I make things with computers. Mainly software for a living, but also music, video and 3d stuff for fun. I play many instruments, all quite badly. These days I scratch my musical itch with #Ableton. Trying to learn #blender with an eye towards virtual film/animation, but that's a slow road!

When I'm not in a darkened room staring at screens, you will find me in a wood staring at trees.

🏳️‍🌈 🌳 💻 🎥 📚 🎼

@Ninji@wuffs.org I can’t decide if I want it more to be a running joke and they put it under every special, or, that’s it’s someone’s sincerely held belief that the pinnacle of gastronomy is roasted chicken, salad & chips.

@broadwaybabyto@zeroes.ca Someone told me once that the key to understanding the conservative/right/rich ideology is that it all stems from the idea that rich people are rich due to their virtues and that being rich is virtuous, and poor people are poor due to their failings and being poor is a failing. After that day to me, all govt policies suddenly make perfect sense as to why the performative cruelty is so important to those who propose and support them.

@solar_chase@mastodon.green @Nicovel0@mastodon.social You know it's got cheap because my landlord texted me yesterday to say he's sending a surveyor to assess the house for a solar battery install off his own back.

@jk 'Everyone wants to be Google' has been a incredible blight on the industry, and I think that's where a lot of these giant fumbles come from. The people in charge simply can't align with their users because deep down they long to be Google, even though it's literally impossible for them.

@mark_f_lynch @nske @davey_cakes I think it might be this that saves the day, that once "real economy" businesses who actually care about what they're spending money on, start to realise that LLMs simply don't work, and you'll end up with a critical mass of 'we tried it and it made us look like idiots' will building up.

@mikro2nd@indieweb.social @emilybache@sw-development-is.social Never thought of it this way before, but this explains my personal experience of just coming to it almost 2 decades into my career, and wondering why the hell we didn’t do tdd all along! We were trained in formal specification (SSADM and the like) at uni and then entered the workplace at the exact moment design became the enemy and wondering why we learnt all this stuff that no one seems to do.
