Testing using GitHub's Spec Kit to create a spec for a small project I'm working on.

As part of this it created some test content (basically markdown files with text and optional video links).

Interesting choice of test video there Claude...

Side-by-side releases are so much better than they used to be, and yet I still feel a pang of fear when I decide to give .NET Preview releases 'a go' on my main dev machine 🤦

I've been using Bento for a few years now and really like it.

It has power when you need it, and does the basics really well (Jesse's added some nice touches, like automatically identifying spam accounts, and batching broadcasts to help deliverability)

I noticed that too. Grabbed a quick photo while making the kids' lunch!

Whilst my US friends celebrate thanksgiving, here I am trying to hunt down a memory leak… 😔

Hey @trekranks.bsky.social, just a heads up, I've been wondering when the next week would drop, only to realise I'd missed 6 episodes...

Looks like the tricorder transmissions feed stopped updating?

Found the dedicated TrekRanks feed now but just in case others have the same problem...

Anyone else remember the Amiga game Operation Stealth?

No idea why this just came to me, I have vivid memories of constantly switching floppy disks as it moved between scenes.

Don't think I ever got much further than the early airport scene honestly…

I followed @robconery.com's suggestions here: bsky.app/profile/robc...

The key with TweetDelete (which I missed at first) is it can delete everything if you give it a Twitter export to work with.

It then deletes in batches (takes a while) in the background.

Spent a glorious day walking in the footsteps of William Wordsworth at Grasmere.

Found myself in reflective mood walking around the dimly lit cottage he once called home.

"Plain living, and high thinking" indeed.

Snapped this photo of the mere from which the village takes its name.
