In the latest migration to a new virtual private server, some of the links to images in the earliest posts to this blog were broken. If you encounter one of these broken links, please let me know. I have backups and can restore the images.
There’s only one person who agrees with me on everything, and, as I’m not running for office, that person is not on the ballot.

This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

“It’s a really gnarly, gnarly thing having to deal with Washington,” venture investor and Fwd.us co-founder Chamath Palihapitiya said at a conference last month. “I’m glad that other people other than me are dealing with it who have the patience and the resolve to figure it out.”
Well, when you have people who think they’re smarter than everyone else who expose themselves in the media saying the above, one might expect ridicule and disassociation. It’s a gnarly, gnarly thing. Anyway, Musk, as the maker of the ultimate electric car for the wealthy set, well it would seem to be counterintuitive to support anything that means a radical increase in greenhouse gas. Lindsay Graham, as a pol, stands for sedition. He’s as well-liked as crab lice. And anyone who thinks a nobody like Dem Mark Begich will be a significant voice in anything is a gold-plated fool. Zuckerberg’s just an opportunistic libertarian and if he really started talking about what he believes — I’m betting he’s a closet fascist who believes corporate kleptocracy equals tech meritocracy — everyone else would run away, too.

On top of everything else, the fact that they know “gnarly” is rad, lad.
