  • In praise of memory-leak-detection

    Nicolas Fella wrote a bit about enabling memory leak detection in KDE CI, and I thought I’d add some comments from a different software engineering environment (e.g. my work-work).

  • Debian SBuild for FreeBSD People

    For other-$WORK I am doing a bit of Debian packaging (prep-work) and upstream wrangling to bring some projects into a more-modern world. So now I have a Debian 13 workstation and need to build things for Debian Unstable without breaking my host system. On FreeBSD, this is a job for Poudriere. Here’s my notes on how I do something half-assedly similar on Debian (as usual, mostly documentation for “future me”).

  • 2025 Musically Wrapped

    I have a paper calendar. It hangs on the wall. I draw things on it, like 🎜 Kladderadatch, to remind me where to go of an evening (or this afternoon). At the end of the year, with that calendar and my ticket history from Doornroosje (a music podium in Nijmegen) I can reconstruct my concert visits of the year. Here’s my year wrapped.

  • Carrot Cake Recipe

    This is a recipe post. I’ve written this one down before, in 2010, but this time I used a scale and some measurements that make more sense in the Netherlands. Carrot cake in the Netherlands still elicits exactly two reactions: vies he? and oh, yummy!. That rabbit still doesn’t get it.

  • FreeBSD 14-to-15 Upgrade (Intel)

    This post has the notes I made while upgrading another laptop from FreeBSD 14 to FreeBSD 15. Since my first upgrade was a long and annoying process, I figured I would take notes for the second round. These notes are “how not to do it”, even if the end-result is KDE Plasma Wayland on FreeBSD 15, as desired.
