My ballerina isn't quite as graceful as she could be yet 😂. More like nightmare fuel 🤣

To ‘ultra-crepidate’ (19th century) is to lecture others on subjects you know very little about.

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

@jetbrains.com Are there any plans to add @ and # to add context to Junie. It's a bit of a pain clicking on that plus sign. Do you know if it can use MCPs yet?

Have been playing with @n8n.io to automate some of my wife's workflow for making merch graphics. Very early days, but it's pretty amazing

Arg, my facebook hacked in some way (I don't think it was facebook account itself). It added some fake instagram account and got my account banned. It says to log onto instagram to appeal, which I can't do because it wasn't me that created it. Seems to be no way to appeal otherwise. Frustrating!

Created some new screenshots to show what you'll be getting when buying Kenney Game Assets All-in-1. It's nearly impossible for me to show everything... there's simply too much content. ✨

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

Wow, my wife got a takedown notice within days of uploading a campervan design to a t-shirt site (no VW name or logo). Those VW guys are on the ball. Definitely AI being used.
