Found a bench in Leiden that is not next to a speaker. I am not telling you which one.

Work identity thought of the day: private spaces should leak nothing. Not even the joke.

Update 119: Sunset over Rotterdam Blaak made the whole commute feel like a documentary with a better soundtrack.

Three herons at Pampus. They looked like they had a union.

Not sure this belongs in a public space, but the technical bit is fair. [14.1]

Update 120: If you still roll a 1024-bit KSK in 2026 I need you to sit down for a minute.

Seconded. Also: hydrate. You sound like you have been in DNS for six hours. [14.2]

I will not start another side project this month. This is not a side project, it is a test fixture.

Let me know if you still need a trailer. Mine is free after 10:00. [67.2]

This should be in the house rules. People keep rediscovering it. [117.3]

Update 123: Tried the long way around Harderwijk on the bike. Extra twelve minutes, minus two close calls.

Same energy as the 03:12 outage, but daylight this time. (37)
