There's something hilarious about French written out literally. What a great language to pick up.

After a decade at Cloudinary, I am looking work. I'm a web developer who's done a lot of devrel, too. I'm good at the front of the front end, great at browsers and standards and deeply understanding and explaining technical topics, and the stem of my T-shaped skills is: "images, on the internet".

AI spoiled the word "honest" for me.

The existence of real estate implies the existence of unreal estate.

Please welcome to the stage: MonoLisa Version 3 It took quite a while, but we think it was worth the wait. MonoLisa v3 now consists of two subfamilies: the monospaced ‘MonoLisa Code’ and the proportional ‘MonoLisa Text’. In addition, we have added new features and languages.

Owls are scary to other birds.

Customize your coding experience: Make use of MonoLisa’s stylistic sets and character variants to turn it into your perfect coding font. #codingfont #typedesign #stylisticsets

Didn't get the job I was deeply hoping for, unfortunately. Need a remote TypeScript senior/staff-level position as soon as possible.

wow — the preprint host, arxiv, is banning authors for a year if they submit papers with hallucinated citations 🤖

Hey! I am open for contract or full-time work as a full-stack developer. I've worked on industrial software, real estate tech, and a visual website builder. I specialize in design systems, a11y, and UX. Previously maintained PostCSS, Rollup, and SVGO. Currently building weareonhire! on Open Social

My favorite way in Finnish to say some topic is not interesting - "Kiviäkin kiinnostaa." That translates as "Even stones are interested".

Welp it's official, I'm on the hunt for my next role. I learned a lot in the past 8 months, and I'm ready to get back out there for my next role. If you're looking for someone for devrel/devrel-adjacent roles, I got over a decade of experience in developer relations and ready help your team!

Why don't we call prompts as spells? That sounds more wizardry.

What's your useless superpower? Mine is silencing babies by looking into their eyes.

I know we're only about halfway of this year, but I think it's safe to say Karnivool's In Verses is my rock album of the year. So good! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Verses

I wrote a short book to support working with my students doing their theses. The main purpose of the book is to help them develop a sustainable process for writing. It's not the most exhaustive one but I believe it still might be useful to some. learnscientificwriting.com

I am become factory, the producer of softwares.

GitHub's assimilation is complete.

I have to say one of the better ways to upgrade your audio setup is to buy a subwoofer. I bought a used Genelec 5040A to pair with my old 6010As (tiny monitors) and it brought the whole system alive. It's adding depth even to music that's not so bass heavy. It's difficult to go wrong with Genelec.

Keep going and commit.

We have one cool word in Finnish I don't know in other languages. It's "amerikantemppu" (a trick of America) which roughly translated means something that looks difficult to accomplish but in reality is very simple. This word somehow made it from American movies to everyday language.

It's very funny English doesn't have a word for Winter that comes back even though it looks like Spring for a while. In Finnish we call that "takatalvi" (literally Back Winter).

How well does "The Mythical Man-Month" hold up in the era of AI supported software development?

Sheep as a form of commentary on modern art.

Stratovarius' Black Diamond is apparently a song about the cat of Timo Kotipelto. Now it all makes sense.

I've been sketching out the program for this year's #FutureFrontend conference (8-9.6, Dipoli, Espoo, Finland) and it looks like we'll have a good range of design and development topics. To understand where the space is headed, join us at the conference. futurefrontend.com

Time to gain some Winter weight.
