This year I teamed up with @kevinkelly.bsky.social and David Rumsey to make v2 of The Speed of the Earth for Burning Man, a mile-long visualization of the Earth's rotation. I'm very pleased with how it came out! It's peaceful out there by the trash fence.

This tiny bird picked up a bunch of my dog’s fur in the back yard and made itself a proper Dr. Robotnik mustache.

Got into the dark room to print some of my great-grandfather's WWI negatives. Very pleased with the results!

Finally, a good spam text! I’m actually considering replying!

Having a very normal evening, using Claude to count dog poop bags with OpenCV. Interestingly, neither ChatGPT nor Claude could one-shot this. The error was really significant, like 20% off at least. I'm walking it through step by step and it's still not quite there.

Place your bets, ladies and germs. Genius or Folly? Good idea / bad idea??

Bret Stephens is sure foaming at the mouth, but not because he's a critic.

When I boarded my flight today I realized just as I sat down that I had left my favorite water bottle on the gate agent desk! Alaska really didn’t have to ground all their planes just so I could get it back, but that’s some customer service eh?

As I snapped this photo- at least ten minutes into “1” -it completed. Everything was still soggy. This is a horrible April Fool’s joke.

A couple in-process shots from my ad-hoc photoshoot.
A yellow human puppet holding one hand up and leaning conspiratorially forward. "Wanna buy a watch app??"A photography studio set up in a garage. A yellow puppet has its arm tied to a rod to show its watch to the camera.

Today's list is a little more organized. Cleaning items are at the bottom, things are a touch more chronological... I also need a couple blank spots for things that come up.

This is a silly but so satisfying project! I've been wanting a printed daily checklist for a long time. Last week I discovered my printer has a slot for single pages that can take a 4x6 index card. Now I have it laid out in LaTeX so I can update it with an LLM and still get great formatting. 😁
