These were quite good.

2019 was a very special year for me because I married my wife, Nidya! I am so grateful and lucky to have met someone I love so dearly. We had a tiny wedding ceremony in Positano, Italy last May, and have been enjoying newlywed life this year.

My favorite daily ritual is sitting on my porch in the morning and drinking a cup of coffee. I like to nerd out about making it, and read a lot of blogs about people’s coffee setups and recipes. And they’re good! But many feature expensive equipment, highly precise measurements, and the freshest of ingredients.

Feel free to use it or improve upon it here! I’ve been setting up a lot of random services on personal servers lately and find myself reaching for SysVinit. There are other init systems but I can usually count on init.d to be on a random linux distro (Amazon Linux 1, for example does not have systemd).

I had an eventful 2018 and also I am not super active online, so I thought I’d share things that happened this past year. Nidya and I got engaged! 🎉 Fancy engagement photo Nidya and I met in DC 3 years ago and I am delighted to be marrying her!
