Systems and Delays
Systems and Delays 2026-07-24 where delays are shown to be counterintuitive. Leaving the house (and the country) for a week or two during the holiday season is a great time to get out of my stereotypical ways of passing free time (entirely too much YouTube, Lobste.rs, HackerNews and BlueSky) and try something else. I’m happy to announce I managed to get through all three of these goals: I’ve created a bitmap font (though I still have kerning and accents to go through), devoured the post-apo novel (it was okay), and got through the systems book!

Leaving the house (and the country) for a week or two during the holiday season is a great time to get out of my stereotypical ways of passing free time (entirely too much YouTube, Lobste.rs, HackerNews and BlueSky) and try something else. For my recent vacation I have packed some grid paper to make a bitmap font, and two books: the first one was Nachové pustiny: a Czech post-apocalyptic novel to get some inspiration for my “Fallout but in Czech Republic” MMO game, and the other was Thinking in Systems: a book recommended at work (and bought with my work education budget) which was collecting dust in my bookshelf for a good few months now.
