In between work on a new app, I submitted a an update to SoloTime that addresses some bugs and makes invoices with no projects more sensible #indiedev #business #b2b #swiftui

I’m making a superspeed racing game for @revenuecat.com #shipaton (pictured) I’ll try and get a TestFlight out as Shipaton opens. If you’d like to be on that and help test, fill in this magic form: forms.gle/smYJyQgAUmkM... #gamedev #buildinpublic #indiedev

I'm not sure what this is but the colour is amazing. #bloomscrolling #flowers #gardening #nature #photography

Hmm. Maybe this is more #BlueskyPhilosophy

Annoyingly this is neater than my handwriting. A teacher at school once described pages I wrote as "it's as if a spider with diarrhoea had wandered across the page" 🕷️💩

Popped out to check how the plants are doing in the heat. Not too bad at the moment and I have my first wild carrot also starting to flower. #gardening #bloomscrolling #flowers #nature #photography

Under a Binface government, anyone who doesn’t accept human-made climate change as fact will be sent back to school, from Year 1 right the way to A Levels, to see if anything goes in the second time round. #VoteBinface

Preview of CALDERA, which is ironically volcanic! Wait, is that ironic? Someone call Alanis. #shipaton #gamedev #buildinpublic

The potato vine has started to flower in the back garden. We're not growing it in full sun (north facing garden) so it's been a bit slow but since planting it last August it is now twice the size so hopefully it'll keep on climbing 🤞 #gardening #bloomscrolling #flowers #silentsunday #plants

Disappointing to see the UK press making too much of the post match interviews done in the heat of the moment last night. We won, celebrate it and move on…🍻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 #england #football

@slowwaysuk.bsky.social route Hebden Bridge to Halifax. Beautiful but too hot for the climb in the middle, although the views were a good reward! Included the Rochdale Canal. #Stile #UKCanals #Yorkshire #SocialHistory

Bee on a drumstick allium out in the baking sun in the front garden. #bloomscrolling #flowers #bees #nature #gardening #photography #alliumyum

You can't have too many purple flowers in my books (at least that's what the bees tell me 🐝). Some salvia action from the front garden. #gardening #bloomscrolling #nature #flowers #saturdaysalvia

Having a coffee in the shade on a bench next to my shed and there is a welcome breeze. It's forecast to get up to 30C here again today, so taking advantage while I can. #shedlife #coffee #heatwave

“AI Costs More Than The People It Replaced” - this and more in this interesting article by Forbes: www.forbes.com/sites/jemmag... #ai #dev #technology

My veterinarian's logo is actually a wizard doing magic on a horse, a goat, and a monkey. I wonder if this is going to be a issue.

Some colours from the back garden for your timeline. All of these grown from seed. No gardening today. Far too hot 🥵 #gardening #flowers #bloomscrolling #wildflowers #photography #nature

Testing out jumps, tunnels and sneaky shortcuts. Oh and also a proper start/finish line. #shipaton #gamedev #buildinpublic

Morning fog over Morecambe Bay this morning. A foghorn was sounding somewhere. The water was so calm, it was like a mirror. #morecambebay #weather #heatwave #phonepics

I spent a bit of time this morning on the next SoloTime update. Amongst other things I've simplified the invoice so that if you don't have any project tasks with time booked against them it'll just show a single line against a project, rather than a "general" task. #indiedev #business #B2B

Sounds like everyone needs to change their instagram profile pic to Zuckerberg. What a sh!tshow AI image generation is. #AI www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I spent hours today not getting some new code working. Keeps me off the streets I guess. #indiedev

This red admiral butterfly was resting in the sun earlier on the choisya. I've seen a few different ones today around the garden but wasn't quick enough to grab pics of all of them. Work got in the way as well 😀 #bloomscrolling #gardening #nature #butterfly #plants #photography

The abundant alyssum in the back garden is proving popular with the hover flies. #nature #insects #pollinators #flowers #bloomscrolling #gardening

Despite the self inflicted lack of sleep from watching the England game this morning, I’ve managed to catch up and got quite a lot of work done. Although I have to admit I’m starting to feel it now 🥱

More moors. 💚 Look at the light!

New pin has dropped!

Took a break from the keyboard to have a cold drink in the evening sun. Apple juice, fizzy water and frozen blueberries 🍎💧🫐

A very fresh-looking comma butterfly in my garden. The first one I've seen this year. #butterflies #nature #wildlife

The flowers are looking a lot fresher today than I feel after watching the football live this morning 😂 This new purple one is a corn cockle, also called "bastard Nigella" which sounds a bit harsh (although it is poisonous ☠️). #bloomscrolling #flowers #photography #nature #gardening

Come on England! I hope I can stay awake 👁️
