So #reddit seems to have decided today that the way to profit is to take away its nice "compact" mobile presentation and, instead, ceaselessly nag web users to switch to the app instead. The site has pretty much become unusable on mobile overnight.

The "request desktop site" option (*in the reddit settings*, not the browser equivalent) makes things a bit more tolerable.

My day to grumble, I guess.

Grumble.

At the very beginning of January I paid the extra fee for "expedited processing" of my passport renewal. Now travel is approaching and I still have no passport...just spent an hour on hold, only to hear that nothing can be done yet.

Time to step away and go for a bike ride, I guess.

They say that we can't control the weather, but I now have evidence to the contrary: just install solar panels on your roof, and you'll cause one of the cloudiest and snowiest winters in a long time...

Sometimes I'll put out an article and the world seems to get excited. Then, other times, I write about direct-map fragmentation and seemingly put everybody to sleep. I've never understood why people don't find these things fascinating...:)

Apologies if you were expecting email from me... Some days are just not meant to be spent at the keyboard.
