I was in a slack, and found out someone at  is named TIM HORTON, and I CANNOT get over the hilarity that is. 🇨🇦s will understand me. ☕️ 🍩

This will be ViewGestureController's snapshot removal tracking thing not getting the signal that it's safe to remove the snapshot until it times out (for whatever reason, specific to the repro conditions).

I wouldn’t call it a bad thing, but I was caught off guard after clicking the link. 🙃

Thank the lord. The Red Devils were not playing! The planets have realigned, and Trvmp's meddling and endorsement was not effective. 🇧🇪 4 - 🇺🇸 1

This has been a WEEKEND. Was out this morning for physio again, back in to watch a track & field event to get inspired whilst doing light work. About to head back out shortly but this is what I've been longing for: sunshine, touching grass. Hope you gave Claude the day off.

Heading to rehab/physio feels like a privilege, but I’m super sad that on this gorgeous cloudless morning, I’m unable to go for a (long) run. I would have taken great pleasure in 22km+… alas…

In a world wide first, Snap has managed to fuse hockey sticks w/ eye wear using an electrochemical procedure they are calling 'cold fusion', and the product they are launching is called SPECS. Per advance prototypes, we're told the case will not smell like authentic hockey bags

🎂 the glorious GIF format turns 39yrs old TODAY. One of the most inefficient , but adored image formats was introduced June 15th 1987 by Steve Wilhite 🕊️. A famous patent dispute led the way to the creation of the PNG format. Known for animations, GIFs are *mostly* MP4 today for better efficiency

📚 A book, a bench and a beverage. I've been listening to A LOT of @lennysan.bsky.social Podcast and the latest one w/ Tony Fadell made me do this. Can't wait to go through BUILD, as his work was responsible for some of my purchases: owned both the Gen 1 iPod and iSight... Fun in the Toronto sun ☀️.
