Jekyll on sourcehut pages
In a New Year’s resolution-driven attempt to un-Microsoft-ify my life, I’m moving all of my repositories over from GitHub (owned by Microsoft) to sourcehut (owned by some dude). This blog was the first repo to make the switch and was previously hosted via GitHub Pages, and now uses sourcehut pages instead. Here’s the config I created to make the CI-driven deployment work:
The Books of 2025
This year I read a surprising (to me) amount of books: 21 according to my notes, 6 more than last year. Here they are, listed chronologically in reading order. I’ll also list my favorite reads towards the end of the post.
Copyleft From Now On
I’ve been putting my work online in various formats for almost 20 years now. For most of that time, I’ve used extremely permissive licenses such as the MIT License to distribute my work in an attempt to promote usage and adoption. Now that I’m quite a bit older and experienced (you may say curmudgeony), let me tell you why I’m changing my tune and am adopting a Copyleft approach.
In the past decade or so, I’ve noticed a widespread adoption of the MIT license, even by those who in the past opposed Open Source Software as a concept. Why the swing and why so extreme? You’d think that those companies would slowly adopt Open Source rather than going all-in all at once. What’s going on?

Someone close to me asked me how I keep track of everything without losing track, so I figured I’d outline it here. The system is easy to use and relatively loose but with enough structure to be consistent.
