This is my /Now page, after Derek Sivers's proposal.
I've recently back in San Francisco after a few months on the east coast.
I'm doing a lot of generative art, some (but nowhere near all of which, yet) you see all over this site, as well as having a few pieces published as cover and internal illustrations for a not-for-profit poetry anthology published by UCSF's Poetic Medicine program at the MERI Center for Palliative Care at Mt Zion.
On the music front, for the last few months I've been practicing playing the lyre, as well as still regularly playing guitar, saxophone and clarinet. I have a 24-string lyre and expect to have a video or two posted in the reasonably near future.
Professionally, I'm working as an in-house FileMaker developer for an large educational nonprofit, as well as continuing with a few freelance FileMaker and web development projects in my off time. (Pitch: please check my resume on https://www.kupietz.com if you have or are aware of any opportunities.)
I also have scaled up my personal IT projects. I have been doing a ton of web development, mostly visible on this site and on my Github, and have spent the last two years slowly divorcing from various service providers and becoming my own: I currently host all my websites on my own server at home—you are fetching these electrons from a small computer in my living room. My email accounts and server security (CDN and proxying) are still hosted by commercial third-party hosts but that's all I'm still relying on outside services for.
For more detail than that, see the latest news page, or just check the front page of this site for new posts.
This /Now page is after Derek Sivers's proposal.

- Changed .metainfo > .dashicons {margin-bottom: -2px;margin-top: -2px; /* fix for dashicons raising text baselines in tags in meta info line */} to use ".page-header .metainfo > .dashicons" so didn't add weird spacing to metainfo in archove page post lists.
- Create ktwp-table-of-contents and ktwp-raw-html-shortcode plugins
- add :target {scroll-margin-top: 120px; /* o make named anchors always appear under sticky header */ }

- Added overflow-y:hidden during earthquake to prevent extra scrollbars from appearing.
- Discovered the earthquake was moving all .do-earthquake-children around the same origin, and, earthquake was being applied to invisible elements. Fixed both.

- Moved category "In Brief: Topical Short Takes" from "Written Snippets" category to "Blog Posts" and renamed it "You Can Quote Me On That: Topical Short Takes".
- Moved category "kwits" from top-level to a subcategory of "blog posts".

- Today Comcast (boo! hiss!) did some work in my neighborhood and knocked my server offline. I had a long, painful chat session with ChatGPT which ended with me eventually getting set up with cloudflare tunnels instead of using ddclient to update my IP address. The whole long, painful chat and terminal session are saved locally in my hard drive in the backups/admin > troubleshootiung logs folder in case I ever need to recreate what happened... you know, on the off chance GPT got something wrong. Virtually impossible, I know, but, just on the off chance.

- Changed yoast settings to put "movie review" in movie review page titles and turned on search engine indexing for individual reviews. They have canonical tags pointing to the main review page, let's see if they get indexed. Also added code to theme additions that shoudl do this if yoast wasn't involved, just for future reference purposes and currently commented out.
