I’ve been trying to unify my microblog (https://jonhays.me) and my longform site (https://jonathanhays.me). I like how it’s coming together. @manton has really improved Micro.blog’s customization abilities!
I just spent way too long looking at/researching Varangian runestones. Someone should totally write a novel about these. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varangian_runestones
“Eat at a local restaurant tonight. Get the cream sauce. Have a cold pint at 4 o’clock in a mostly empty bar. Go somewhere you’ve never been. Listen to someone you think may have nothing in common with you. Order the steak rare. Eat an oyster. Have a negroni. Have two. Be open to a world where you may not understand or agree with the person next to you, but have a drink with them anyways. Eat slowly. Tip your server. Check in on your friends. Check in on yourself. Enjoy the ride.” –Anthony Bourdain.
So, I built something this week. It’s a Swift API/library for integrating with the Awair family of air quality monitors. I’ll try to write more about it later, but if you’re curious, you can find it here: https://airaware.dev
