2026-06-24T08:36:39.059Z Jarema https://jarema.me/ This site is the personal playground and digital garden for Jarema. I write some blog posts, sometimes content about economics, coding, and occasionally I post some cats too. https://jarema.me/blog/2026/06/voru/ 2026-06-07T14:45:00.000Z 2026-06-07T14:45:00.000Z

Two exams down in two days, was running on spite. Boarded the metro instead of rotting in bed, put on a playlist to let the songs say what I couldn't, and let Hanoi go past the window. Ended up missing Võru.

If I know a person's location, that's enough for me to estimate distances in my head using timezones faster than Google Maps loads.

Hopped on random buses all afternoon, dropped near Hanoi's Ho Guom lake because why not. Brought a notebook, promised I wouldn't touch my phone but broke that promise instantly.

I had a short domain doing nothing, so I built a permashortlink system for my blog posts based on Base36. Did it using Next.js middleware and saw one YYMMDD mistake I definitely should have caught earlier.

After months of over-engineering my site with Next.js and fighting the framework, I finally migrated my personal site back to Astro. I wish I'd done it sooner.

I had to reinstall Fedora, so I documented the thing. This is the setup, the hardening, and everything I do to get it to a state I'm comfortable with.

An update to my go-to apps on my laptop and my phones.

Survived military training just to drag a souvenir flu into the New Year, currently rotting in bed and fighting for my life.

I'm kicking off 2026 with a Discord call and an open Obsidian window while being calm and sleepy.

Tunnen end sageli vales rollis, justkui poleks ma täielikult ei see ega teine. See vastuolu teeb mind rahutuks, aga samal ajal annab ka vabaduse mitte sobituda ühte kasti.

Tôi học kinh tế, nhưng ai cũng bảo tôi giống dân IT. Thực ra tôi thấy mình chẳng ăn khớp hoàn toàn với cả hai, và đó chính là cái "lệch" tôi muốn nói.

I study economics, but people say I look like IT. I don't really feel like either, and that's the mismatch I live in.

I do not, and never will use Chrome. Here's why.

This is my personal code of conduct. Nobody's forced to agree with it, but this is how I try to live. If you respect me, keep this in mind.

The obligatory first post of any blog - hello, world!

Sharing my list of go-to apps, idea inspired by Robb Knight.
