Snikket: Improving Snikket’s usability in collaboration with Simply Secure
One of the primary goals of the Snikket project is improving the usability of
open communication software. We see usability as one of the major barriers to
broader adoption of modern communication systems based on open standards and
free, libre, open-source software. By removing this barrier, we open the door
of secure and decentralized communication freedom to many vulnerable groups
for which it was previously inaccessible or i … ⌘ Read more

OpenBSD on the Huawei MateBook X (2020)
My old 2017 Huawei MateBook X has been my most reliable laptop and has continued to be my daily-use workstation despite trying half a dozen others (and a desktop or two) in the past four years. Every time I’d try a new laptop, certain components wouldn’t work properly, or the keyboard would feel strange, or the screen would look bad, or the fan or some coil-whine noise would drive me nuts. And every time, I’d return to my MateBook X and everything would just work silently. ⌘ Read more

A screenshot of a very tiny c program written on System7

I’ve got to use macOS by nature of my work. Lately I’m increasingly down on this. Here I will not re-hash anything about the current state of Apple’s hardware and software ecosystem. I don’t care.

Wanting to take a trip down nostolgia lane, however (to when I was 2 years old) I thought I’d install Mac OS System 7. What follows is a quick guide for doing the sa … ⌘ Read more

Peter Saint-Andre: Meditations on Bach #6: Further Instrumental Considerations
Although the first five of Bach’s suites for unaccompanied cello lie quite naturally on the bass (when tuned in fifths, that is!), the sixth suite in D major (BWV 1012) is a slightly different story because it was originally written for an instrument with five strings, not four. The exact identity of this instrument remains a mystery - some think it was written for a viola de spalla, others for a violoncello piccolo. Whatever the truth of the matter, p … ⌘ Read more

Bringing back old-school web pins and buttons
Back in the not-quite-as-bad-old-days (at least as far back as the 90’s), every good website had a small “ad” gif that fans of the site could use as a colorful link. These are called “buttons” or sometimes “pins.”

You can see sites that collect these internet artifacts (both the good ones and boring ones) here and here.

Most people would have **do … ⌘ Read more
