It’s 7:49 AM, do you know where your calculators are?
This is, 100%, a real text conversation I had with someone today.
Oddly, I never got a reply.

Great Scott!
I suppose could dazzle you with some technobabble about realigning the flux capacitors, but that’s not my style. ((Well, actually now that I think about it, this really is pretty on-brand for me.)) I took down the calculators this past weekend so I could perform some long-overdue upgrades and updates to the entire site.
You know when you take something apart, then put it back together again, and then you’ve got a pile of extra parts and then you have some ‘splainin’ to do? Yeah, this is pretty much exactly that.
I was hoping to have the calculators back online before 2AM on 8/31/2021, but now that the minute hand has started another revolution, this is clearly not happening.
When are they going to be back online? Soon – maybe tonight. But, I don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up.
In the meantime, feel free to send me some words of encouragement or let me know what you think about the new layout. If you do send me an email, I’ll let you know as soon as everything’s ready to start cruising at 88 MPH again.
Upgrades.
I’ve been working on some upgrades.
Better, Faster, Stronger
A friend brought a problem with the website to my attention. Their emails weren’t getting through – or were getting delayed. This kind of injustice cannot stand!
Thus, began a several day long dive down a rabbit hole of support questions, a deep look at code I’d written as long as ten years ago, and a few nights staying up to tangle with some esoteric settings.
What does my insomnia mean for you, kindly reader? Those of you who are paid or sponsored subscribers will enjoy better, faster emails of your calculations direct to your inbox.
Thanks Rafael!
