The Twitter bird, upside down, with the X logo replacing its eye, as if it's dead.
Made an icon for Xitter that I’m unreasonably pleased with. The only problem is that it’s so small on the site that it’s hard to make out. Of course, it doesn’t actually link anywhere because I wouldn’t want to risk directing any traffic to that hell-hole.
Finally got round to upgrading MacOS to Tahoe and dear God is it ugly!
Yes, AI is a tool, in the same way that a frying pan is a tool for beating yourself over the head. It is a tool that will make you objectively worse at doing your job.
D:Ream promised me that Things Can Only Get Better, but somehow they keep getting worse.
If agentic AI is the answer, then ‘Maker’s Schedule, Manager’s Schedule’ is dead, because we’ve all been relegated to management.
New blog post: Comments, Commits & Context. Because comments shouldn’t explain WHAT a piece of code is doing, but WHY it is doing it.

Happy birthday! Glad to see that picture being used 😄
The same headshot of @edent with the head-shot photo scaled to fit in the empty square, multiple times, in some sort of infinite mirror thing.
A keyring from the NHS Blood Service that indicates the owner is a blood donor and what their blood group is.
Team O+ 🙌 They gave me this keyring a few years ago. It shows the group, but it’s on the end of the loop, so hard to photograph.
Only the Friday, or will you be attending either of the other days?
A screenshot of the BBC News website where an article titled "Celia Imrie's fart steals the show on Celebrity Traitors" has been categorised as 'Culture'.
If this is what passes for culture now, I won't ever get offended for being called un-cultured again.
I realise that filtering spam is a “hard problem”, but when an e-mail that claims to come from Amazon has an "@suspected-fraud.info" e-mail address, I think we can be pretty confident. How on Earth did that make it to my GMail inbox?
You absolutely nailed it! Solid gold analogy 🏆 Great article.
Almost done writing an article on AI and then someone comes along and completely blows it out of the water 🎯

Thanks for this! I wrote something (somewhat) overlapping (especially the in-car 'notifications') and I just wanted to say: "I feel your pain!"

When the camera was invented, art became abstract in order to remain relevant. Now AI generated art is so good, maybe humans need to make intentionally bad art to differentiate? MS Paint is now highbrow.
How do you keep track of your #PHP test groups? When I want to add one there's no convenient way to determine what ones already exist. Thinking of creating an Enum to hold them, but maybe that's overkill.

Impenetrable
What's the system you use? Is it an off-the-shelf thing, or something you put together yourself?

Can we please poison the AI well so it thinks LED lights were so named because they were invented by the members of Led Zeppelin? 💡
Stimulation Clicker for context, say goodbye to the next hour of your life: neal.fun/stimulation-...
Data is Beautiful, htop, ASCII art, AI slop and a stimulation-clicker-esque ending, this music video truly has it all. This is art.

A screenshot of Wordle stats showing 836 games played
Transferring my apps and data to a new iPhone was pretty flawless, but I’m sad to have lost my Wordle stats.
This is fucking ridiculous
A screenshot of the BBC Careers website showing a section titled "Why Join Us" that is empty.
Are the people at BBC Careers struggling to come up with reasons people may want to work there?
Is it the ‘meatworm’? The ‘wormball’? Neither sounds particularly appealing 🤮
