tone-nets.web.app doesn't have 4-way splitscreen multiplayer (if you know, you know) but it does now have drag-n-drop and emoji instruments! Send me your #midi file suggestions!

Have scientists worked out why when you do the laundry it doesn't stay done? This has got to break thermodynamics or perpetual energy or something because it just keeps coming back.

🎶 tone-nets.web.app is live! Load up a MIDI file and explore a 3D visualisation of the notes and their relationships while the music merrily plays away lighting up the graph as it goes. I'm in a tweaking mood, so get your feature requests in now! Implementation details in the 🧵

AN INCREDIBLE RESULT IN HACKNEY! 🎉 We have gone from 4 to 42 councillors! And now have overall control of the council led by our new Mayor of Hackney Zoë Garbett! 💚

Loved the R #visualisations of #music in this paper: www.nature.com/articles/s41... so I thought, "Can I (with the robot) convert this to a web app?". Anyway, turns out the #MonkeyIsland theme has exactly 1 transition from D2 > E5 in the whole track. Should I clean this up and publish?

Experimenting with this ink I found

In today's #EnglishPlaceNamesAreMadeUp: Yawl. As in#EnglishPlaceNamesAreMadeUp..

There's a new #webperf measurement API in the works! Check out this post looking at the work @jason-williams.co.uk and @jdapena.bsky.social have been putting into there Container Timing—available as an origin trail from Chrome 148 (rolling out next week). developer.chrome.com/blog/contain...

This is amazing who would have thought steamed hams would make such a perfect Magnus archives episode

#EnglishPlacesNamesAreMadeUp, part 372. I'm thinking of a day trip: what will I find there?

Blown away by @andremichelle.bsky.social's openDAW, which runs ENTIRELY in the browser! 🤯 opendaw.org So much thought and attention to detail went into this. And it's all Open Source too! github.com/andremichell... The web is AMAZING 🤩 #BTConf

This is what you get if you 4k AI #upscale the old Google #blobEmoji.

Looks like the @greenparty.org.uk have a strong chance of winning in Hackney with @zoegarbett.bsky.social and @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social, so I'm trying to make it stronger by getting my postal vote in now, joining the party, and telling all of you about it!

Crom laughs at your terms and conditions.

Ooh, I need to see if I can think up something here, but maybe you already have ideas to make concrete and contribute. HTML-in-Canvas opens up some very shiny possibilities.

Made a starter pack for the #CityJSLondon speakers (BlueSky seems to force the author to be in the starter pack though and I'm not speaknig so... 😬 just ignore my face there or point me to a speaker-maintained one!) go.bsky.app/SFknGEa

Heading to #CityJSLondon @cityjsconf.bsky.social Who else will be there? What's are your top session picks?

I'd love some feedback on a project. I've been building a lot of claw-like agents recently (mem, tools). I abstracted it into an API that works like Anthropic's Agent SDK but built on the back of Vercel's pluggable AI-sdk github.com/PaulKinlan/a... Does this work for you? What would you change?

Indeed, EU law *literally* protected Magyar from prosecution by Orbán, who wanted to prosecute him - but Magyar is an MEP, and the European Parliament refused to waive his immunity balkaninsight.com/2025/10/10/m...

It's a long road of progress that means we got to QR codes from passing things down as oral tradition.

1. The Xteink X4 is so cute 2. It's so cool you can just ask an LLM for a firmware feature 3. To flash the community firmware, you just go to xteink.dve.al and click flash, thanks to WebUSB It's so sad Firefox doesn't implement WebUSB. Better UX *and* better security than downloading an exe.

Needed more proof the age of personal software is here? I got this Xteink X4 pocket e-reader. I flashed it with open source firmware. Then vibecoded a backend running on @val.town that pulls `toread` tagged articles from @kipclip.com and converts them to epub ...

After almost twenty years on the platform, EFF is logging off of X. This isn’t a decision we made lightly, but it might be overdue. 🧵 (1/5) www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

I originally dismissed this as some developer making a joke. But, after watching her explain it and reading the blog-post, I'm stoked to try it, and I just love when my favorite actors turn out to be geeks too! benobi.one/posts/buildi... www.instagram.com/p/DWzNnqwD2Lu/

Calling all Astro.js developers. My rewilding charity @protect.earth has been trying to replace a horrible Squarespace site with an API powered data centric website. Need a few volunteers to get this over the line. Grab an issue if you can! 🙏🏼 github.com/protect-eart...

Ooh, neat! Another little project to implement on the reCAPTCHA client.

Just released heerich.js, a tiny voxel engine that renders 3D scenes to SVG ╬ Boolean ops ◮ Oblique & perspective 𝑥 Zero dependencies ◌ Pure vector output, infinite scaling Named after Erwin Heerich's geometric cardboard sculptures. meodai.github.io/heerich/ www.youtube.com/watch?v=jndl...

For whoever needs to hear this I'm the only Jewish person to lead a political party - third largest in the country. The Daily Mail have been & always will be my enemy - they historically supported fascists & continue to do so. I'll take no lectures from them on Antisemitism.

CSS is DOOMed! I've build DOOM in CSS and every wall, floor, barrel, and imp is a div, positioned in 3D space using CSS transforms. cssdoom.wtf Try it out! But... not every browser can handle it. This is taking the browser to its limit. Chrome has some issues. Safari too. Bugs will be filed.

To celebrate something-or-other, I created a retro CRT using only vanilla CSS! 📺 codepen.io/ivorjetski/p... No images. No JavaScript. No SASS. Fully turn-off-and-on-able! Also a documentary about the making of it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdNH... @CodePen #css #cssart #cssonly #frontend

I'm putting together a chrome://flag in canaries that enables the FedCM's Ambient UX in the URL bar. I've been using it for a week or so: it is beautiful and I think it will have arrive at an economic equilibrium. Here is the before / after, how to enable it and why we are working on it:

Gorgeous graphics and an accessible read!

What is is this? Oh.. This is just me playing responsive DOOM.css on my phone. Is it playable? Kind of. Does it stutter? Absolutely. Did I just play for hours? Yeah! Detail: The weapon and controls are using anchored positioning to the top of the status bar, because we don’t know how it will wrap.

Released 1.4.2 of the #reCAPTCHA #PHP client library with support for PHP 8.4 & 8.5. With 88 million installs so far, I think it's fair to say a few of you may have been waiting for that. github.com/google/recap...
