Grace and I are going to try our hand at growing some Bonsai from seed. We have no clue what we are doing but we have Youtube and Amazon to help us. Our first purchase was the “Super Sprouter”! We also got a bunch of seeds for Christmas that we will try germinating. I guess time will tell at this point, stay tuned.
Started using Roam Research for notes, journaling and habit tracking back in December and thought I’d share why it’s quickly become my favorite app. Highly recommend digging into what bidirectional links are in Roam and how it also handles both linked and unlinked references. The simplicity in which it accomplishes these things is what really sets it apart.
Thanks to RemoteHamRadio.com I’m starting to work some JT8 again. Using Macbook with RHR, xCAT / xDAT, WSJT-X and MacLoggerDX I’m once again working some digital modes operating namely out of FN31. I don’t believe I’m set up with the bureaus anymore, but I’ll QSL direct and especially through LoTW. If I owe you a QSL please don’t hesitate to reach out.

These days I seem to spend most of my time in Visual Studio Code, quite possibly one of the best things Microsoft has put out in some time. Spend a fair amount of my day working on playbooks or python scripts and more importantly interacting with APIs. A good amount has been written about tools such as Postman, which is quite good but also a bit…
Recently built a small Raspberry Pi cluster that I’m using as a lab for some Ansible automation testing. After seeing the work that Jeff Geerling had done with his “Dramble” cluster it inspired me to also want to leverage a USB light as an indicator on the hosts as tasks were being performed with Ansible. I have to admit though, I’m fairly lazy and didn’t want to build a USB light so I set out searching for some hopefully cheap…
