I'm instructing at our club's annual performance driving school this weekend and having at least as much fun as the students.

I'd say `democracy++` but that feels too optimistic for this timeline.

I got a new device last night, so naturally the first thing I did was install Tailscale.

It's not just because stanning Tailscale is kind of my thing, but also because Taildrop (tailscale.com/kb/1106/taildrop) makes it super easy to share files directly to this e-ink writing tablet thing. Very slick.

Also, I'm really impressed with the tablet so far (BOOX Air3 C). More on that later.

Attention all drivers in the North Alabama / Tennessee Valley area: it's time to learn to drive better.

Our local car club is hosting our annual Performance Driving School on March 8-10, and you really should come out! It's a fun and educational time for drivers of all experience levels.

I attended the school three years in a row and learned a ton, and I've now been instructing for several more years (and learning even more). Come hang out!

I did some tinkering with my omg web page (jbowdre.lol) this week, and was able to embed data from my weather station without putting secrets in the client-side JavaScript.

Here are some quick notes on the setup: scribbles.jbowdre.lol/post/nea

This was a really fun little project for me, so I'll probably share more technical details on the bigger blog soon.

My wife's working on her Dune Legos so I guess I'll tackle my new Erector set.

I told Strava my name was Pants Armstrong.

This cracks me up every time.

I can't leave well enough alone so my site now automatically deploys to via a GitHub Action.

Details soon.

When you show up to a hot rod race thinking it was something totally different.

I don't feel like it was all that long ago when I had to wait longer than that to download an MP3.
