affirmation
This week has been quiet. My mind is quiet, my anxiety is low. I have a lot of dreams, I play the violin, a first in a few months. I drew a few pages, and I write more.
I wonder if the Happe has anything to do with that. More on that soon, but it's a powder of tobacco and other plants that I've been using for a bit.
Time change means that I've now to figure out the time every day! I live on a different time zone than the other side of the lake. It makes for an annoying ferry ride; if I leave home at 8am, I arrive at my destination at 8am!

The future of housing in Kentucky
Something uncomfortable is happening to college- educated people in my country, to people in the professions, people in management, civil servants in the public bureaucracies.
They're becoming acutely aware that history is happening to them. History has for so long been something my country made happen to people in dis- tant lands, or at worst, something that happened to the professionals' clients, the managers' markets, customers, or the employees of their contractors.

My GnuPG configuration
Lately, I have been studying GnuPG with more depth. I think I am grasping almost every concept it has.
So, I am sharing my new gpg.conf . It is on this link below, and on all of my main pages (except in Gemini):

Where While: Where Is Your While?
The "|" or "pipe between processes" is a shorthand for quite a bit of activity involving among other things fork and descriptor duplicating. This means the code within the while loop is running in a different process from the other "side" of the pipe. Which side is in the main process? It varies.
