I’m really grateful to work at a place like GitHub where accessiblity is really taken seriously. But, industry-wide, I feel like we haven’t seen as much care and dedication to accessibility historically. Anecdotally, I’ve heard countless developers ask the question, “how do I get my bosses to care about...

Looking out at Millwall Inner Dock, 24 September 2026 A hectic week that, looking back, felt much longer than it was. Autumn is coming, making itself felt on Monday on my walk down to the train station; I kept swapping the hand I was using to carry a bag, burying the other one in a trouser pocket to keep warm. This...

It started with an urn for living gone wrong, the clay kiltering off center, resisting my every effort to force it back into shape. The harder I pushed to control it, the more it took on a life of its own, folding like flesh, bending like mind. I pushed and despaired, pushed and despaired, until, exhausted and...

Hello, RSS reader! 👋 This post has some bespoke art direction you’ll only see if you view it directly. No hard feelings if you prefer to read here, I just wanted you to know! ✌️ It’s 2026, and I’m writing this post on a MacBook Air I bought in 2011. Why? It still works, for one. No dead pixels, no dents or dings in...

A support ticket can contain a user’s name, a screenshot of an application, a configuration export, or notes from an incident. Copying the ticket into an AI assistant to get a quick summary may feel like routine support work. It also sends the client’s information to another service. The person who opened the ticket...

Oh boy it's October, you know what that means? You guessed it, time to do some thing every day of the month based on a prompt! Will you gain anything from it? Maybe? Will anyone look at it for more than 1 second before swiping away? No! Will it take up more time than you expected and will have to drop out after a...

My last several birding outings have been with a single objective: to spot a photograph a Belted Kingfisher. So when I leave without having spotted nor photographed one, I feel as if the entire outing was a failure. I seem to have forgotten that: Nature doesn't care what bird I want to see I can still enjoy all the...

Read New Beginnings now!So I’m of two minds for how this story resolves… on the one hand there’s the “this home, this timeline is where the heart is” on the other, our protagonist feeling incomplete almost feels like a subconscious regret of jumping. Where do you stand on this?For me, this ending became a parallel...

I’ve always had a dream of having a proper workbench — a place where all the tools are in a handy drawer right next to me, and the bench being totally solid and not wobbly at all, and not having to be careful about the surfaces, and being able to just have a place to let half-finished projects just sit there and not...

Let us start October off on the right foot with an exciting new edition of the Pook-Emu Bee Links. Oh no, whatever will I do? 1 | Reddit is killing RSS feeds and ending public API access because of AI bots (Sarah Perez for TechCrunch. Sep. 30, 2026.) One may think that your favorite (I hope) feed proponent would be...

I realise I've been a bit quiet on the blog front for a few days, in part because I've also been a bit quiet on the coding front too. Looking at my GitHub contribution graph, the previous three days where I didn't commit anything are the longest run of no-commit days I've had in about 10 months. There are a couple...

How do people even think about this? I had a blast blowing up Wikipedia while waiting for my breakfast order this morning.

Mi hermano subió su primer paper a arXiv y nos avisa en el chat. Pero no solamente nos avisa si no que también nos dice que vayamos a leerlo. El título del paper : "Local Automorphism-Aware Syndrome Compilation for General Quantum LDPC Codes" ... Estem... Okay amigo... claro... lo leeré con muchísima atención......
