Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Slowly coming to terms with summer being over 🍂🍁🌦️

Experimenting with Claude Code and some FIT files to try and map out some of my workout data. Pretty neat what a couple of fairly well crafted prompts can churn out

Today, my research group @ Georgia Tech released a paper on vulnerabilities in Tile --- the second largest device finding network after Apple's AirTags. You can read about it in Wired, reporting by @kimzetter.bsky.social! www.wired.com/story/tile-t...

Another decent #AppleEvent. Although still can't believe AirPods Max are 5 years old now, with no real new release. Sorry but USB-C and new colours doesn't count 😆

Accurate representation of me with social media

Teach a robot to fish and soon you won't remember how to.

Sights of summer trickling in. Another scorcher of a day ahead in April, hoping this means we’ve got a packed summer of this weather! This is a picture from last nights ride in the glorious West Yorkshire hills 🌞

Morning Bluesky. China has just raised tariffs on US goods to 125%, matching the US tariff inc. Who blinks first?

Post a movie from the year you turned 18

The big yellow object in the Sky, really is a pleasant sight to see ☀️ 🌞

Men are facing a loneliness epidemic. So why do Dems want to stop group chats where guys bond over shared military interests? By Ross Douthat

Just finished my first session at Solo60 in Shoreditch. What a cool concept. Essential book a solo gym for a period of time! Really convenient and private 👍 what a great idea!

So much talk about AI coding tools, vibe coding, AI agents So many complaints of these tools “breaking down” above some complexity / context length So little - basically no - talk about software architecture that makes for code devs can easily maintain/evolve. Or AI tools!

Aaaand we’re back in business! Dusted off the old ClusterHAT 2.3 and been tinkering with some Homelabby SOC this evening. Also migrated my PiHole instance to it as a first ditch play! It’s also hooked up to a Tapo energy monitoring plug 🤓. Super cool!

Morning Bluesky. Welcome to the Age of De-evolution.

The start… of the decluttering… Newsletters rapidly get out of hand!

Well this is disappointing www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hang on… is that Blue Sky?

It’s just astonishing that this is even considered a way to boost the economy. Really clutching at straws…

I am well a truly an Impossibrew convert. It tastes great! For those that don’t know / haven’t tried it yet. It’s an alcohol free beer (ale, which is the one I prefer) that gives you a nice buzz! I’d highly recommend giving it a punt. Lovely stuff!

The 90s felt like the golden age of retail

This may be the absolute norm for most. But today, I wrote some code, had it reviewed by my team, and shipped to production… all in ONE day

Question: Creme eggs in the fridge? Yay or Nay? I’m in a Yay camp!

It’s getting out of hand. But boy do I LOVE it!

Oh it’s a frosty morning here!

Right that’s in. No more #newskies feed… Honestly it’s an eye opening feed, it’s mental what people choose to share as their first post. You literally see it all…

Embarrassingly I can't share my music replay / review, thats a best kept trade secret. But I can share my 2024 review! jamesmillner.dev/blog/2024/12... @mxb.dev thanks for the inspo!

Having a bit of a sort out / reflect this evening on 2024. We've rounded out 2024 by moving house (albeit, not that far) which will marks officially a good bye to birchy and no more birch updates. A beloved tree of 7.5 years, farewell dear silver birch. Live long and prosper!!

Post a gif of your comfort show.

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

What GIF pops up when you type your name?

I don’t normally follow up on Birchy so fast, however it snowed over in Huddersfield over night and now he’s got a nice cold jacket on! #birchupdate

Poor Birchy is looking very naked this time of year. I’m going to miss this birch when we move
