A record of the total solar eclipse on 2021-12-04, in Antarctica (edit 3)

I'm continuing to work on A record of the total solar eclipse on 2021-12-04, in Antarctica. It's turning out to be a lot of media work.

I'm continuing to work on A record of the total solar eclipse on 2021-12-04, in Antarctica, in a draft form (so it doesn't show up on the page itself).

Unfortunately, the best pictures I have of totality are poorly lit and out of focus, and of course we couldn't see the eclipse itself. This isn't what I wanted. It's not what I would have chosen.

I'm continuing to replace images in my posts - next up is "Time spent on video games: worthwhile or wasteful?"

Post-migration work: other image replacement in code

I'm now done with updating "How to make a fractal" and "Sherlock Bayes, logical detective: a murder mystery game". That takes care of all the image replacements in the all the games coded in JavaScript in the blog.

Post-migration work: "15 puzzle: a tile sliding game"

I fixed up "15 puzzle: a tile sliding game". The fractal program is next.

Post-migration work: replacing images in code

The big questions brought up in my last post, about how to update the posts for this second pass, is still on my mind. I intend to spend some more time thinking about them. Meanwhile, there's still some basic work that can be done, without answering the big questions. I've updated the posts up to […]
