This one’s still basically dead, but I’m giving blogging a try again over at my new(ly repurposed) personal site. Mostly software engineering talk for the moment, but it’s not going to be just a coding blog. If you’re one of the half-dozen people who liked my posts over here, there will probably be some you’ll like over there, too, eventually.

Eight years
Fineness & Accuracy is eight years old today.
Seven Years
Fineness & Accuracy is seven years old today.
6 Years
Hey look, Fineness & Accuracy is six years old today! And I don’t really post here much anymore. We’ll see if that changes; sometimes things go in cycles, but sometimes they end.
Anyway, six years is a decent span of time. Thanks to everyone who’s read and/or linked my posts.
New Year
Happy 2012, everyone, and here’s to a good one. I managed a few posts I thought were pretty good, this year, and a lot more that I’d have liked to write about went unremarked for lack of time and/or concern I didn’t have anything new or useful to add. And unfortunately I continued to do nothing at all with I Am Not a Ninja, so I need to reconsider what I even want to do with that blog, this year.
In any case, I think today’s a day for laziness.
Four Years
It’s been four years since I launched Fineness & Accuracy, and in that time I believe my posting rate has dwindled quite impressively. I hope you’ll all — all three of you! — continue with my on my asymptotic journey toward zero.
Quick Hit: Whut?
Among the recent search terms that have been bringing people to my blog, apparently, are “randy milholland misogynist” and “hate randy milholland”.
Uh…
Y’all, you’ve come to the wrong place.
Welcome!
I see I’ve been getting a relatively high number of visitors lately, mostly from links to I Don’t Care if You’re Offended via Reddit, Tumblr, Twitter, etc. Hello! I’m happy to see people reading, and I hope enjoying, my work.
If you look around, you may notice that my posting frequency has dropped significantly. I’m hoping to bring the rate back up somewhat in the coming year, but it’s anyone’s guess how well I’ll succeed at that. In any case, thank you for reading, and I’ll try to be worthy of continued attention.
2011, Already?
Well, may it not suck. Happy new year, anyone still reading — posting fell off here pretty badly, but I’ll see whether I can’t do better (and actually start getting some stuff up on I Am Not A Ninja, too) next year.
A Sad Anniversary
One year ago today, I wrote:
Hilzoy, one of the greatest in the game, is stepping out.
Go well, Ms. H.: we’ll all be poorer for lacking your voice, which was always among the sharpest, clearest and brightest on every topic you chose to tackle. I can think of few bloggers who can approach the quality of writing which seems to simply be your natural element.
I wonder, sometimes, whether Hilzoy still feels, as she did then, “…that the madness is over. There are lots of people I disagree with, and lots of things I really care about, and even some people who seem to me to have misplaced their sanity, but the country as a whole does not seem to me to be crazy any more.” Her farewell had a tone of finality to it, so I don’t expect she’ll return to blogging, and it would be foolish to begrudge that; but I do miss her voice.
