Page: Feed: --- ## [How I Listen to Music](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/how-i-listen-to-music/) _2026-08-15 · Ó hAoḋa_ Introduction Several years ago now, I decided to stop using Spotify as my primary means of listening to music, for reasons which I may or may not expand on in a future blog post, but which primarily boil down to three key points: Privacy concerns: while the annual Spotify Wrapped analysis is a lot of fun, it troubles me that Spotify has this kind of data on the general population as a whole.… ## [The Books I Read in March, April, May, & June 2026](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/the-books-i-read-in-march-april-may-and-june-2026/) _2026-07-18 · Ó hAoḋa_ Introduction I didn’t get as much reading done in March as I had hoped, as I was laid low with sickness twice: the first time, with a case of strep throat that the doctor described rather bluntly as “very bad” — not exactly hope-inspiring words to hear from a medical professional — and I was prescribed a week of antibiotics; on the final day of this course of… ## [Cnoc Meaḋa](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/cnoc-meadha/) _2026-06-19 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [How I Use Bookmarks (the Physical Kind)](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/how-i-use-bookmarks-the-physical-kind/) _2026-04-22 · Ó hAoḋa_ Introduction When I created this blog, its purpose was primarily to give me a place to put my thoughts on issues that mattered to me but that were mind-numbingly boring to any other reasonable person, and in keeping with that original spirit, I want to talk today about how I use bookmarks (that is, the physical kind you put in books). I want to make it clear that I make no pretence of being… ## [Stockholm](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/stockholm/) _2026-04-18 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [Polska](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/polska/) _2026-04-15 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [The Books I Read in January & February 2026](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/the-books-i-read-in-january--february-2026/) _2026-03-15 · Ó hAoḋa_ Introduction Over the past few months, I have been making an effort to regain the rate of reading that I once had as a child, and in the process of doing so I thought that it might be nice to document the books that I complete each month so that I can keep a record of the books that I have read, reflect on my experience reading, and make recommendations about them. I try to broaden my horizons… ## [A Banner of Green, White, & Gold?](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/a-banner-of-green-white--gold/) _2025-10-23 · Ó hAoḋa_ The national flag of Ireland The Importance of Orange You probably don’t need me to tell you that the flag in the above image is the national flag of Ireland. You also probably don’t need me to tell you that the colours in that image are green, white, & orange. However, you may have heard people referring to the colours of the flag as “green, white, & gold” before, or… ## [Berlin](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/berlin/) _2025-10-10 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [Amsterdam](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/amsterdam/) _2025-09-25 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [Unlimited Mobile Internet, One V-SIM (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/G8xVZTe9an7c) _2025-09-24 · **Sponsored**_ Automatically switches across T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon; no throttling, no contract. ## [Groussherzogtum Lëtzebuerg](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/groussherzogtum-l%C3%ABtzebuerg/) _2025-09-24 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [La vie parisienne](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/la-vie-parisienne/) _2025-09-14 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [\`inutility\_scripts\`: Scripts That Don't Do Anything Useful](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/inutility_scripts-scripts-that-dont-do-anything-useful/) _2025-08-01 · Ó hAoḋa_ Introduction Roughly two years ago now, I created my utility\_scripts repository on GitHub, which contains all the scripts that I’ve written for use on my GNU/Linux laptop. These scripts are generally short, useful scripts, that make basic tasks on my computer easier, ranging from creating dynamic menus to select Bluetooth devices or WiFi networks to connect to, to listing the count of open… ## [The Perils of \`sudo vim\`](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/the-perils-of-sudo-vim/) _2025-07-11 · Ó hAoḋa_ Introduction On a UNIX-like system, one often has the need to edit a write-restricted file and thus to escalate one’s privileges to do so; the obvious approach that might initially occur to you is to use sudo vim or sudo $EDITOR to edit the file with superuser privileges, but this is inadvisable for a number of reasons, the majority of which boil down to the principle of least privilege :… ## [横浜](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/%E6%A8%AA%E6%B5%9C/) _2025-06-30 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [京都](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/%E4%BA%AC%E9%83%BD/) _2025-06-30 