  I love that every time I step outside I discover something new! today it was (what I believe to be) a Spotted Red Resin Bee.

Submitted to iNaturalist where hopefully some folks can confirm what type of bee it is ☺️ #iNaturalist #bees #insects

  So it's not a great idea to do some music discovery when I'm tired, I thought I found some bangers last night, and when I went to look up the tracks today I find out the whole thing was A fucking I 🙃 Music videos and all. I've been had. Thankfully still found _plenty_ of human-made bangers 💜

  This is an awesome site! It helps visualize where shadows fall at any time of day, any place on earth. https://shademap.app/ I think this will be a very useful tool for when we start looking to move to Northern Sweden - as we're going to need to make those daylight hours count! 🪴

  I figured this lil weekly planner project could be a cool time to learn/test that new Temporal date system. How lucky am I that @Wilto wrote an article all about it over on @piccalilli 🤩 https://piccalil.li/blog/date-is-out-and-temporal-is-in/

  Desperately needed to install this Peacock extension today, as I find myself with three different projects open and no way to distinguish between them when quick switching with mission control 🦚 https://github.com/johnpapa/vscode-peacock

  Some progress on this weekends web dev project, I'm making a little advent calendar generator ☺️ So far: - Manged to randomize values into the cells, learning about the Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm in the process - Ended up hand coding the SVG to get it setup right - Good groundwork for things to come, I think #CSS #HTML #JS #SVG

  Now with the ability to drag & drop images 🥳 Here's a quick test with one I found on Unsplash. So far it's just HTML, CSS, JS, and SVG. Once I have the SVG elements syncing across sheets (and different layouts, including the option to manually place) I'll add IndexedDB for some data persistence. #HTML #CSS #JS
