Penguicon party 2013!
<p>My blogging will be light or nonexistent over the next week.  I&#8217;m on the road in Michigan, at Penguicon; the Friends of Armed and Dangerous party will be here at 9:00 tonight.</p>
<p>It really is the 21st century.  Yesterday I merged a bunch of patches, ran acceptance tests, and then polished and shipped a reposurgeon release &#8211; while in the passenger seat of a car tooling down I-80. The remarkable thing is that this no longer seems remarkable.</p>
<p>I discovered in the process that while i3 is the best thing since sliced bread on a 2560&#215;1440 display, a tiling window manager is pretty uncomfortable on a laptop-sized 1366&#215;768 display.  The problem is that even dividing the laptop screen only in half produces shell and Emacs windows that are narrower than their natural 80-column size rather than wider as on the larger display; one gets the text in email and source code wrapping unpleasantly. I&#8217;ve fallen back to XFCE for laptop use.</p>
<p>In two hours, Geeks With Guns.  Going to be a full day.</p>
