    Life stress still at a local maximum, but I want to stay in the habit of posting here. This is going to be a really boring post for anyone who doesn't think memory palaces are interesting. So, sorry. I do write about other things.

    I've been reenchanted by memory palaces and related techniques over the past month or so. I wonder if it's also a part of my reactionary mindset to AI? I hadn't really considered that, but I think it's true.

  • Sunny Morning

    I bought her coffee, in case she would come back.

    All these habits we co-create, this little garden of shared secrets. I'm still looking for Tia Maria, she liked it in her coffee. I still want to please her, to become what I though she wanted of me.

    I haven't replaced her, I don't really want to. Letting the memory of her slowly fade away. Letting the wound slowly heal.

    This momentum that is created between two persons, this rhythm, this dance, where the music stop, and you loose the other. For a moment, you keep on dancing, moving, wandering, until the cold lonely dance floor becomes unwelcoming. What was I doing here? Where am I going now?

    The KiCad project has announced it is making the Linux version of its popular open source electronic design automation (EDA) software available as an all-in-one cross-distribution AppImage for the first time, and is inviting feedback.

    "KiCad has released a new packaging format for Linux," the team announced of its software download options this week. "You can now run the latest KiCad using AppImage. This is still in testing, so please give it a spin and let us know if something doesn't work correctly."
