  2. Birding in 2023

    Yes, this is a year-in-review post about 2023 posted in 2026. I considered skipping straight to 2025, but the completionist in me wants to capture the years I’ve missed. Plus I already had written some interesting tidbits during the year with little updates during the year. So this update is...

    Following the IndieWebCamp San Diego Open Source development session, I’m proposing the start of a new monthly event tentatively called the IndieWeb Hackathon. This event is inspired by the IndieWeb Blog Carnival and hopes to encourage development of open source IndieWeb community software. The IndieWeb community has spawned lots of...

  5. I’m really excited to be attending IWC SD for the third year in a row. It’s a fun time to discuss what you can do with personal websites. While there are lots of technical problems discussed, I have found that solving the online social/communal problems are just as important. Plus...

  6. These might be my last photos from Washington this year. This was a cool sunset over the bay, but I like the contrast that came out when converted to black and white. Even though I know the sun and sky were bright red, I like that the differences in darkness...

  7. How long till someone holds Uber and Lyft accountable for false advertising on estimated wait times? It seems like “1-3 minutes” is always “20-30 minutes”.

  8. I love the chaos of this photo. So much noise but also an imperfect balance.

  9. Happy Birthday Bex. With your infectious smile and thirst for life, you have shown me so much joy. You have helped me expect more out of myself and others. But also taught me how to have grace with myself when I fall short. I’m proud of how you’ve faced adversity...

  10. How We Use GitHub Issues and How That’s Changing — Eleventy

    I historically haven’t used GitHub discussions much but I like this process Zach (on the 11ty project) and Cory LaViska are recommending. Often feature requests need refinement before they can be made into actionable issues. So they can languish and make it harder to see the issues ready to work....

  11. This was our first flight to Friday Harbor. The sky was much clearer which made for good sightseeing. I really liked the contrasts in this delta of the mainland.

  13. I realized I still have a bunch of photos from Washington this summer I haven’t posted yet. I like the simplicity of this one. Fittingly it’s from a fun afternoon with different Hoesterey men taking us around on their respective plate/boat.

  14. Million-Mile Tech

    I wish the technology industry operated with a longer term mindset. Even if we had highly efficient recycling programs (which we don’t) our devices should last more than 2 years. I’m glad the right to repair movement has made some gains in recent years but we need to continue to...

  15. The Perfect Battery Material Is Dangerous - YouTube

    I wonder if in 50 years we’ll look at the current generation lithium ion batteries and think “how did people ever think those were safe?” Don’t get me wrong, I think we’ve done a great job making them safe, safer than other tech like combustion engines and you don’t have...
