We've had this long furling tape from Japan for the longest time, for years!! thinking it was in inches. Causing us lots of mistakes and fuck ups, the whole time we thought it was our own miscalculation.
1) The unit on the tape is in tenth of a feet.
2) That's almost exactly 3cm, BUT NOT QUITE.
3) The ruler says FEET, but then breaks it down in 3cm segments each divided in tenth of a tenth of foot.
WHAT THE FUCK RULER

Someone at the gym remarked on my "strange phone" this morning.
I think I might be the only person with wired earbuds, I hadn't noticed until today. For the past 15 years, I've used this little audio recorder as music player, I see a lot of people scrolling feeds between their sets instead of taking a moment to actually breath. Honestly, I think this is a better way to enjoy music while working out.

"Don’t tell me or it won’t happen."
I just turned one of those bold, round numbers that invites metaphysical thoughts about Time. Waking up at forty, I find myself in a body that feels healthy. From here, the past doesn’t look effortless: waking at six, workouts, repetitions, injuries, recoveries. But it does feel contingent. Perhaps a future version of me wished it so. Maybe a wish is not something that happens in the future, but something that selects a past.
Not an injection of energy, but a constraint on what histories are allowed, a pressure that filters the trajectories that can lead to this moment. There has to be a sequence of events that leads to the arrangement of me now. Perhaps this is the only history that survives the constraint of a wish I would one day impose: that I be well.
If so, thanks.

I just realized something..
I come from making games with algols where queuing animations used this awkward kind of junk:
.then(() => {}).then(() => {})
Even back then it felt shitty to work that way but it was all I ever known, and over time I'd read about continuations, or stringing along an env variable, it was just all bad, but you learn to live with it.
In catlangs, animation is absolutely seamless: `this then that` is a valid way of sequencing function because the atoms of a catlang can be concatenated. It's the ultimate functional programing scheme since there are no variable bindings to carry along each step of an animation.

An ultratourmaline light is ever present but for the luminescent ripple awakened by a wave breaking, the spark from two rocks colliding or the storms igniting the crests of dunes; but here, nothing natural grows with eyes to see it. Eyes came from elsewhere.
Shielded from the winds above, invisible but to the darkness, Den Azar kneels onto the wet fiberglass, bend over the feroplastic membrane, bite at the loose shale and succulent cables; masticates, voraciously, my precious fabric before sinking into a satiated sleep.
The blizzard accumulates in small mounds of ash around her ceramic legs and pools in the recesses of her closing golden eyes.
The storm blows itself out, glass, the ocean reflects nothing back. A million sunflowers at the bottom of the Abyss stir.
Den Azar kicks at suffocating miasma, it liquefies, a metallic arc lights up the night. A sunflower notices and immediately looses interest. He swims through the lye, caustic, immaterial, wormlike toward the surface. Two iridescent florets of gold bloom.

If you asked me when it was that I last went through a Bic pen, I wouldn't be able to tell you. Sometimes after my teen years, I stopped writing, I let others, Rek mostly, fill in papers for me, I've always hated my hand writing, I was slow at it and eventually I just didn't bother trying anymore.
About two years ago, I picked it up again and made a point of writing stuff down everyday, I got better and now I even like how I shape some of the letters. A minute ago, I was startled to see that I've nearly gone through one, from the pack of 10 black pens I bought, I think it might just about be the first time in my life.

I think I've developed something I call "beet superstition".
If I break a personal record, go up a plate, lift more than usual, I praise the beets I've had dinner the previous night. But then, if I have beets and struggle the next day, I blame the beets, they must have been old, or dried up things, surely the beets were wrong somehow.

I've had the immense fortune of living many lives, I spent my twenties playing musician and artist, my thirties, programmer and long-distance sailor. For as far back as I can remember, I've always wanted to be a generalist, and I've never regretted it. Somewhere between natural inclinations, inspiration, influences, and some more direct forces, I've tried to feel at the changes in the wind and find my place in the world accordingly.
My late twenties happened when rent prices were rising at a faster pace than I could keep up with doing what I enjoyed, coinciding with a market saturated with affordable second-hand vessels from the aging boomer generation. So, two vagabonds with relatively few means and a bit of technology, could find a sailboat and travel the world, not long ago this would have been unthinkable without considerable sponsorship. This makes me wonder just for how much longer this door will remain open until distances grow further apart once again.
We read of the golden age of blue water cruising and find their voyages to be as irreproduceable as our own are to others, just nine years ago, mainly due to bureaucracy, depopulation, aging infrastructure and destructive weather events. Countries are growing more insular, the weather more erratic and dangerous, the cost of living siphoning people's capacity to escape its whirlpool.
"The meaning of fitness is the capacity of an organism to survive."
At what feels like the tumultuous tail end of the anacyclotic cycle, considering this global trajectory, and our choosing this way of life, does not speak highly of our ability to plan against a changing environment and position ourselves favorably to it.
A decade of arts has given me a fervor to live and wanting to learn, a decade on the water has afforded me space to acquire some green skills. I spent near 40 years inside my head cultivating a place I liked, in circles where the body has always ever been the domain of vanity alone, thinking myself to be a generalist where in truth, only ever affecting a generalism of a highly specific sort.
It's a cruel twist that cognitive function decline is most acute on those around me who have exercised in all the ways of mind, but none of the body.

@nprofile…lmpz think of it like puredata or maxMSP, a uxn node(ex onscreen-keyboard) "bangs" the node it connects to, in a specific way, which is to mean using the device page. Every communication between instances is ever only done via the device ports. A better more complete system, would allow to connect any outgoing port to any incoming port, so you could write a outgoing Controller/key value, to a Screen/x port or anything.

@nprofile…lmpz makes it so writing to a device port, writes to the connected VM's device port and triggers a vector event(ex: evaluates the console vector when the console/key port is changed)

@nprofile…qlpc It was nice to meet you today Daniel, there was indeed a bug with tote! I hope you find a way to explore rewriting with Principle.

We just watched Alien: Prometheus, terrible film. But, I lost my shit when the alien logged in to the ship's controls by playing a tune on a flute.

Sailing into the wind with sunglasses sucks, you soon get a thick crust of salt over the lenses almost immediately.. There has to be a better way.
Snow goggles(ilgaak), perhaps?

@npub1ua7…rrg3 chances of it actually being kombucha are getting lower the more I read this post.

I've had had on my mind R. W. Kimmerer's writing on the Grammar of Animacy, in which she says that 70% of words in Potawatomi are verbs, as opposed to English in which only 30% are. Through the lens of an animist language, the hill is less there, than there is occupied at being a hill. She puts it succinctly in "A bay is a noun only if water is dead".

Meteorological happenings tend to be extremely camera shy, or straight up lethal to the camera itself, but a few days ago, we have seen the most beautiful solar rings(circular rainbows, sun aura) and were able to capture them on camera just as they appeared above our sail.

With the help of @npub1kqh…pus7, we're experimenting with an Arabic programming language which is itself compiled by an a toolchain that also does away with ascii entirely from the machine instructions up. We've chosen a variance of ASMO 449 encoded character codes, and use a few extra symbols(!, @, ?) which will be turned into decorations.
