#ProTip: I hate cookie banners. I do not care: I can turn them off at will, regularly, automatically, or even selectively delete them. You do not have to animate them to get my attention. And no, despite what your highly overpaid paranoid lawyers might tell you, there is no law on Earth that […]

That feeling when you find out the guy that sold property to your great grandfather on your dad's side was a distant cousin on your mom's side. I shouldn't be surprised, but it's still cool. #Genealogy

Note to self: Don't delete blank lines when using ledger-narrow, unless you want to redo your ledger file.
