A drummer among rockstar developers.
Every 18 months or so there is a new Android phone with a keyboard on kickstarter but they all seem lacking. This one seems to check all the boxes. #android #blackberry

This years NYC primary election ballot will have rank choice voting for the mayor and a sudoku puzzle for picking city council members. #nycelections
This is just a rebranded ADOX film. But still cool that people who started with digital are learning to shoot film.

Amazing article from Bellingcat on LLMs being able to identify landmarks in photos to determine location. If you've played GeoGuessr some of the techniques will sound familiar. #LLM #AI #GeoGuessr

There is a fusion record broken every few weeks and this story is being drowned out by other news. #greenenergy #fusion
Johnny Marr should do a Smiths reunion tour without a vocalist and just let the audience sing all the songs while he plays. #GenX #TheSmiths
The IRS direct file system uses node, SpringBoot, Docker, Grafana, python and shell scripts. There are microservices. Looks like it targets openstack. It's a fully modern system that is indistinguishable from what you would see built by any modern dev team. #irsdirectfile
Someone made a digital version of the Holga. #holga #photography

Looks like an EV version of the Piaggio Ape-these were (and might still be) ubiquitous in Italy. I've seen them hauling everything from baskets of fresh produce to piles of bricks and tile. #electricvehicle #fiat

I went to the pet store and bought litter and the clerk asked if I needed a receipt so I responded "yes, please, I need my cat to put a paw print on it to acknowledge that she received new litter"
They handed a receipt to me. I looked that them and said "I was actually kidding, I don't need my cat's approval." They laughed saying "I'm so sorry! I didn't realize you were joking!"
And that's the danger of having a perfect Troy McClure deadpan delivery.
