hyperimages

i’m writing this in amsterdam. i’ll be in the city for kubecon till friday. let me know if you want to meet!

• it’s been almost a month since i wrote that i’m yearning for a digital community that runs preferably on irc. guess what, there’s now the dealgorithmed irc server. if you want to believe in the magic, voice your intentions more.

• halloy.chat might be the prettiest software i’ve seen in a long time!

• i forgot to mention the whereabouts of the photos i talked about in january. i decided to buy yet another domain and create a new site. this way i have the liberty of posting photos without worrying about their “professional” associations. my photoroll is now live on hyperimages.net.

• i smoked weed tonight (ofc i did–i am in amsterdam) after 6 months of cold turkey. i both missed the feeling of my intuition firing on all cylinders and forgot how much work it was to flow with it. thankfully, my years of reading posts on r/petioles about tolerance breaks finally resulted in something and i started with a low dosage. btw the appeal of amsterdam is not weed being “legal”, it’s a city that offers you hundreds of AMAZING spots to sit and smoke. (i wish i had taken the photo of the benches at my metro station’s exit).

• nothing much happened last week due to my hours in front of the keyboard. it was a busy week at work–i needed to create a PoC for point-in-time recovery for mysql on kubernetes. i’m writing a post about it for ege.dev, hopefully will publish it sometime this week.
