Notes for the Week #12 (2026) This week note covers the week of 23rd–29th March. Over the seas and far away ## Life# The biggest change to my life last week is: I started going to the gym! Well, it’s only been two days, and my body is all sore, but I have a good feeling about this. This is the gym at my work, and it’s got all kinds of equipment. I don’t know anything about anything yet so I have to frequently ask the trainers for help. I’m also training for the 5km running race that I signed up for, following the Garmin Coach plan. It wanted me to do a long run last weekend, but I was so wiped out from going to the gym that I just couldn’t. Hopefully, my stamina will improve soon. A graduated from playschool last week and will join the Kindergarten next month. We attended A’s graduation ceremony and I took many photos and videos. So proud of my little one. Between work, gym, chores and running, I didn’t find much time for many things last week, so not much to write about this time. ## Personal Projects# I continue working on the to-JS compiler for Co. Currently, I’m trying to improve the type inference to reduce the number of runtime checks and improve the performance. I am reading the Nimble type inferencing paper that seems quite relevant to my case. This is going to take a while. I did some miscellaneous fixes for the IndieWebClub BLR website but I still haven’t gotten the Bridgy Fed integration working. No matter, it’s low priority. On that note, the next IWCB meetup is about Writing Tools. It’s gonna be very interesting, get your tickets now! I did a small visual refresh of my website. If you are a frequent visitor, you may have noticed the changed fonts and the new logo. I mostly made the font use consistent, so that headers are always same one font, and same for tags, text etc. I made the new logo from scratch by myself in Monodraw. I like it quite a lot. ## Watching# Wife and I finished watching One Piece on Netflix, and both of us loved it. Next season is going to take a couple of years so we may start watching the anime now. I finished watching Frieren season 2. This season was a short one with only ten episodes. It left me wanting for more. Next season will come late in 2027; the wait is so long. On a good note, forth season of Invincible is out. Last season was gory and brutal so I’m hoping for some lighter moments this time. I did not yet get a chance to watch Project Hail Mary in the movie theater. All my friends are talking about it. ## Social Media# I’m not posting much on Mastodon these days though I read it quite a bit. ## Interesting Internet Links# * Thoughts on slowing the fuck down * Improve the RSS experience of your blog readers * Optimizing GoAWK with a bytecode compiler and virtual machine That’s all for this week.

It's been a fairly steady week; a client face-to-face, some Q2 strategy tidying, and a couple of long-gestating creative projects finally out the door.
Also started watching "Poker Face". Natasha Lyonne is brill.

Weeknotes 2026-03-22 TOC * The World * My Week * Media Diet * Reading * Watching * Gaming * Walking and Health and the Weather * Word Power * Links of Interest * Looking Forward ### The World * The Iran conflict enters its fourth week! Trump calls allies cowards for not helping open the Strait of Hormuz. Gas prices are terrible. Trump has given a 48-hour ultimatum to open the strait, let's see what happens when Iran doesn't do it. * RIP Chuck Norris and Nicholas Brendon ### My Week * Cleanup/Archival work: Exported old emails into a new (local) django app to make them easily searchable. A couple of hundred thousand mails reaching back to the 2000s! Also went through a bunch of old MTG draft chaff and threw out a bunch. And sorted out my clothes closet and tossed out some terrible old ones. And a bunch of other digital archival work that I don't want to discuss publicly. * More renovations happening in the house this weekend, hopefully everything is done after today. * Trivia team attended quiz night last Thursday! * On the blog: Wrote about the PlayStation 2! ### Media Diet #### Reading * Books: Hogfather (Discworld #20). Started this one back up again. At the current rate, will probably finish next week. * Comics: Still struggling to keep up, as per usual. * Feed reader backlog: Feed reader is at 169 unread items as of this writing, a bit more than the past couple of weeks, as I have been a bit remiss in keeping up. #### Watching * Started: **Invincible S4**. * Ongoing: **The Pitt S2** , **High Potential S2** , **Scrubs S10** , **Fallout S2** * Stalled: **The Simpsons S37** * Movies: No new movies again this week. #### Gaming * Regular ongoing live-service games: * **Magic Arena** : I was doing relatively well in TMNT quick draft, until I hit Diamond rank at least. After that, got hit with 0-3 after 0-3, as if the game was putting me in my place! * Single-player games: * Ongoing: **Pathfinder: Kingmaker** (Steam). * Started: **Valkyria Chronicles** on the Steam deck. This was the first PS3 game I played and finished! * Putzing Around: **One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3** on the Steam Deck still. ### Walking and Health and the Weather For the past week (Sunday to Saturday), Google Fit tells me I walked 60,952, a tiny bit more than last week. We enjoyed some chill weather at the start of the week, but the past few days have gotten really hot again. I read somewhere that the monsoon is ending, so we may be looking at an official "dry season" announcement from PAGASA soon. ### Word Power More words from the NYT Spelling Bee: * BULGUR: Parched cracked wheat * COIR: Coconut fiber * FRUG: 1960s dance craze * FROUFROU: Fussy or showy dress or ornamentation * HARICOT: A French bean * RHOTIC: Pronouncing the letter r wherever it appears ### Links of Interest Nothing this week sadly. ### Looking Forward * Daredevil Born Again season 2 drops this coming week! I'm already watching a lot, but they'll probably get bumped back for this one! * I still have yet to watch Project Hail Mary. Maybe this coming week? * Patient#1 is scheduled for one of her big regular annual tests this week, hopefully everything goes smoothly and the results end up good.

