** Stinky **
This morning I set up our new composter. This entailed shoveling a lot of compost from the old one into the new so that it can actually finish cooking. Shoveling 4 years worth of mostly kitchen scrap compost is a very very stinky endeavor. Despite wearing gloves I don’t know if my hands will ever not smell again. ⌘ Read more

[$] Hardening fixes lead to hard questions
Kees Cook’s “hardening\
fixes” pull request for the 6.16 merge window looked like a
straightforward exercise; it only contained four commits. So just about
everybody was surprised when it resulted in Cook being temporarily blocked
from his kernel.org account among fears of malicious activity. When the
dust settled, though, the red alert was canceled. It turns out,
surprisingly, that Git is a tool with which one can inflict substantial … ⌘ Read more

Sometimes, we spend months stuck in inertia, distracted by screens and routine. So I’d like to give you a simple reminder: creating-in whatever form-is what makes you feel alive.
The beauty of working on projects is not in their ‘success’, but in the simple act of working on them. Whether it’s writing, cooking, programming or redecorating the house: play with ideas without pressure, engage in an activity to test, fail and discover without judgement.
In the end, what remains is not a perfect product, but the satisfaction of completion and valuable lessons.
Find a project, no matter how small, and let it take you without expectations.

Based.Cooking has become more grandma-usable.
Over the past month, I’ve taken some off-time to tinker with
Based.Cooking, the cooking site I/we made a year or so
ago as a proof of concept for a simple and unintrusive recipe website. There
have been over 250 recipes submitted, but the hobbled-together static site
generator originally used proved unable to keep up and with all the
submissions, there was a big issue of content organization.

This won’t get me a “Dear Mr. Cook” mention in an Apple event, but I thought it was pretty cool to be able to use my iPad in the kitchen without touching it. Voice Control is pretty good.
COOKING TIP: if you are frying literally anything, fry it in a lot of butter and then add like a sip of beer (preferably dark beer, like a tripel or a double-ipa). It makes the flavor a lot more complex
