I’ll follow up with a more detailed post in a ~week or so, but if you are considering purchasing a Kucht appliance, please, please reconsider your decision. They have repeatedly lied to us (I have proof) and are incapable of manufacturing functioning equipment. Thanks to them, we are out thousands of dollars and are in… Continue reading

2022 Hanukkah of Data • Puzzle 1
Visiting #2 and doing some $WORK-work, but intrigued with Hanukkah of Data since Puzzle 0 was solvable with a ZIP password cracker (the calendar date math seemed too trivial to bother with). Decided to fall back to R for this (vs Observable for the Advent of Code which I’ll dedicate time to finishing next week)…. Continue reading
Arc You Ready For A New Browser?
Cross-post to Substack where I dropped some details on the newest browser in town: Arc. Intro: It feels like it’s been forever since The Browser Company started teasing us about their new browser, Arc. I did the dance many of you almost certainly did and typed in my throwaway email address to try to get… Continue reading
Honk If You Like The Fediverse!
This is a re-post from today’s newsletter. I generally avoid doing this but the content here is def more “bloggy” than “newslettery”. You can now receive these blog posts in your activity stream. Just follow @hrbrmstr@rud.is and the new posts from here will slide right into your timeline. So, you’ve committed to abandoning the bird… Continue reading
Into The Fediverse!
This is more of a test post after enabling some new Fediverse features on the server. Said Fediverse got a bit more real-ish this week (with moderate apologies to the pioneers in this space who’ve languished for ~five years) You can find me at: @hrbrmstr@mastodon.social (general blathering/primary masto-account) @hrbrmstr@infosec.exchange (reserved for cybersecurity chatter) @hrbrmstr@rud.is (the… Continue reading
Fall Foliage: JavaScript/OJS Edition
I’ve been (mostly) keeping up with annual updates for my R/{sf} U.S. foliage post which you can find on GH. This year, we have Quarto, and it comes with so many batteries included that you’d think it was Christmas. One of those batteries is full support for the Observable runtime. These are used in {ojs}… Continue reading
New Chrome Extension To Turn Observable Notebooks Into Quarto Projects
My previous post announced a Rust-based command line tool for generating Quarto projects from Observable Notebooks. Some folks may not want to use yet-another command line tool, and it dawned on me that it’d be more convenient to just do the conversion in-browser when one is already on a Notebook page. So, I dusted off… Continue reading
