Finally watched Daredevil: Born Again

I've been behind on streaming superhero shows. It has taken me a bit to catch up. I had yesterday off, and now today, for the 4th of July holiday. The nice thing has been catching up on series I've been behind on. One of those is

Demos and building software for yourself

I found Mitchell Hashimoto's My Approach to Building Large Technical Projects via Simon Willison's link post. Man, everything in this post is golden. I think I agree with every word. This is definitely how I approach building software. I especially love the focus on getting to

Happy New Year!

Grad School Didn't Work Out... This Quarter

How I Used Generative AI to Create My Comic, Hartwell

As I mentioned in the intro post about my comic and the family writing contest, I spent a lot of time last year using generative AI tools to help me create a comic book. That comic is Hartwell. Please check it out. Without the help of generative AI tools, I

To Paper, or Not to Paper. That Is the Question.

This afternoon, I'm leaving for a Fourth of July beach trip. I'm sitting here going round and round about whether or not I take my iPad. It's a silly debate I'm having with myself. "Just take the iPad if you want
