Epiktistes is my home in the Fediverse. It is an instance of Ktistec, a single-user ActivityPub server like Mastodon, but with fewer users and fewer commits. Here's my introduction (last updated early-2025).
I wrote a series of posts about optimizing the performance of the Ktistec server, its build time, and its executable size: part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and part 5.
Some things I regularly write about, organized by hashtag:
I also wrote some #pointfreeverse.
the williamsburg bridge is still my favorite…
today was my second attempt to conquer the new york metropolitan museum of art—egyptian antiquities wing. the previous attempt met with failure due to insufficient provisions. i'm happy to report that i was successful, having viewed relics of 20+ dynasties. tomorrow i start on medieval arms and armor.
local bands playing in tompkins square park today… i ❤️ nyc
dragon con is over and i'm heading home. i spent much of my time in maker panels this year. attached is a picture of a drone built on a frame made from badminton rackets!
the team that built this was composed of grade school students!
this year for dragon con i printed a legion of little star wars inspired heads/beads to share/hide during the con. it's part of the tradition of swag n seek.

any rain is good but i feel like this little spigot is heading right at me..!
the thing about nyc is that I can’t decide if this is an accident or maybe an art installation…
