My Quest to Run a 20 Minute 5K at 50 Years Old

by dv June 14, 2020 No Comments

After last week’s entry I knew I couldn’t keep writing rote recitations every week. And as I’ve gotten back into running I’ve been watching various running YouTube channels like Sage Running, Seth James DeMoor, and MileSplit. I watch them for motivation, entertainment, and arm-chair quaraterbacking if I’m honest. So I thought, since I’m excited about […]

Return of the Lifeless Training Log

by dv June 7, 2020 No Comments

I used to blog regularly about my running. When my enthusiasm and passion for running waned, my blogging died with it. Maybe they died in concert, me just losing passion for the hobby. Back then I was continually improving, getting faster, increasing mileage, running new workouts, finding new insights, setting new personal records. Although, looking […]

Why I Quit Running

by dv June 2, 2020 No Comments

I was talking to my friend Pat the other day about why I stopped running seriously almost a decade ago. I told him, “the moment I crossed the finish line of my last marathon (the 2011 Houston Marathon), I knew I was done. People didn’t believe me when I told them afterwards, but in my […]

The Beauty of Explosions in the Sky and The World Is Not A Cold Dead Place

by dv March 28, 2020 No Comments

Everyone has their preferences, and I’m not here to change yours, or even to argue for mine. I’m no expert, or even particularly insightful, and I’ve even claimed not to listen to music because it can be too manipulative. But being a critic is easy, and creating beauty is hard, so when we find it […]

Migrating a Laravel application to Symfony

by dv April 15, 2019 No Comments

When I started at the day job about 6.5 years ago, I inherited a jumble of custom PHP/MySql web applications. One of my first goals, after migrating a Drupal 6 site to Drupal 7 (ugh!), was migrating the custom PHP applications to a coherent and supported framework. I evaluated a few smaller frameworks (Slim, F3), […]

Hitting some park jumps at Eldora

by dv February 24, 2019 No Comments

“Steeze”: adjective. “Style” and “ease”. Also known as “that which I lack.” Hit Eldora yesterday with Lili and had a blast lapping the lower mountain. Took on some of the medium jumps and made a video, found below. Sound on for cheesy music, else the lack of steeze is almost unwatchable.

No Instagram: “follow” Instagram users without having your own account

by dv February 11, 2019 1 Comment

I got rid of my Instagram account (and Facebook account) some time ago, but I’d still like to see photos from my wife and our dog, without being tracked or gamified into addiction. To do that, I was just visiting the Instagram website for each public user I wanted to view, but that was way […]

Loading Files to a Docker Container on Startup

by dv February 7, 2019 No Comments

I recently had the problem where I needed to load files into a Docker container, but only once, and only at the startup of that container. Specifically, these were signing certificates stored in an S3 bucket. Obviously (I hope), we don’t want to bake sensitive certificates and keys into a Docker image, so we need […]
