Huntertones and a Bunch of Movies (Weeknotes

🤧 I started the week still feeling pretty crappy. I decided to go for a halotherapy session on Tuesday in hopes that it'd get the sinuses moving and maybe get some relief. It was very relaxing, but relief would not be mine until Wednesday or Thursday.
📜 I renamed my “Projects” page to “Artifacts” and reorganized a bit. I did this because I wanted to add a copy of a presentation I gave at work on the topic of “Demystifying Generative Artificial Intelligence.”
📻 I hacked an Ikea cabinat and used it to reorganize my ham radio operating station, aka the shack. Now that it’s cold outside, I’ll be spending more time with this hobby.
🎄 My wife and elder daughter took a trip to France for Christmas, so it’s been quieter than usual around the house. On the plus side, my younger daughter and I took the opportunity to get dinner out and do some Christmas shopping.
🎺 On Friday I went with some friends to Natalie’s to see the Huntertones, a horn-driven jazz band that formed here in Columbus. They usually come back to town in December and put on a helluva a show. They played tracks from the new album, Motionation, as well as some old favorites.
😃 Maique sent me a very nice surprise, which I put immediately to work.

Watching
I’m happy to report that we finished watching the final season of Yellowstone. It’s been a great run, but the time has come for it to be over.
Reading
Writing for Foreign Affairs, Mitch McConnell gets it partly right in “The Price of American Retreat”—even if for some of the wrong reasons.
Christmas is coming. Have you been naughty or nice? Don’t worry, Santa knows.
