4 conferences across 3 cities in 10 days:
* 4/20 W3C AC Meeting (Huangzhou) “Challenging how we see the web” future of web browsers panel participant (remotely from San Francisco, on the evening of 2026-04-19)
* 4/21-23 Mozilla Leadership Summit (Boston)
* 4/25-26 IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf
* 4/27-28 beyond tellerand Düsseldorf

Somehow squeezed in a few personal events too:
* 4/20 Bostom Marathon cheering — managed to hike a half marathon myself that day!
* 4/26 Balu Brigada concert in Cologne
* 4/29 Cologne Cathedral tower climb

In total:

7 events across 4 cities in 12 days including travel time.

Saw, heard, spoke/designed/coded with so many inspiring people. So many notes, photos, and a few videos. Overall an incredibly positive (if exhausting) experience. It was highly illuminating contrasting the different sets of people, talks, practices etc., some overlapping, across all the events. An incredibly valuable overview perspective.

Throwback to 2009 at Steak 'n Shake with Kraz. Miss this guy. And Steak 'n Shake.

My Reachy Mini arrived today! Finished about half of the assembly and ran out of steam. Should finish tomorrow night. Looking forward to giving it a personality! #robotics

Had a bit of a technical snafu last night when rebuilding the ops pipeline for my site. Ended up overwriting production with staging data, and the backups were failing. Thought I was hosed, but thankfully I had a secondary backup that I had forgotten about.
