(One person who voted for the green band has already privately confessed. I hope the rest of you can live with your consciences.)

Which side project should I prioritize?

@nelson Right now I’m manually inserting things into duckdb, so uh there’s progress to be made.

@nelson What I have in mind here is something that’s more like a traditional blog in terms of amount of commentary, but that (almost) always has a main external link. But these things usually change in the first few months.

@nelson Interesting! I’m willing to try this. I basically don’t use RSS at all, so I’m IFR here.

Now with RSS (but no QA on the RSS), archive pages (but no main archive page), permalinks (in a way that will break when I delete a post), etc.

@jonty I’m choosing to interpret the arrows as being in the YouTube thumbnail visual language. I DIDN’T EXPECT THIS about RAIN!

@Rycaut It might be interesting rabbit material. They probably do it because a lot of people enjoyed their rabbit stories. But if nothing else, thinking you’re only appreciated as The Rabbit Person is pretty sad.

Friends fear he’s e-mailing geophysics grad students about their YouTube videos again.

@aredridel Insofar as there are plans, sure.

@llimllib Right now it’s a single hand-coded page with literally no backend, so I’ll take that under advisement.

Experimenting with finally having that linkblog: https://t10a.link/

@sgillies Parsing this as: four (wick scented) candles.

Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion, C-beams glittering in the dark near the Tannhäuser gate, Safeway twenty minutes before closing on Christmas Eve, etc.

@geravitywave Is it canon that Earth’s rotation is still prograde? Thinking of https://esd.copernicus.org/articles/9/1191/2018/
