I’ve given up following the narrative. There’s some kind of receiver and some beacons and maybe still some monkeys? I don’t know. The puzzles have gotten more challenging, more interesting, and more time-consuming.

The elves are on their expedition. They’re building tree houses and tossing people into rivers. A computer was involved somehow. We approached this with both Rust and Haskell.

Ranking Kate Bush Songs With Svelte (and ChatGPT)

19 minute read

Published:

Kate Bush has (roughly) 29 singles that charted in the U.K. The count is a little foggy because it’s not clear what should and shouldn’t be called a single. For example, Running Up That Hill charted three times: once in 1985, supporting the Hounds of Love Album; again in 2012 as a remixed version played for the 2012 London Olympic Games; and once again in 2022 after it was used in a Stranger Things episode. So I made some executive decisions and ended up with a list of 29.

The GPS watch I bought last November was broken. Industry standard GPS watches make a recording once every second and log it to a .gpx file, but mine wasn’t doing that. Sometimes it was logging every second, sometimes it wasn’t. In this post, I explore and visualize the data logged by my failing GPS device.
