Done Since 2025-07-27

It has not been a very productive week, but I did manage to take a walk every day except Friday. Monday's was short, but other than that I've been getting to the nearest cross street North, for a total of 1.2km (3/4 of a mile) round trip. Sometimes, like today, just barely. But still.

And I've been getting quite a lot of cat cuddle, though that's also contributed to what I suspect is chronic sleep-deprivation. Thank you, Bronx. :/ Wednesday G and I raised a glass in honor of the lovely Desti, our household's incarnation of Bast, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge two years ago.

In a couple of news articles I linked to last Sunday, Solar is now 41% cheaper than fossil fuels, new UN report finds: 'The sun is rising on a clean energy age', and The year of the European Union Linux desktop may finally arrive, thanks to a perfectly understandable desire for digital sovereignty.

On the other hand, Tom Lehrer is dead. But even if his website, where he dropped all of his songs into the public domain, goes away, his legacy will live on at The Internet Archive

On the gripping hand, if you haven't tried "vibe coding", enjoy this website of AI Coding Horrors, of which this is one of the worst examples. If you have been vibe coding, good luck with that.
