The Boston Diaries

The ongoing saga of a programmer who doesn't live in Boston, nor does he even like Boston, but yet named his weblog/journal “The Boston Diaries.”

Go figure.

Something something Independence something something Declaration something something Blow Stuff Up

It just now became the Forth of July™ and earlier this evening (which was technically yesterday, Wednesday, July 3rd) some people were illegally lighting off fireworks already. I guess as a random quality test of the munitions they've aquired. So to them, and to you, I wish you a happy and safe National Blow Stuff Up Day!

[Amateurs: There's a reason professionals exist.]

And for the curious, the above image was taken by me 21 years ago. Yikes!

And it was 13 years ago when my hair nearly caught on fire, so when I say “be safe,” I mean it.

Obligatory AI Disclaimer

No AI was used in the making of this site, unless otherwise noted.

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go ahead, I won't bite. I promise.

The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent links to that entry only. The format for the links are simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are interested in, say 2000/08/01, so that would make the final URL:

https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01

You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.

You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that important.
