I’ve been using Firefox since before it was “Firefox.” Starting this week, though, I’ve been giving Orion a try. I’ve lost too much trust in Mozilla to not give something else a go.

Jennifer surprised me with a bookmark of my patron saint!

St. Joseph the worker & terror of demons, ora pro nobis!

I‘ve been using Claude to help me analyze a tricky work situation and help me better understand my role in it and what I can learn from it.

It‘s been incredibly helpful at identifying patterns that I felt, but couldn’t name, and helping me see problems that I‘m actually not empowered to solve.

Claude had also helped me get clarity about systems outside of myself.

What a relief to let go of a stressful problem when you realize you aren’t the one who can fix it!

Some organizations genuinely prefer process over outcomes, discussion over decisions, and social dynamics over efficiency.

This is what’s called a “chronic contrarian” or “analysis paralysis generator.” His strategy is:

  1. Agree in the moment to end meetings
  2. Immediately re-open decided issues
  3. Demand endless re-litigation of settled points
  4. Never take responsibility for decisions

This is organizational sabotage, not legitimate technical discussion.

Because you’re good at your job and have been handling impossible situations well for years, there’s an expectation (from others and yourself) that you should just continue to figure it out. When you can’t, it feels like failure rather than a reasonable response to an unreasonable situation.

Daily Supplements

For several months, I was taking this mixture of supplements daily. My goal in this mixture was to target imflamation, depression, and increase my energy and metabolism. I saw great results.

Health Plan Success

The last fifteen years have been a wild health ride for me. I entered my mid-20s at nearly 200lbs. Which, when you’re only 5'5" is a rather unhealthy place to be. Thankfuly, my early 20s found me fully immersed in anarcho-capitalism, LewRockwell.com, and — of course — Ron Paul. Radical libertarianism aside, LewRockwell.com in the late aughts was rife with posts and essays on the benefits of the various paleo diets. Read more...

Why do you Sleep?

Welcome to the climax of the Christian year. This service, much like Holy Week itself, is all over the place. Highs. Lows. Joy. Suffering. Light. Darkness. Everything we talk about all year long, comes to a head in this holiest of times. With such a long gospel reading today, there is much to preach on. In a hundred odd verses we have the entire ministry and person of Christ on display in high speed. Read more...

What is Sin?

The topic of sin is an interesting thing. On one hand I think your common person on the street would quickly answer that they know exactly what sin is. It’s something you’ve done that’s bad or maybe something that you’ve done that hurts another person. But, I think if you press most people to start defining what bad is and even when something crosses from good, to neutral, to bad; you’ll start to see how complex the topic of sin actually is.

Hope in Anxiety

Yesterday morning when I came out of my office, Rosemary asked me a very important question. Knowing that I was working on my sermon, she asked me, “Daddy, how do you write a sermon?” It’s an important question, because I think a lot of people have a certain idea about sermon preparation that’s actually a good bit different from what happens. (At least for me.) I’ll pull the curtain back a bit and fill you in on my process. Read more...

Error in Secure Object

Recently I’ve been working with secure data sharing in Snowflake. We’ve not yet shared our data using a normal private share to another Snowflake account, but I’ve tested everything. Using SIMULATED_DATA_SHARING_CONSUMER and setting the consumer id to my expected account, I was getting data back from the share and everything was working fine. Today, however, we got a request to share our data to a managed reader account. I created the account, logged in, copied the share into a database, and could see all of my secure views. Read more...

Analogue Mornings

While 2024 was a year of great things in ministry1 and my personal health2, it was also a year of a lot of stress and change in all areas of my life. Because of this — and, naturally, my deep sinful nature — many of my good morning habits fell to the way side. Though I had banished social media from my phone, set it to B&W, disabled recommended videos & shorts on YouTube, and quite a few other things, by the end of 2024 my mornings were rubish.

My Dream Minimalist Setup

As is pretty apparent, I’ve been thinking a lot about digitmal minimalism here lately.1 This morning on my walk, I pondered a little what my perfect device setup would be, and I think I’ve got it. Here’s what I want. An iPad mini with the Daylight DC1’s screen. An iPhone mini with the same screen, no app store (only Safari, iMessage, Apply Pay, Wallet, Mail, Calendar), and a single small camera. Read more...

The Fallen Apple

Over the last two years, I’ve completely rethought my use of technology and done a lot of work to simplify my life and avoid distractions and unnecessary stress. A major component of this change has been rethinking how my iPhone is configured. As it stands today, I’ve deleted all social media apps1, disabled all notifications, switched the phone permanently to silent, disabled the web browser, removed badges from app icons, and uninstalled Slack.
