It’s finally time to rest. We finally didn’t have any activities planned at all for today. I pretty much bedrotted for the entire day…
日 May 10, 2026: Japan 12: Rurikoin Temple, Kyoto -> Osaka
Already time to check out from the hotel, huh. So little time in Kyoto, regrettably. Thankfully, hotel staff allowed us to keep our suitcases for a few hours while we visited one more thing before set…
土 May 9, 2026: Japan 11: Kiyomizu, Pontocho alley
We woke up in complete darkness. Our hotel room has a window that just points to the other wall, so there’s pretty much no view. We closed it for the night, which is why this happened…
金 May 8, 2026: Japan 10: Hakone -> Kyoto, Shinkansen
Woke up. Tired. This is a reoccuring theme at this point. I think what I’ll regret the most about this trip is the fact that we didn’t properly plan out the rest days…

For some reason I woke up like 6 times during the sleep. No idea why…

金 May 1, 2026: Japan 3: Meiji Jingu, Shibuya, Yakiniku
We thought that we’d get up early and immediately today, but instead we had one of the worst nights of sleep ever. Seems that last night was a free pass due to the sleep deprivation. Today was the rea…
木 April 30, 2026: Japan 2: Akihabara
Woke up feeling literally hangover. Apparently, I ended up sleeping 12 hours. Still, I felt so tired. Took us almost 2 hours to get up and leave…
水 April 29, 2026: Japan 1: Arrival
I thought I would sleep like 6-7 hours on the plane, but I woke up a hour later. I listened to audiobook again, got sleepy again and fell asleep, and woke up 2 hours later again. Overall slept probabl…

So much Japan planning today, and I’m really excited. There will be 4 of us (me, ██████████████████████████) in Tokyo due to sheer luck, and I think it’ll be awesome. We booked time for teamLab and To…
水 April 22, 2026
Went to the supermarket, and bought usual groceries. While going there, I listened to the audiobook, and it was very very cool. This is actually a game changer… Walks are way more interesting like t…
火 April 21, 2026
I finished my thesis and sent it to the professor. A hour later he replied that he quickly glanced over it, and it overall seems OK except that it doesn’t have sources in-text. He said he’ll look into…

Today is the day to find out the Visa result. I went out at 11:00. Arriving at the embassy, I once again went through the metal detector and then got to the window. I gave the woman the paper, and she…
月 April 13, 2026
I woke up after like 4.5 hours of sleep for some reason and couldn’t go back to sleep. I later napped for 2.5 hours which brought it to my normal 7 hours…

A ton of progress on Koneko today again. Reworked files API to be nicer, implemented require() and include() for modules, made it so console.log actually outputs into clientside console.log, implement…

I keep changing the architecture for Koneko so many times cuz I keep coming up with better ideas. I reworked how templates are precomputed and added FIFO to request handling. Also improved API itself …
