I've been a web developer since 1999, and I've been on the indieweb since 2015. This site is a commonplace book for all my online activity and will eventually be a home for archives of all of my online content.

The Goodreads read shelf RSS feed was introducing too much cruft into my site, so I’ve disabled that IFTTT/web hooks recipe in favor of using an indieweb micropub client to post books with reading statuses. I’m still keeping the book updates recipe though. If I find a way to get the read shelf feed to post the way I’d like it to then I’ll re-enable so I can continue to post that sort of thing from my phone.

I’m 88% done with "The Bear and the Dragon" by Tom Clancy, and I would dearly like to know what the hell happened to the editor because there are significant chunks of this book that could be removed and the story would still make perfect sense.

Apparently Kraft is selling a 20-oz container of the powdered cheese that comes in their macaroni and cheese boxes. I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

I smacked my head pretty hard on the marbble fixture of the towel rack and am trying to catch up after a two-hour unscheduled power outage so I can get today’s work done before today ends. How’s your Friday going?

That time you’re about to press enter after typing a command with several parameters, and the power goes out. Good thing the coffee just finished brewing.

It’s 2020 and I still have a hate-hate relationship with WordPress’s AutoP filter. Yes, I can remove it, but why the hell are we still doing this in the first place?

Second day with the new mechanical keyboards, and both John and I can confidently report that we absolutely love them and should have gotten them much sooner.

It’s been so much easier to get things done, and faster too.

I think I should probably change the keyboard layout for my screen reader from laptop to desktop, and if I have to travel at any time I’m going to really miss this mechanical keyboard.
