I’ve been sitting here staring at the screen and clicking things mostly at random and finding nothing that sparks my interest. Am I reaching the end of something? Feels like I’m reaching the end of something. I just hope it’s the beginning of something else.

I don’t have any real plans today other than one appointment at lunch. How shall I waste spend the day?

Maybe these daily notes are more like an internal monolog, published. The microblog will be for things I want to deliberately share. This would be what I’m using Mastodon for, currently, but I’ll crosspost to Mastodon instead.

It seems that everywhere I turn, someone is giddy about Oasis getting back together. I’m not embarrassed to go on record stating that I absolutely cannot stand their music, so consider me nonplussed.

Thankfully, I’ve got things to do in real life today. Otherwise, I’d be wasting the day by fretting over the long-term use of Emacs. I need to get past that, but not today.

I can’t think of anything more useless and boring than trying to craft the perfect AI prompt so that it will generate something useless and boring for me.

I talk about gear and process a lot because it helps fill the gaps left by a dearth of ideas.

All of the handwringing around AI or Apple or [trending topic here] has become boring. So has the naval gazing around blogging and social media and everything. I need a new thread to pull.

Abandoning the hours I spent making little scripts and shortcuts to do the things I normally do in Emacs, but in Bear, etc. instead, I spent time yesterday doing the same thing with the Emacs versions. I feel better about that, because I’m better at Emacs to begin with, so this feels like adding on to something I have rather than starting over with something new.

Speaking of Emacs, I’ve added evil-mode back into my Emacs config. Now I’m really confused. I have two conflicting sets of muscle memory, both of which I quite like, but they can’t really coexist peacefully. I tried Demon-mode and other kinda-evil-but-not-really modes and none are what a want. I’m going to need to decide.
