@lenain.info 🎂Happy birthday!

Tonight is gonna be Farendir Al-Katheer and Lujine Min-Mudaris wedding. And of course the PCs are invited and everything will be fine... Pathfinder Society scenario, played with Nimble rules.

J'ai commencé à lire Stormlight Archive. Ça fait deux jours, j'arrive pas à m'arrêter.

I updated from Vitest 2.x to 4.x and now I'm having failing tests. This is not because Vitest is bad, it's because it **too good**. Some tests now run in less than 1ms, which creates some weird race conditions when I was using Date.now() to "uniquely" identify things.

Week end craft. Je teste la construction de décors à base de vieille boîte, de papier à poncer et de gros sable.

J'ai le bouquin de STPo depuis Noël, et c'est seulement maintenant que je l'ai posé sur mon étagère et que je le vois de loin que je remarque ce qu'il représente. Well done.

Ça me trigger à chaque fois que je vais donner des vêtements mais tu mets pas une capacité maximum avec un range de 40 à 50 litres. Dans ce cas-là tu mets juste 50 L MAXIMUM... C'était ma minute OCD, merci de votre compréhension

Tonight's game is about to start in 3... 2... 1...!

Tellement d'intelligence et de punchlines dans cet épisode. S'il y a un épisode à écouter des Couilles sur la Table, c'est celui là. www.binge.audio/podcast/les-...

One cannot get too many dungeon tiles. And those ones are gonna me magnetized!

Faire ses courses et être obligé d'écouter "Le meilleur des années 80" en fond sonore... "Joujou à la casse", par Alain Chamfort. Le feminicide en musique.

Merci mais non merci Google Slide, ta suggestion n'est pas pertinente. #sexisme

Pictures of yesterday's game, players facing a possessed adventurer in the basement of a museum, spawning a horde of otherworldly minions. Heroes prevailed, but lost one of them. Zayne, the animated golem Monk (played by a player) got overwhelmed by the minion horde and couldn't prevail

Pour rappel, si vous voulez en savoir plus sur les secrets de fabrication de brefsearch.com et geeker avec moi sur le sujet, rendez-vous ce soir sur le stream de DevPropulsor à 19h

Si vous avez raté mon talk sur brefsearch.com au @devfestlyon.bsky.social vous pouvez retrouver la captation de la version du #devfest Nantes. m.youtube.com/watch?v=tVoh...

Table ready. Books ready. Cake ready. GM screen ready. Now I just need to wait for my players to arrive. Tonight is gonna be a Pathfinder Society one-shot, played with Nimble rules.

J'ai le plaisir d'être invité au prochain livestream de Modeste (DevPropulsor), le 4 décembre à 19h ! Je parlerai de brefsearch.com - comment j'ai indexé Bref pour retrouver n'importe quelle scène instantanément. Venez avec vos questions, je répondrai à tout en direct 💬 luma.com/73998jev

Working on some calendars to show the upcoming meetups we're gonna host. Last month was busy (3 meetups) and next month will be as well.

Was at the #utopiales festival last week (sf & fantasy con, in Nantes) There were workshops for kids as well. Here are some pictures of the cardboard tower my daughter and I created. We both had a lot of fun. cc @clemlatz.dev

Spent the day in React-land (not my usual habitat) The nomenclature is confusing. "Hooks" aren't hooks. "useCallback" isn't about callbacks. I wish they'd coined new terms instead of reusing existing ones with different meanings.

Just binged Andor S1 & S2 (yeah, I'm late) Acting and VFX are stellar. But the storytelling? The art of building tension through each episode and season? This show is a masterpiece. Every single episode: "Wait, that was an hour already? One more...". And I don't even like Star Wars 🤷

If you missed my talk at #DevFestNantes, I'll also be at @devfestlyon.bsky.social on November 28th. The talk is about how I built brefsearch.com to search through every scene of "Bref" to find the exact scene you're looking for (in 🇫🇷). Starring CLI tools, APIs, front-end, and a bit of AI magic ✨

Started a game of NoteQuest (solo dungeon exploring) with my 7yo daughter. It's supposed to be played only with pen and paper but when one has nice terrain and minis, one finds any excuse to use them.

I split the code of brefsearch.com into two repositories: - github.com/algolia/brefsearch contains the code of the one-page front-end, reading data from Algolia - github.com/algolia/brefsearch-data contains the data and the code to generate it

Just realized I have been paying ~70€/year from my registrar for a mailbox I wasn't even using (all mails where intercepted at the DNS MX level already).

