Fiancée and I celebrated the new year at snow canyon state park. Beautiful and eerie in the rain, even if it obscured the “dark sky” stars. Luckily it cleared the morning we left, still got to see sunlight on the red rocks.

Rewatched Jaws. Spielberg is so effortless with his storytelling it's stupid. The car ferry oner is a masterclass of blocking,* and it's not even close to top 5 shots in this movie.

Lord of the io_uring: unixism.net/loti/index.h...

Charlie Kirk called me a ‘lunatic’ and a ‘prostitute’ and demanded I be deported. Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad. We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

I'm horrified by the shooting of Charlie Kirk at a college event in Utah. Political violence has no place in our country.
