OK anxiety, I get it. You can stop now. We did an ok job at work today and there is no reason that the evening couldn't be a successful one, too.
I think I have too many open loops right now: Too many tabs, too much to read, too many things I want to change, too many projects and todos. Too many people waiting for me. The dog needs to be walked, too!
Started with browser tab and feed reader and read-it-later bankruptcy. Now the dog.
As some of you may know, I love card decks for the introduction of some randomness and intuition to move people along a process. I’ve now put them together into one Card Catalog that’s shareable with you.

I know we’ve had a lot of “You Can See Everything” content in this newsletter, but allow me one more plug. A recent STAT letter to the editor included a message from the former director of a Phoenix lab. When Theranos rolled out its products there, this writer said he heard from former colleagues about frustrations.

Null Safe(r) Java with NullAway
A blog by Jorrit
After working on Kotlin projects for over seven years, I recently started on a Java project again. One of the things I missed most was the fact that Kotlin explicitly supports nullability as part of its type system. Within the first day I ran into a NullPointerException. Luckily, we can now add compile-time null checks to Java as well, making Java null safe(r)!

Roll 19717328, cont.: UC Riverside (1971-72)
One: Our news editor, Michele McLellan. She later joined the editorial staff of the Riverside Press-Enterprise, then the dominant newspaper in our region.
When shown prints of these photos back then, people would report a strange feeling that they had seen this face before. The reason: When they were very little, Michele and her brother were the models for the 1950s version of the Campbell's Soup Kids.
There's _very_ few options for 200mm ARGB fans in the UK. But I just replaced one of the two front fans on my wife's PC because it was starting to grind.
And now there's three annoying things:
1) I didn't think about fan depth (they're normally fairly consistent!) and it's deeper and so the case front won't fully attach 😑
2) They're now two different brands (because there was only one left in stock) and so the lights aren't in sync yet 😐
3) I had to swap over extra cables because I'd previously connected the old fan to fan power 1 and ARGB 2 on the splitter board! Not that it makes a difference when they're both front fans and you're not syncing speed to colour or anything, but it was still Mixed Up And Wrong™! 😬
Wix gets mocked as the beginner builder, and then it quietly hosts 647,550 domains. The joke stops being funny at that scale. Beginners built a real chunk of the web, one drag and drop at a time.

Lately I've been wondering how to handle security vulnerability reports for my (volunteer) projects. Specifically:
1. Do we really need to keep vulnerability reports confidential? If private, that means I am the only one who can fix it, and I might not have the time/interest. Some other important bugs are not reported privately, and many projects are not public-facing network servers. If the vulnerability was found via an LLM, anyone can throw an LLM at the codebase and find it too with little effort.
2. How much do I really need to care about CVEs? This is just time-consuming paperwork for me. I understand it might be important for security researcher recognition.
3. What happens if the security vulnerability isn't patched in a timely manner, or by the end of the embargo period? Should I feel bad? What if it affects the reputation of the software? I don't want this stuff to invade my life.
I very much care about making things right for users, but I don't know how to balance things out with a healthy maintainer role.

Layers of stonework show the amount of detail work added to many aspects of the cathedral in Palma, Mallorca. Here we can see through the flying buttresses to one of the many stained glass windows that bring colourful light into the heart of the building.
Sam Fucking Rae on Arvo Briefing being an absolute arsehole. Refusing to change the shocking bloody algorithim that's CAUSING HARM to our aged. Yes I'm angry. If he says ROBUST one more time I shall implode. #AusPol

Real men don't grind day and night just to flex some shallow bank account or buy useless garbage. They chase financial dominance for one reason: to weaponize that cash and shield the people they love from every single hardship. If you aren't stacking money to protect your circle, you're just selfish.
New paper in the wild!
Dolomite is a weird mineral, for many reasons. One of which is that most of it is old. But there is a bit of new dolomite, such as in the Abu Dhabi sabkhas, and we used those to control for the seawater signals dolomite retains.
At 4.4% ABV, this is putting me in mind of other, larger breweries that proudly produce beer in vats the size of Rhode Island. Maybe this one will be better than those.

#WritersCoffeeClub #WCC 2026.10.25 — Tell us about inspiration from an unlikely source.
A song. That's actually happened three times.
The second time led to a sale. The song was Another One Bites the Dust by Queen, which led to an image of deer-human hybrids on roller blades shooting down an urban street inside an abandoned McNeil colony. Writing that near-Earth adventure story led to an interesting supporting character whose backstory I developed into a treatment for a YA SF novel, which I wrote and sold to a major New York publisher.

Event spotlight: "Federal Judge Rules OPM Illegally Shared Employee Data with DOGE"
Constitutional damage: 50.6/100

Low media attention on this one. That should concern you.

If the Houston-Giants game ends in a tie, this will be the first time since 1973 that a single team had more than one tie in a season.
i still can't believe i'm living through a Tally hall reunion
like i forgot about it and thought this was one of their old Blind Pig concerts (like the one with the old Time Machine demo), and it took me an entire minute to process the fact that 2026 is THIS YEAR and i'm IN IT and they're BACK
I scheduled a few posts and then I was too sick to actually tell you about them. But here is one #advertising #jingle you might remember. I do, because I had a music box that played this song: https://friendlymusicvisitor.blogspot.com/2026/10/songoftheday-id-like-to-teach-world-to.html

FYI: Budget-limited campaigns lost their 20% ROAS surplus in 3 weeks, smec finds: CPCs at one UK homeware retailer rose from about 17p to 27p in a week, per smec. Its hosts say unaffected rivals raised tROAS. Is that a Q4 opening or noise? https://ppc.land/budget-limited-campaigns-lost-their-20-roas-surplus-in-3-weeks-smec-finds/ #DigitalMarketing #PPC #ROAS #CPC #Ecommerce
I've been binge watching #MasterChefCanada and a couple of episodes from Season 7 I found very interesting... This first one is all about #Vegan cooking, and one of the ingredients the chefs use is a vegan butter-substitute that can be used for anything involving butter!