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [奈良県](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/%E5%A5%88%E8%89%AF%E7%9C%8C/) _2025-06-13 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [伊東市](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/%E4%BC%8A%E6%9D%B1%E5%B8%82/) _2025-06-13 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [鎌倉](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/%E9%8E%8C%E5%80%89/) _2025-06-11 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [Building an Affiliation Network for Blog Posts & Tags in Hugo](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/building-an-affiliation-network-for-blog-posts--tags-in-hugo/) _2025-06-10 · Ó hAoḋa_ An interactive affiliation network built for blog posts & tags on this website Introduction Hugo websites typically consist of blog posts, which are organised into taxonomies with the use of tags . In a typical Hugo website, these tags are listed for each blog post, and a tags page can be used to navigate the blog posts belonging to each tag (although I suspect that tagging blog posts is one of… ## [Unlimited Mobile Internet, One V-SIM (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/2TGEXXj1QhfO) _2025-06-10 · **Sponsored**_ Automatically switches across T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon; no throttling, no contract. ## [東京都](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/%E6%9D%B1%E4%BA%AC%E9%83%BD/) _2025-06-08 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [横浜中華街](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/%E6%A8%AA%E6%B5%9C%E4%B8%AD%E8%8F%AF%E8%A1%97/) _2025-06-08 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [¶, §, & 🔗](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/---/) _2025-04-09 · Ó hAoḋa_ Introduction Anchor links are hyperlinks that link to a different section within the current webpage or document, rather than to an external webpage, thus allowing for links to be shared to specific sections of a webpage and for a table of contents with clickable links to be created for a webpage. Anchor links are probably most commonly found in online technical documentation, but can be seen in… ## [What Does \`unlink\` Actually Do?](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/what-does-unlink-actually-do/) _2025-04-07 · Ó hAoḋa_ Although I now forget the context, a friend once sent me a snippet of shell code that he was using to remove symbolic links to files on his computer, using a shell command that I had never seen before: unlink . I, like him (and presumably like you if this is your first exposure to the command), assumed that this command is used to remove links to files on a UNIX-like system. This is quite an… ## [Na Mairḃ ⁊ na hEasláin](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/na-mairbh-agus-na-heaslain/) _2025-03-08 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [Tor as a Tool for Testing Fonts](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/tor-as-a-tool-for-testing-fonts/) _2025-02-13 · Ó hAoḋa_ A concern that may occur to you when you are designing a website is whether or not the font that you are using is “web-safe”, meaning that the user will be able to render it on their end when they load your webpage because they already have that font on their device. Web-safe fonts include the typical well-known fonts, like Times New Roman, Arial, etc. If you are using non-web-safe… ## [Buda, Óbuda, & Pest](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/buda-%C3%B3buda--pest/) _2025-02-10 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [CompSoc Galway CTF 2025 Pictures](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/compsoc-galway-ctf-2025-pictures/) _2025-02-03 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [To Whom (or Who?) It May Concern](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/to-whom-or-who-it-may-concern/) _2024-12-27 · Ó hAoḋa_ Introduction First of all, I’m not trying to tell you how to speak; how you speak is entirely up to yourself. Second of all, I’m not advising you on how to be pedantic and “correct” people who didn’t ask for correction over minor grammatical matters; if you understood their meaning, there’s no need to be rude in a sad attempt to one-up them. The purpose of this… ## [Nollaig 2024](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/nollaig-2024/) _2024-12-21 · Ó hAoḋa_ ## [One OS for your AI workforce (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/48z2LubLpFt1) _2024-12-20 · **Sponsored**_ Build, direct, and supervise an AI workforce from a single operating workspace. ## [Moaning About the Typography of Irish Text on Train Station Signs](https://ohaodha.ie/blog/moaning-about-the-typography-of-irish-text-on-train-station-signs/) _2024-11-12 · Ó hAoḋa_ If you’ve ever gotten an Iarnród Éireann train from anywhere west of Portarlington to Dublin, you’ll have passed through a railway station named “Sallins & Naas”. It gets its unusual name from the fact that despite being located in a small-ish town called Sallins, it is a short distance from & serves the much larger town of Naas, which is the largest town in County Kildare… ## [25 minutes to 11, Tuesday, the 15th of October 2024](https://ohaodha.ie/gallery/25-minutes-to-11-tuesday-the-15th-of-october-2024/) _2024-10-15 · Ó hAoḋa_
