I didn't think anyone would actually find their way to this dusty corner of the internet. I'm Michael Kinder, and it's fair to say I'm a bit of an eclectic soul – a gay nerd hailing from the rolling hills, forever powered by a borderline unhealthy amount of coffee. This whole blog thing is an experiment, kinda like those half-built contraptions I've got collecting dust in my workshop. I figure this might be a good place to dump some of the code snippets I tinker with, the wild ideas that keep me up late, and maybe even a finished project or two (if the tinkering gods smile upon me). Now, fair warning: don't expect a whole lot of consistency around here. I'm the type of fella who gets easily distracted by shiny things... whether that's some new tech puzzle, a philosophical rabbit hole, or just a particularly stubborn squirrel in my birdfeeder. Posts might pop up here and there, with topics probably just as random as my attention span. So, if you're into the musings of a nerdy caffeine enthusiast with a penchant for the unfinished and unexpected, well then, pull up a virtual chair and let's see where this journey leads!
