I don’t understand football deeply, but it seems like England keep having problems because a player is sitting on the ground and complaining instead of getting on with things.
Is this just the most British way of playing?
I was pretty chuffed that I could not only point at a moving light in the sky and correctly state that it was the ISS, but I could also, within seconds of thinking about it, correctly state where on earth it was flying over!
Yes. This is what I get proud about!
New Seal of Solitomb trailer! 🎉
Really happy with how it turned out 😇
If this looks interesting to you, you'll find more about the game on Steam:
Reminder: Turing completeness is not always good.
A Turing-complete configuration DSL is not something cool: it's an RCE waiting to happen.
Oooh! I did good at this today!!

This is such a fun little … retro tennis RPG? Played through it in a few days. Like Tom, I got really invested in it. It’s a really fun little game.
A proper launch post incoming, but I'm done - the documentation site is up and the files are on Codeberg. QJERG is in the wild now! 😁
This is my #Javascript game engine for making #retro style chunky #pixel games. It'll probably always be a WIP - scaling, rotating, and raycasting is still to come for a start - but it's totally usable in it's current state.
Genuinely hope at least one person at least starts making an at least half baked idea of a game in this thing! 🤞
An excellent example of this comedy genre. Well played.
I appreciate the humour of Rachel Reeves’ “talking to a bin” Tweet. But it was the official announcement that piqued my interest:
“I will accept Nigel Farage's request to be appointed Steward and Bailiff of the Manor of Northstead.”
You what now?? …
It turns out you can’t resign as an MP. But you can be disqualified from being one if you are appointed to an "office of profit under The Crown”.
So they keep a few fake positions available that they can appoint MPs to who don’t want to be MPs any more.
Bonkers country.

I can’t help thinking that if you’re a tech person then you are probably in the privileged position of understanding the link between AI use and technology prices right now.
If you want more tokens and better models, this is what happens.
AI use was a vote for this.
I actually hate that I had to write this. But really it’s just too much right now and it’s making ME stressed.
I have the greatest respect and love and admiration for teachers and school employees. They are true heroes.
But please can you stop making having a school child such immensely hard work?
I have a job, and it’s not reading all the emails and taking random time out several times a week to be present at events.
It’s relentless right now & I’m exhausted.
Also, many smart kids are neurodivergent, struggle with executive function and need help with planning and prioritisation. Please learn this!!
I swear that somehow my kids have wired every “play” button on my phone - YouTube, Podcast, etc - to send them a notification. Because pressing play seems to summon them with their “Daaaaaddd???” EVERY time!
(Of course, like everything, this does not work when I actually DO want to summon them)
My daughter gets me to help with practicing her taekwondo moves because I forget what they are.
So… of course… we made a web page for that!
This looks like a cool/fun Git “course” with an excellent “Gitopedia” reference/glossary too:
I am tired of the lack of humanity in tech.
I am also tired of the lack of humanity in humans.
Oh gosh, I’m in a right old grumpy grump this last 24 hours. I’m sorry.😔
See also “health centres” that don’t have cycle parking!!
The crazy thing about not-sitting being good for health is that healthcare places are the WORST! Sure, many (maybe most) people waiting for health care need to sit.
But they expect you to sit for hours waiting. They come and take your vitals but there’s zero encouragement to move around.
