Hamnet: men would rather write the greatest play of all time than go to therapy.

Moving the team to the “perverse bonbon” methodology just because I like the name

Bad idea Friday: I made an MCP server that lets Claude run applescripts on my computer.

Headcannon birth of the first order: Dedra Meero spends 3 years in prison on a work crew building parts for Death Star II. She becomes a crew (later floor) leader. After the Emperor dies she is released in a general amnesty for political prisoners—after all, she was jailed for being a rebel spy.

The fictional Terminator manifests in our reality as a roomba with a knife duct-taped on top, but still manages to wipe out humanity.

Inverse correlation? So everything is fine as is?

Back from travels.

I got to play this and I’m pleased to report that your game character appears to shoot enemies with, what else, finger guns.

New Disney princess just dropped

Just don’t lose in the play-in game.

Ending the season on a lane violation on an otherwise tie-up made free throw — just heartbreaking for those kids.

In our benighted times, competence has a very strong liberal bias.

The acronym to learn is EDI — electronic data interchange. This is a 70s technology where you hand an agency a file of a particular (binary) format that says “send money from here to there”. These files were sent via X.100 networks, direct dial up, later email and ftp.

Technical fouls keeping Virginia alive

The SNL special is weird, good weird, in a Michael O’Donoghue kind of way.

Two shots later, let’s stop play and reconsider the foul we didn’t call

We doing Carolina/duke on this app? @ncbags.bsky.social you here?

It was not different. But this year!

Ludicrous sunset on the Bolinas ridge. The ocean looks like mercury and the farallons look like shark fins.

Can’t see a full block away. Hi @karlthefog.bsky.social

Age yourself with your first computer.

“Thank you for making a simple door very happy”

I have a brilliant plan, all I need is: - the copyright to everything - all the money in the world

My kid took C++ at the community college last semester and complained about having to do null checks. Now he’s the one who complains.

How was Austin Reeves not the most hated player on Duke

My daughter liked the Sirius Black fireplace thing so much she made one of me

Waiting for the time travel movie where they go into the past and are suddenly floating in space because the earth was in a different spot in its orbit at their arrival time I guess that sucks as a movie

If you’re still looking for an Xmas gift for me, I suddenly need one of these

High on my “I wish this was true” 2024 scorecard

Kicking off the holiday hacking with my Apple //e gpu project! Let’s get the RP 2350 onto an Apple // peripheral card. I picked this Pimironi board because it looks like a classic gpu chip.

Anti-jetlag exercise. Poppy in the redwoods.

How jet lagged am I? I’m at “cracking the eggs into the sink and throwing the shells into the bowl” levels of jet lagged.

Europe’s nice and all, but home is hard to beat.

Holiday hacking underway. Following the blog post from @cyrilzakka.bsky.social I'm trying to read data from a Colmi R02. Let's see how this goes! The post is here: huggingface.co/blog/cyrilza...

Dishes are done. Tryptophan-driven hacking getting started.

well these pots ain't gon shake themselves

Clever way to ask “where did you go to college”

I dreamed a dream of Rome. Yes, that one! For some reason it was mostly medium shots like a Netflix show. Everything looked super mid budget. The movie maintained the mystery of who the main character was far too long, considering the marketing and PR spoiled it a year ago. It’s dumb. Go see it.

It’s getting to the end of the year and I’ve listened to no new music. What are your picks for best of 2024?

My phone is giving me scary dire flash flood warnings and I’m not sure if it’s for where I live, where my phone’s area code is, or where I currently am. So, great job everybody.

It’s like tinkerbell, but instead of clapping you pay
