Ask HN: Could you share your personal blog here?

I try to write up helpful or interesting pieces I feel either aren't covered sufficiently elsewhere or for my own reference.

Covers a pretty wide array of technologies (software architecture, messaging systems, DBMSs, etc).

I generally try to target the intermediate level that often gets lost in the spectrum between surface-level intros or expert level deep dives. My hope is that someone gains an better understanding or discovers a new practical tool or approach that they can then use to better their life and career.

- Narrative Introduction; - Podcasts reviews (each review is 25 words or fewer); - Nerdy Software (25 words or fewer on a piece of software I like); - Bougie Products (25 words or fewer on a product I like); - Personal Finance and Investing (advice in 25 words or fewer); - Reading (each review is 25 words or fewer); - A List.

The name of my blog comes from a quote that inspires me: "In music, as in everything, the disappearing moment of experience is the firmest reality." (Benjamin Boretz)

I've had various blogs over the years, intermittently contributing to them when the mood strikes. This one is no different :)

~100 posts over 15+ years. I don't update it often anymore, but I still do have those inevitable drafts I never got around to publish.

My repository of recipes, art, notes, music, photography, and essays. Software, economics, politics, ethics, food, democracy, etc.
