  • Rocky Mountain High 🦃

    A beautiful sunrise view across fields and houses to a mountain ridge featuring Mount Sopris. A beautiful snow covered view across fields and a few houses to a mountain ridge and Mount Sopris.

    We had our first real Thanksgiving this year. An amazing two weeks with family in the Rocky Mountains—snow, games, and food. So much delicious food.

    Can’t wait to go back.

    A beautiful view of Mount Sopris after fresh snow. Clouds, a view across fields, a few houses, onto the mountain. A foot or more snow covering everything.

  • We found this deranged kangaroo toy today at Craft cafe in Basalt, CO.

    Amazing food if you’re in the area.

  • Great @coreint, @manton and @danielpunkass. Thanks.

    So many people equivocate re Apple:

    e.g. “They deserve to make something for building dev tools.”

    … and it just strikes me as a bullshit argument.

    That’s their cost of doing business. They do make money from it. They sell squillions of devices.

  • My in-laws were asking about the yellow buoys we can see out from the beach where we’re staying, which reminded me of a shark net explainer I drew a few years ago…

    A drawing of how shark nets work. The sketch shows a beach and buoys linked together with nets—untehtered from either the coastine or the sea floor.

  • “A cat riding a pig”

    A tabby cat dressed in a blue t-shirt and brown overalls rides a motorbike through the desserted streets of a post apocalytic town. It might be roughly the 1930s or 40s.

  • Some friends and I were having a laugh trying to generate images. This was supposed to be one of them in the gutter with a parrot on his shoulder.

    It’s just great.

  • I’ve been checking out Pijul, an interesting approach to version control. I really like it. At this stage it has limited tooling and I missed git-prompt.zsh, so I forked it and made pijul-prompt.zsh. Now things feel a little more like home.

  • The end of a great week of GUE DPV Cave training in Ginnie Springs with Kirill and my teammate Bori. The most fun class I’ve taken in ages.

  • An update, I have one “Ginnie Finger” today. Limestone is grindy. 😬

    We made it to 3700 feet in the Heinkel section of Devil’s in Ginnie today. I think the hardest part was dealing with a bouquet of empty stages and multiple scooters in the Eye for deco.

    One day to go… we dropped everything before the Heinkel and swam through today, but tomorrow we’re taking scooters through.

  • While I don’t have “Ginnie Fingers”… after a week of diving in High Springs I can no longer use Touch ID to unlock my Mac. 🫵😬

  • It’s a bloody long way from Brisbane to High Springs.
