New book is coming along nicely! Terrible, terrible things have happened to our princess, but she's not a gentle wilting flower. She's got a plan. It's going to get ugly from here.

Call an ambulance ... but not for her! 😄

This shows up in Microsoft Word now in every single document even if you have Copilot turned off (which I do), and I'm just so tired of this stuff.

22,500 words on the new book since November 1st. Things are ... not going super well for Lachesse.

A well-deserved black-n-tan after 12 hours of travel!

Three trains, a plane, a cab, another train, and a rather lovely short walk through town.

Genuinely curious to see what, if anything, this ends up paying. I do have two books registered with the US copyright office that Anthropic trained their data on w/o my permission. I'm not thrilled with this settlement, but I'd rather get paid than just get nothing for the theft.

It's hilarious that my wife and I have dined all over the world, including Michelin Star restaurants on three continents, and one of the best meals either of us has ever had was lobster rolls and perfect shoestring fries from an ice cream stand in the middle of nowhere in New Hampshire. LOOK AT THIS

Paris Basket game came down to the last shot but they pulled out the win! Nice to go to a game that doesn't start at 8:30 PM on a weeknight, too!

If I were a billionaire, I would invest very, very, VERY heavily in these. Vastly higher carbon sink potential than an individual tree, produces safer biomass for fertilizing than animal waste, looks cool, thrives in urban environments that are rough for trees.

Buenos dias from #ReactAlicante! Let's learn some stuff 😄

One of my absolute favorite things about living in France is getting to visit various parts of Europe WITHOUT jetlag. Cheers from Alicante!

I built a fuzz pedal this weekend. It was fun! Sounds great, worked first try. Great kit from Stewmac.
September 29, 2025 at 10:25 AM
I'm. Finally. Done.

I don't know if I'll ever replay #Silksong. It's an amazing game with a lot of stuff I really loved and a significant chunk I didn't. I'll probably write up my final thoughts on it over on cwbwriting.com this week.

In case you're in the habit of ignoring LinkedIn's emails ... which you probably are ... note that they are changing their terms of service in November and defaulting AI training from user generated content to "on" for people in Europe. You can turn it off in your settings.

Finished my kit guitar! It plays pretty well and sounds just fine. The tuners suck and I'm going to replace them, but that's honestly my only complaint. Here's a "how it started / how it's going" comparison 😄

"Chris, why do you hate Tailwind?"

Because this is an unreliable and difficult-to-read way to build things that requires way more refactoring when designs change than working with actual CSS classes. Having to hand-style every single piece of every single component misses the value of CSS entirely.

I'm more of a basketball guy rememberer, so here are some basketball guys I remembered while remembering some guys with Defector and Immaculate Grid.

QOTSA did their thing and a good time was had! Wish I'd taken tomorrow off but ... oh well!
August 24, 2025 at 10:08 PM
Followed up with Vera Daises and Fontaines DC. Both pretty fun. Not in love with Fontaine's singer but the music was really good. Now standing around waiting for QOTSA

Arrived at Rock En Seine at 3:30ish. Queens of the Stone Age, the band I'm here to see (and the only one I'd ever heard of before today), don't play till friggin 9:50, but we've so far enjoyed King Hannah and Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory. Not a bad afternoon! Now chilling in the shade.

It is, in fact, fine!

SimpleRSS.dev is almost ready to launch in beta. So excited to potentially make twelves of dollars a year off this service!

Cha, her sister, and her niece are at the beach. I love the ocean but don't really care for the beach, so I walked with them and then continued on to our favorite bar in town. Picon bière, sketching, and a cool breeze. All is good!

I have updated the SimpleRSS.dev alpha! Yes, I know I'm on vacation. This is fun for me. 😄 Here are the latest patch notes. If you'd like in on the alpha, DM me!

Sundays at Le Pouliguen are free for alls but there are usually gallettes available. My choice of ingredients: leftover beef, mushrooms, leeks, cheese, egg. Served with cidre brut.

I take this picture every year. First walk to the beach (literally two minutes from the house).
