Really loving #Lanterns!
A cinematic LANTERNS poster shows Aaron Pierre and Magnus Hedemark walking toward the viewer on a misty street beneath a green, clouded sky. Magnus wears glasses, an olive jacket, black shirt, and jeans, with a green glow near one hand. Text reads “ARE YOU AFRAID?”, “NEW SERIES AUG 16,” and “HBO max,” with DC Studios branding.

I've been learning more about video production & vlogging. I should be doing this more for professional content but my heart is pulling me more towards "wandering idiot" content. For shits & giggles I tried making music in Suno for cinematic interludes on the motorcycle. Holy shit, it's good.

If you like the idea of Jev but want a self-hosted option, here's a free & open source project I've started contributing to. This lets you host the Laya model, and currently presents a Jev-shaped API contract. I'm working with the maintainer on offering more native Laya-shaped endpoints, also.

It's after Labor Day so it seems seasonably appropriate now to shift to Halloween headshot.
Black-and-white horror manga portrait of a man transformed into Cthulhu. Rectangular glasses frame black eyes with glowing slit pupils beneath recognizable human brows. His elongated head has ridged, porous skin, and a mass of curling, sucker-lined tentacles replaces his mouth and beard. Batlike wings and more tentacles fill the dark background.

It's been a lot of fun working on SlopSearX (SearXNG replacement), but also kind of amazing how few people have found it. But I use it myself and I'm making some major feature investments in it right now. Like it's finally getting a web portal, which is something I intentionally left out at launch.

Magnus, dressed as a 19th-century gentleman inventor, works on a brass steampunk machine at a wooden workbench in a richly furnished office. An observer takes notes while peeking through the window, and a framed Groktopus octopus emblem hangs on the wood-paneled wall.

Some reasons to follow me or not
A square watercolor-and-ink illustration of Magnus wearing glasses and a muted blue shirt. He looks off to the side with a curious, slightly amused expression. Energetic black ink lines, arrows, circles, splatters, and soft blue, green, and lavender watercolor washes surround him on textured cream paper.

Across the top, hand-lettered text reads, “Reasons to follow me / or not follow me.” Scattered around the portrait are the statements: “I change my mind when the evidence changes.” “I collect interests.” “I take strange ideas seriously.” “I value sincerity.” “I have little patience for status games.” “Weird is where I find many of the most interesting people.” “I make room for wonder.” “I follow interesting side quests.” “I’m comfortable saying ‘I don’t know.’” “I’m always becoming someone slightly different and more authentically myself.”

AI-generated slop image that looks like a scene from Marvel's The Avengers, but it's really just a shark man and a shabby-looking clown that are flanking a picture of Magnus in a battle suit of some kind.

The show is called #Lanterns, not “Green Lanterns”. If you’re a new or casual fan, here’s a sense of what they are laying the foundations for.
Infographic titled “The Lantern Field Guide: A quick mental map for new fans.” Against a starry black background, a glowing rainbow arc presents seven classic Lantern Corps: red/rage, orange/avarice, yellow/fear, green/willpower, blue/hope, indigo/compassion, and violet/love. A second section covers black/death, white/life, and ultraviolet/hidden negative emotions. A third lists gold/joy and gray/sorrow as later or special cases. The bottom callout reads: “Color tells you what fuels the ring—not whether the wearer is a hero.”

Promotional infographic titled “Site Reliability Engineering, Now Built for the Real Work.” The subtitle says, “A freshly updated AI agent skill, deeply updated with practical guidance.” A portrait of Magnus, wearing glasses and a slate-blue shirt, points toward a panel titled “What the update adds,” which lists five features: user-focused SLOs and error budgets; capacity, overload, dependency, configuration, canary, and data-durability reviews; clear ownership and SRE adoption with or without a dedicated team; sustainable on-call, incident learning, documentation, psychological safety, and cognitive-load practices; and practical templates for design reviews, overload recovery, and reliability ownership. A second panel titled “Why install it?” says it moves users from vague reliability advice to an inspectable way to design, operate, and improve production systems.
