Chess players in Warsaw, in June 2022 for Pixel Heaven conference. (In the garden of Proces Kawki café) I did this watercolor for a Galerie Maeght show in Paris last February, based on a rough sketch in my sketchbook, and my memory of the scene, which touched me for many reasons.

My #SharkRF #m1ke arrived today! #ham #AmateurRadio

Hey @guy.dev! Happy New Year! How's it going with DMR and BrandMeister? Haven't had time to be on the air recently due to a lack of time and the annoyance of having to operate from a ground floor apartment. But I've ordered a new toy that should arrive tomorrow: www.sharkrf.com/products/m1ke/

Nice article in The Guardian about the story behind Prince of Persia's first making in 1989! 💾 A treat for me to see Broderbund co-founder Doug Carlston interviewed here- he's a great guy and was one of my first mentors. www.theguardian.com/culture/2026...

Full moon night in Hameln, Germany

Tonight, I'm gonna have myself a real good time I feel alive

Went to the Nürnberger Christmas Market. Bought a Nürnberger sausage.

I guess @rachelappel.bsky.social doesn’t want to be disturbed. :)

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now

"Azure was hit by the 'largest-ever' cloud-based distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack, originating from the #Aisuru #botnet and measuring 15.72 terabits per second (Tbps), according to #Microsoft." #Azure #DDoS #CyberAttack #CyberSecurity www.theregister.com/2025/11/17/b...

I'm amused. Exclamation mark.

RIP Rebecca Heineman @burgerbecky.bsky.social, game developer pioneer and legend. Grateful we got to chat last year at San Francisco GDC. It was much too short.

Hmm. Maybe it's time to buy a TEAC W-1200 (and an Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB while I'm at it). Yeah, in terms of raw quality, cassettes suck, but even though I haven't used any in decades, I always liked the format. Two words: mix tapes! #RetroAudio #HiFi #CompactCassette revox.com/us/blog/deta...

Noticed the shift in AI coverage lately? The hype’s fading, replaced by quiet worry about a bubble. But we've seen this before ... twice. In my @ndcconferences.com keynote, I explore what past AI hype cycles reveal about today’s boom. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5s_...

Just wanted to share my first ever 100% organic selfie!

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

I just heard a new term I'm going to be using in the future: Slopsplaining: When someone who doesn't know anything about a topic offers up unsolicited AI generated slop 'advice' to others.

Latest addition to my library. @citizenmatt.bsky.social, thanks for the recommendation!

It's Patch Tuesday and ASP.NET Core has a doozy, with a CVSS score of 9.9, our highest ever. Let's examine why. The bug enables http request smuggling, which on its own for ASP.NET Core would be nowhere near that high, but that's not how we rate things... * Thread- (1/7)

Tempting. Seriously considering getting one: "Looking at the internals, the Pi 500+ has a 2.4GHz quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 CPU and 16GB of LPDDR4X-4267 SDRAM inside it. It also has a 256GB M.2 SSD [...]." #RaspberryPi #KeyboardComputer www.neowin.net/news/raspber...

Honestly, I did expect this, given that the 1st edition prominently says, well, '1st edition' on the case. And trust me, if you're into retro gaming, this thing is as awesome as it sounds. #RetroGaming #GameBoy #GameBoyColor #Chromatic #ModRetro www.theverge.com/news/700725/...

Tried an ice cream that was a third durian. Tasted great! But someone could have warned me about durian burps...

After months of hard work, I’m proud to announce the React Certification I helped build with @certificates.dev is LIVE! 🎉 It’s been so rewarding to create something that helps devs grow their skills & prove what they know with confidence. certificates.dev/react More info 🧵👇

Dear Joint Photographic Experts Group, we all greatly appreciate what you've done for the web and digital photography. Nevertheless, please refrain from tagging our bridges like you did in Düsseldorf (51°15'05.5"N 6°46'17.6"E). Peace out #JPEG #graffiti #tag #tagging #Düsseldorf

I hope our #philosophy expert friends here can help @rachelappel.bsky.social and me out because we’re at a loss. We do recognize most of the names but have to admit we’re absolutely unfamiliar with the great philosophers Rezeption and Boardrooms.

🧵 I’ve reviewed conference talk submissions for +10 years. Here are my tips: (Side note, I've sinned against all these tips myself 🙃)

Oh yeah! Just missing the keyboard now - well, might also order two ARMSIDs - and soon I'll have another C64 made entirely of new parts. #RetroComputing #Commodore #Commodore64 #Ultimate64 #GideonsLogic

Ooh! New and shiny! 10m is the third band my license allows me to use and I haven't done anything with it yet. Maybe it's finally time for some DXing. @guy.dev, wondering if you've had any SSB calls with Germany on 10m. president-electronics.com/CB-Radio-Ham...
