At home in New Delhi, the pegboard beside my desk holds the small objects that make the space feel like mine. Among them is a 64 × 64 iDotMatrix display, connected to /pixel through an ESP32.

I spent today rewriting that connection and moving its storage to a public Git repository. The playground lets anyone post a drawing or leave me a note. It joins the latest submissions rotating on the display, so something made there will appear beside my desk at home.

Everything is deployed and finally looks fun. It has been quite an interesting project, and I am happy to share it with folks tomorrow.

On 20 August, I had a small soft-tissue cyst removed from my right knee. Today, I went back to have the dressing redone.

For the next 10 days, I need to change the dressing every third day. Once those 10 days are up, the stitches can finally be removed.

Until then, I should avoid moving around too much. The stitches are right around my knee, so I also need to avoid bending it.
