On this day
Posts on and around this day (Nov 8):- 2025-11-09 / My little data vis all for my Peloton rides broke a couple of weeks ago, but clever developers found a way to continue using the API, so it’s back, for now. I wish Peloton would publish an official auth flow; they would see an explosion of support and interest from small and big developers, I think.

- 2024-11-09 / Thinking this week about how both compressed and expanded time feels. Compressed because how can another four years have passed and brought us here? And expanded because somehow memories have not kept up, like 2020 happened a long time ago. Only four years ago, we were partway through what would be a full year of Trump’s horrific governance during the first year of COVID, a year that ended with his fostering of a deadly insurrection.
- 2024-11-04 / Rolling back to standard time means that my Arizona-situated 8am meetings are now at 7am until spring.
- 2023-11-09 / My NUC running Suse must have heard me talking about replacing it with a Mac Mini, because it’s been stubbornly stable for about 36 hours, after crashing perhaps a dozen times on Tuesday. I’m giving it the strong side eye.
- 2023-11-05 / I spent an unseemly portion of today getting Suse to work on my finicky NUC to run my Roon server. If it’s still unstable then I think it must be a hardware issue, and I’ll just replace the whole thing with a Mac Mini.
- 2021-11-11 / I used Migration Assistant and it’s actually anticlimactic how cleanly my shiny new MacBook came up just like the prior one. I had to run a couple of updates to get brew up to current, but otherwise everything just … worked, including all my fiddly fish shell stuff and the project I had open in R Studio. I can only imagine the engineering under the hood to make that work amid the Intel to M1 transition.
- 2021-11-10 / 👀 migrating
- 2021-11-09 / Got the first vaccine shot for Kiddo this morning, and resisted, just barely, the impulse to high-five every dang parent in the pharmacy waiting area.
- 2021-11-08 / Sunrise with a few clouds.
- 2021-11-06 / Spent a good chunk of today alternating between Forza Horizon 5 and learning how to add a vim layer to my keyboard with QMK. Pretty good Saturday tbh.
- 2020-11-08 / Also while I’m catching up, this Joan Armatrading album is amazing.
- 2020-11-08 / Spent a good chunk of the day learning how to make a Shiny app out of my Destiny Armor Profiling Thing. That was fun and my brain is also broken.🎮
- 2020-11-05 / It was a nice afternoon for a walk in the woods.
- 2019-11-11 / I’ve been improving my gluten free pizza crust for a couple of years, and after adding way too much water to one batch I recently made an accidental focaccia. This was my first attempt at an intentional loaf of bread, and I’m so happy with how it came out!
- 2019-11-08 / Puppy buddies at the end of a great big busy day.
