Stuff Done
Continuing to move things over the Hetzner, although I am aware of some reluctance to pull the switch on this, the main site. Can't quite work out why, as I know I have all the failsafe I need in place. Just something seems to make me hesitate. Maybe tomorrow ...
I've also had a bit of success getting ChatGPT to help me automate some little things. If I write a reasonably tight spec that describes plainly what I would like to happen, it often gets there on a first go, and that is helping to automate little tasks so they get done and get done accurately and without errors.

Previous years are still on an archive page.
Goals
Twelve blog posts. Yes, many of them report on disasters recovered from, but this month I think that's OK.
Niggles
Hosting remains hard. So is keeping WithKnown Idno up to date now that it is being maintained regularly.
Final remarks
It's a lot of fun looking at what the BirdNET-Pi was up to while I slept though the dawn chorus, but it would be good to work out some way to summarise and record what's going on. I think a cumulative species graph would be one thing, and a detections per day by weeks. It would have to be automated, somehow. I've got enough manual-till-it-hurts stuff going on.

I very much regret that Russian spammers have made my comment system unusable. If you want to email me a comment, it is easy enough to find the address and I will be happy to do the needful behind the scenes. Webmentions remain available (for now).
