Afternoon Fun - Cherish

I give myself permission to have fun at 4:00 PM on a Tuesday. I give myself permission to put down the to-do list and pick up a puzzle, a paintbrush, or a playlist.

There is a specific kind of magic that lives between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM. It’s not the rush of the morning or the calm of the evening—it’s the pause . Cherish Afternoon Fun

Signed, Someone who chooses the sunshine. Theme: Actionable ways to cherish the afternoon. I give myself permission to have fun at 4:00 PM on a Tuesday

It’s the slant of golden light through the window. The first sip of a drink you didn’t rush to finish. A page of a book you aren’t being quizzed on. A conversation that has nowhere to go. It’s not the rush of the morning or

You can use this for a social media caption, a blog post, a newsletter, or a personal journal entry. Theme: Romanticizing the ordinary.

Free Tool - List Registry Links (REG_LINK)

Recently I got into a very interesting discussion with my colleague Nicholas Dille on various aspects of Windows x64. One question he brought up was especially intriguing: knowing about registry redirection, it is not astonishing to find that the 32-bit version of the registry key HKLM\Software\Classes (aka HKCR) gets to be HKLM\Software\Classes\Wow6432Node. But there is also HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Classes!? How can there be two different Wow6432Node 32-bit keys for one 64-bit key?

Free Tool: Refresh the Desktop Programmatically

I recently had the requirement to refresh the Windows desktop after certain changes had been made to Explorer’s registry entries. This seems simple at first: klick on any item on the desktop and then press F5. It wasn’t, though. The registry changes would be made upon logon by a software installation agent. It was expected by the customer that the end user see the the effects of the change immediately without any user intervention. That sent me hunting for a solution on the internet. I came across many forum posts that showed that many others already had exactly the same requirement. Interestingly, none of the proposed solutions actually worked. Except for one, which I found at last.

Scripted WordPress to Hugo Migration

Scripted WordPress to Hugo Migration

After having published in WordPress for almost 20 years, it was time for a change. This site is now rendered by Hugo, a static website generator built for Markdown content hosted in a Git repository. The migration from WordPress (HTML) to Hugo (Markdown) was far from trivial. Since I couldn’t find any tool for the job, I developed my own set of migration scripts that fully automate the migration process. You can find them on GitHub along with extensive documentation.
