I just opened a terminal, did a double-take and knew instantly there was a leap year bug in code I wrote almost 25 years ago.
Somehow I didn't run into it the last 5 times it could have happened.

A quick and dirty cross-platform charting "library" in 200 lines that can crappily plot half the different kinds of charts out there on your computer or phone. And you can do surgery to it right on your phone.
I think I would never have gotten around to publishing this one if I'd known how much work proof-reading it was going to be.

I'm finally frustrated enough with the state of Mastodon search to start implementing my own local archive. If it's ever on my feed, it should be a grep away.
There are performance issues in putting search on the instance that disappear entirely if everyone just archives everything locally (and the archiver doesn't hammer at the instance too much)

Try Pong Wars out on your mobile device.
This cute little program has been doing the rounds. Credit: Koen van Gilst; name from this implementation, though I tend to think of it as Yin-Yang for Pong. Maybe Pin-Pong?

I've been trying today to come up with a word that precisely evokes "text but not terminals".
Structured data. Not too much. Mostly text.