"Special character", "Machine-readable". How am I supposed to know how a machine reads my passport? I can tell you what my name is, and how it is written on my passport, but I'm not a machine and I have no idea how one will read it... It's 2025. Machines can read a "é" without exploding.

#DevFestNantes reminded me how much I love sharing on stage 🎤 So I'm already working on the abstract of another talk Before I submit to CFPs, I'd love your honest feedback on the abstract. What resonates? What's missing?

And the last one is projects.pixelastic.com/landscapes/, a search into all the beautiful pictures posted on r/earthporn. Data dump available here: github.com/pixelastic/l...

The third one I never finished: a search into all the incredible items from @griffonssaddlebag.bsky.social The art and flavor are absolutely fantastic. I wanted to make them easier to search and discover, but I guess it's destined to remain unfinished now. gamemaster.pixelastic.com/items/

Second one to become officially "frozen" is gamemaster.pixelastic.com/maps/, a searchable list of 27k+ maps posted on r/dndmaps. Again, I can't keep it up to date because of restrictions on Reddit APIs, so it is now frozen in place. Data dump available here: github.com/pixelastic/m...

I am officially deprecating a few websites I built 3 years ago. They were all depending on me getting data from the Reddit API (and its little sister: pushshift) but as this has now been closed, it's time I officially end them. The first one is gamemaster.pixelastic.com/terrainbuild...

Merci à toutes les personnes qui sont venus à mon talk hier au #devfestnantes, et qui m'ont fait plein de retours positifs. Ça fait très plaisir ! Vous m'avez donné plein d'idées améliorer le site (compteur de vues automatique, crowdsourcing des sous-titres, etc).

Jeudi prochain, j'aurai la chance de présenter un de mes side projects au #DevFestNantes, à 17h50, en salle Jules Verne. > "Capitaine, capitaine, vous n'êtes pas le capitaine !" On y parlera série télé, CLI, YouTube, search et un (tout petit) peu AI.

Recently I've started playing #BaldursGate3 again, and I documented it at bg3.pixelastic.com. This will give you a glance at how I play videogames. My ADHD and creative mind means I hunt exploits, glitches and other edge cases for fun. No mods, latest patch.

@thealexlichter.com Here's the english version of my talk: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRH4... Safe travels!

@adrienjoly.com Hey, j'ai enfin pu écouter le SAV de la tech; en fait c'était ma version de l'app Spotify Android qui était trop vieille et le podcast passait pas. Mise à jour et c'est ok. En plus j'ai écouté un épisode où tu parlais de moi :) Well done, j'en écouterai d'autres

App of the day: subliminal github.com/Diaoul/subli... CLI command to automatically download subtitles for those .mp4 files you have that are definitely not copyrighted material that just so happen to sit on your hard drive. $ subliminal download -l fr ./Something - S01E14.mp4

🎵 Hey, Claude, don't make it bad Take a bad code and make it better Remember to let AI into your app Then you can start to make it better 🎶

Found the original plastic toy that inspired the D&D Rust Monster

Day two of secret project. I realize I bought a Micro HDMI adapter, but it's a Mini HDMI adapter I need.

Lucas has been one of the most incredible person to work with.

Hey les Nantais ! 👋 Envie de donner votre premier talk mais vous ne savez pas par où commencer ? #NantesJS organise un meetup spécial mercredi pour vous aider ! J'y serai pour vous aider et vous présenter ma méthode des "4S" (Subject, Story, Slides, Speaker) www.eventbrite.fr/e/billets-le...

Yeah \o/ See you all at DevFest Nantes 2025

Step 1 of secret project activated. Hmm, no step 1 was actually ordering the parts. Or was it researching for hours what those parts are? Or was it thinking about the project? Anyway, progress is being made!

Giving away some terrain pieces I no longer need.

@adrienjoly.com j'ai essayé d'écouter le SAV de la Tech sur Spotify, mais j'ai pas l'impression que ça marche, les épisodes ne se lancent pas (et j'ai pas de message d'erreur plus précis)

Submitted my fun little talk about brefsearch.com to DevFest Nantes, DevFest Lyon, BDX I/O, Codeurs en Seine and a few local meetups (RennesJS, HumanTalks Angers & Nantes). Pfew! We'll see how many are going to accept it, but after that batch I'll probably switch to another talk topic 😅
