I just finished a custom Hugo theme I’ve been working on. It’s called “Today I Learned,” and it’s perfect for both traditional blogging and building a knowledge base of shorter, informal notes for easy reference and sharing.

A cool feature: it graphs your content like Obsidian! It also supports side notes and highlights with admonitions.

I took a dive down a rabbit hole to try and get an old Macintosh OS system emulated on my m2Pro Mac mini. It looks like Basilisk II is the ticket!

1) a system boot rom (precursor to the NVRAM?)

2) a system boot disk (either as a floppy or HDD image)

The live system floppy disks are how old systems without a HDD booted. Even “newer" systems could use them and just not install the OS to the HDD. The modern equivalent are LiveDVDs that most Linux OSes provide.

the United States Fish & Wildlife Service maintains a searchable, public-access photographic Feather Database.

It's exactly as amazing as you might imagine. You can browse by family or species, and/or identify feathers you find lying about.

In related news, I came across a feather from a Northern Flicker on my lunchtime walk today.
