Captain’s Blog

Personal blogs on a personal website, written on a personal computer that isn’t really mine

The 2021 MacBook Pro may not be perfect, but I have (nearly) zero regrets about choosing this machine, which doesn’t happen very often.

As 2022 draws to a close, I wanted to do a quick retrospective; what made me mad, sad, and glad this year?

This guide describes how I work. Useful for stalkers and future co-workers (current ones get access to a more complete version).

It’s the last day of the year, which means it’s time to reflect on all the things that have happened in the past twelve months.

I’m won’t be applying for a PhD any time soon, but if I were, my ~~short~~longlist would probably look a bit like this.

Now that Chuniversiteit has (more than) 100 articles, it’s time to reflect on the past three years and look towards the future.

For reasons that are no longer clear to me, I tried to name each of my computers after a space shuttle (and gave up after 22 years).

This page keeps track of my humble LEGO collection that I (passively) built up over the past decades.

Why I organise my books by colour, and why you should too.
