Haven’t done any water coloring in months and this fiddly fig wasn’t the easiest one to start with.

Just came across this excellent post: Poor mans mind mapping tool with just the terminal from @fullstackthaumaturge (account no longer exists) toot on Fosstodon.

I’ve been using org-transclusion for an “inverse literate” Emacs config and tangling all the config chunks on save and exporting it as a markdown file.

I was privileged to visit Bonaire in the Dutch Caribbean last week.

I have been using the Sony A7ii for a long while.
