Hi.

I've been doing a lot of Markdown-to-Microsoft Word work lately, and while I have used and loved Pandoc for a long time, the biggest issue is usually getting the Pandoc binary installed on whatever target environment in which my code is running.

Today I am releasing binwheels-neovim, an unofficial package that allows you to quickly install Neovim on Windows, Linux, and macOS without admin privileges and without needing to compile anything.

Some years back, I uploaded code and example videos for a side project to help me learn Java and physics at the same time.

I recently completed a full migration of my personal site over here to Bear Blog.

An analogy came to mind a couple weeks back that has started to reshape the way I think about my calendar: My time slots have potential energy.

I've been a huge fan of GNU Make for quite some time.

Update, August 2025: I've migrated to Bear Blog, so this post is no longer accurate.

2024 has been quite a year so far.
