Just testing the new post/public cycle from emacs.

I went on a NYC trip this past week, and what a lovely experience it was. A fun concert (who can resist a pretty girl singing), and an extra surprise. My friend happened to also be in the city, and in the hotel next door of all places.

Of course …

It's wet again. Not even rain really, so I lied in the title. Just kinda damp.

The new chickens are now outside, so more eggs in a few months! Woo.

My new posts aren't showing up for some reason, and it's annoying that I'm going to have to spend all …

It's a bit of a cooler, rainy day out today, and I want to write some, even though I don't really have a lot to say. I would like to find my voice and style, even though I don't feel like I have one.

I love visual novel type games, and PWAA is no exception. I will admit sometimes the clues can be a bit...obtuse, especially when some fact or flaw is obvious, but you need to present the right thing at the right dialog to move forward, but otherwise it's great fun …

LLMs and their ilk are just the "wisdom of the crowd" or a betting market turned into an algorithm.
