blog post from a few years ago which describes his iterative process for determining the order cities should be closed in the game Two Spies. Ultimately, finding a formal solution to city closing wasn’t necessary for the game, but it’s worth giving it a shot anyways since pruning by hand isn’t always convenient.

Last night I decided to dedicate some time to my old z80 emulator . I've squashed a few bugs and ported it to .NET 10. Then I added a ULA emulator. The ULA is a custom chip on a ZX Spectrum that handles IO, in practice, as an emulated chip it reads memory and ports and writes to audio buffers, screen buffers, and reads the keyboard connectors. Initially I thought it'd be a lot of work, but it turns out that if you know how screen decodin....

I finally finished the stateless CAPTCHA I’ve been obsessing over for the last few weeks. The idea had been rotting in the back of my head while I worked on other things, but the absolute state of anti-bot protections on Tor finally pushed me to write the code. JS is out of the question. I don’t use it here, and I certainly won’t force Tor users to enable it just to prove they exist. The whole thing runs purely on HTML and CSS. These cons....

Yes. I believe this is something a Western woman would absolutely do on Judgment Day.

Introduction Current computer chess engines include a neat feature: the analysis bar. For example here is the analysis bar from chess.com. White to move, FEN: rnb2rk1/ppp2ppp/3p1q1n/4p3/7P/b1PPP3/PP1BBPP1/R2QK1NR w KQ – 0 1 The analysis bar is on the left, and the white portion is 74 “centipawn units” below the midpoint (matching […]

George Boole (1815-1864) was a mathematician best known as the progenitor of the Boolean algebra, the system of logic that acts as a fundamental layer within digital systems. Although he never gained a college degree, he spent many productive years as the chair of mathematics at Queen’s College, Cork. Desmond MacHale’s The Life and Work of George Boole is a well-written exploration of Boole’s life, personality, and impact. The Life a....
