I’ve been thinking some about “expressive” work with code and why I think it’s useful and important, and I wrote up a little blog post about it, over at my Datablog: What do we mean when we say ‘code is expressive,’ anyway?.
Most impactful personal technology of 2023? For me, good insoles on the recommendation of a podiatrist was a real game-changer.

I did this two-hour power zone ride the other day – whoooo! – and now all the other rides in my recent history plot look like lil tiny guys.
My personal OneDrive account is connected to my Xbox, and for years and years the only thing in it was game clips and screenshots. So once in a while I get an “on this date last year” sort of email from Microsoft, and it’s always full of nothing but Destiny 2 clips, mostly PVP and mostly Iron Banner. (Some of them are bangers!