Service Co-design practice and research week-notes 151. Today is the anniversary of the birth of BF Skinner. This week has been a lot about #AI 😊💎 @ougradsch.bsky.social #phd #design #research #psychology #servicedesign #codesign #weeknotes #behaviouraldesign

Notes for the Weeks #11—12 (2026) This week note covers the weeks of 9th–22nd March. ## Life# I skipped writing the week note last week because I got too lazy after being caught up in things I’ve been doing. So I’m writing this one to cover both weeks. Life has been hectic but good. All the usual activities continue, with some new things added. I went for a short run last week after a gap of almost 11 months. It was only 2km but it felt great to get started again. My stamina is gone completely, and I feel like I’m starting from scratch. Regardless, I’m happy to be in right mindset and health to be able to start running again. After some hesitation, I bought an entry in the Jatre run for a 5km race. I signed up for a Garmin coaching plan to prepare. Hopefully it’ll not be too much for me. Later in the year, I want to start going for 10km races again. We had some holidays last week on occasion of Ugadi and Eid. A really wanted to go to a mall (I guess A’s school taught about what malls are), so we went to a nearby one on Ugadi. It was fun to see A running around excited. Weird weather all around last week. We had a sudden cold day and hailstorm between the usual hot summer days. I heard some parts of the country experienced unexpected dust storms. This upsets me a lot. **Current daily average steps per month** : 10106 ## Personal Projects# I finally got long stretches of time to start working on my new project: writing a Co to JavaScript compiler. I got a rudimentary compiler working for a subset of Co features. Before writing the compiler, I actually reverse-engineered the Co interpreter and wrote a spec and tests so that I can make sure that the compiler works exactly same as the interpreter. My friend Steven had Claude code implement an interpreter from the spec and tests only. It took Claude only 15 minutes to do that! Well, I do my personal projects for my learning and practice, so I’m not going use LLMs to do them, but it’s amazing (and terrifying) to see what they can do now. ## IndieWebClub Bangalore# After a gap of two months, I went to an IWCB meetup yesterday. It was a tech session where all the attendants co-worked on their websites. The turnout was great, we almost ran out of seats (I expect a large digest in the upcoming newsletter). I met many interesting folks working on fun stuff. If you are interested in making your own website and/or blogging, I definitely recommend you attend one of these meetups. In the meetup, I worked on adding Fediverse support for the IWCB website using Bridgy Fed. It sort of works. But all blogroll posts are not showing up in the account somehow. I need to debug this. ## Watching# I paused watching everything and wife and I started One Piece on Netflix. Over the two weeks, we rewatched the season 1 and just now we got started with the second season. It is amazing and everyone should watch it. ## Interesting Internet Links# * Flame and Filament * A sufficiently detailed spec is code * Good Haskell Libraries That’s all for this week.

As I’m wrapping up my time on the Planning Data platform, I’ve written two case studies that cover two big pieces of work.

This was made much, much easier by documenting the work in public through #weeknotes and blog posts, another good reason to work in the open.
