Notes on Week 15 of 2026

Japanese class picked up again on Wednesday night, after spring break last week. We worked on expressing reasons for things with 〜から and offering help with 〜ましょうか.

So, now I can say things like:

今日、外に行きませんでした。雨でしたから。
I didn’t go outside today because it was rainy.

And also things like:

暑いですね。窓を開けましょうか。
It’s hot, isn’t it? Shall I open a window?

Big stuff.

Lately I’ve been asking myself (again) what should I blog about?

I can’t see Apple’s Vision by Matt Duggan. Via Tess.

The Site for Prevention of Laptop Sales by Lars Ingebrigtsen. Also via Tess.

We Found a Ticking Time Bomb in macOS TCP Networking - It Detonates After Exactly 49 Days. Detailed writeup of a bug in the macOS TCP stack.

‘Animorphs’ is getting a TV reboot with Ryan Coogler’s Proximity Media producing. I was such a fan of this book series in late elementary school. Psyched to see it come back.

Let yourself fall down more by Nicole Tietz-Sokolskaya.

James reminded us (web developers) last year not to use “Click Here” for link titles, please.
