Racing Mind
I’ve never read so few books as I do now. After 15 minutes of reading, my mind races back to my projects. So, I’m having to pick the ones I’m really interested in. I’ve developed a tactic that has been working when I lose sleep: writing. I just go to the living room and start…

Back to Linux on the Desktop
After a year and a half of using Windows 10 (with WSL), I decided to come back to Linux. I feel that this year, 2025, the year of Win10’s support sunset, someone at Microsoft could have pressed a button and issued a system update that accelerated the so-called “Windows performance downward spiral” effect.
