Hello, Blog!

Jul 28, 2021, 1 min read

Look at that - a whole blog, just for me! At this rate, the last thing I need to do to be a real tech guru is start a podcast.

I’m starting this page as a place to talk about my cool projects, dumb thoughts, and other odds-and-ends aspects about my life and work.

To set the tone, here’s a quick code function to find the geomethic meandian of a set of numbers in Python - in case the need ever arises.

Zen, and the Art of Laziness

Too much time to kill

This Monday, I started the last major semester of my undergraduate career. That’s right, folks - after six years, four program changes, and one brain surgery (which, in my personal opinion, is one too many), I will finally be wrapping up my degree!

Being a dork is a lifetime commitment

Flash back to 2007: Spencer Elkington, 4th grade extraordinaire. Oh, to be at my peak again. While I appreciate that secondary schools mandate that all kids have a well-rounded curriculum to introduce them to a wide span of different fields of study, I can safely say that one of my least favorite classes was art. While I didn’t not enjoy spending an hour cutting, painting, gluing, and molding, there are only so many burnt ceramics and skewed portraits I could churn out before they - and my parents to whom that “art” was gifted - realized that perhaps a budding patronage in the fine arts wasn’t going to be in the cards for me.

Arc Browser: Kicking off the Season of Rhythm

The Arc Browser is probably the first tool that slayed off a series of shake-ups on how I use technology to put up guard rails on being able to start - and stay - focused. It was also on their blog that I discovered Maggie Appleton’s blog - so in a way, it was very much a half-step into a pool of ideas that have helped me come to terms with the slightly-more-than-standardly chaotic way that I tend to work.

Caveat Lector: Reader Beware

Feb 27, 2024, 3 min read

The past few days have been a weird experience as I actively try to lower the internal bar for what I feel comfortable putting out into the world. As a proud member of the most terminally online generation to ever live, I have a deep and relentless fear of being wrong on the Internet.

In getting everything ready to re-publish this site as my own digital garden, I’ve started using the phrase “caveat lector” a lot. Back in my undergraduate degree, I learned about the phrase caveat emptor and caveat venditor:
