This is my weblog! I post here occasionally, I guess.https://sen.fish/https://sen.fish/blog/posts/first-post/https://sen.fish/blog/posts/first-post/It's still a work in progress, but I've finally got my weblog up—I have a pretty bad habit of letting perfect be the enemy of good. I'm using the Astro static-site generator, which I haven't used before, so I'm learning as I go. For the design of the blog, I've taken a lot of inspiration from the websites at the Web Design Museum.Wed, 10 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMTSenhttps://sen.fish/blog/posts/notes-on-ran/https://sen.fish/blog/posts/notes-on-ran/I saw Akira Kurosawa's Ran at the theater today. Even though I knew the film was an adaptation of King Lear, I was surprised in just how many ways the film lined up with the play beat for beat. My partner suggested that this might be a universal tendency (pitfall?) for cinematic adaptations of Shakespeare. Regardless, I got some interesting things out of the film from picking apart the differences.Fri, 12 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMTSenhttps://sen.fish/blog/posts/you-should-undercook-your-chicken/https://sen.fish/blog/posts/you-should-undercook-your-chicken/Chicken cooked to the temperatures recommended by food safety agencies results in meat that is dry and tough. I'm not suggesting that you serve up chicken sashimi, but there is more nuance to cooking chicken than is common knowledge.Mon, 22 Jun 2026 00:01:01 GMTSen
