"The best way to predict your future is to put it on the calendar—and then earn the right to be there." - Futurist Jim Carroll

The Art of the Infinite Pivot has been paused until next Tuesday.

Looking at my app today, these aren't just tee times. They are a receipt.

I mean, you don't often get to see something like this on your phone!

Let the bucket begin!

I'm sending this out just as my flight is coming up over the Irish coast - we should be landing in Edinburgh within the hour. My son Tom and I will get at least 4, and perhaps 5 or 6 rounds in. But, we might have—as they say in Scotland—a wee bit o' weather! Hi Dave! LOL!

I never thought I'd see it come to fruition, but I was determined.I certainly won't let a little storm get in the way of a bucket list!

Look, I know I was going to stop posting about this, but not yet.

You might remember that back in March, I was in the thick of "Rotation Day"—the grueling first steps of twisting a spine that had been fractured in three places. I talked then about "engineering the outcome" and following a blueprint. I did the cardio. I did the heavy lifting. I did the work. I wrote about it in this post, with this image:

Today, the "blueprint" phase is officially over. The "Upcoming Reservations" are no longer abstract goals—they are the next 5 days of my life. If we are lucky, we'll get out for a round on arrival today, simply as a part of the process of staying awake!

I've learned a lot through this whole ordeal. Perhaps its that that we often spend too much time hoping for a "bucket list" moment and not enough time building the bridge to get there. If you are currently in your own version of "Rotation Day"—recovering from a setback, pivoting a business, or grinding through a tough project, keep your eyes on the calendar.

Because the future arrives for those who do the heavy lifting to meet it.
(I'm pretty certain I'll be sharing another golf photo in Monday's inspiration!)

Futurist Jim Carroll just hopes he doesn't shank off the first tee on the Old Course.

The City of Oshawa wants to be a leader in Canada’s defence sector. Here’s its pitch
As the federal government expands Canada’s defence sector, the City of Oshawa says it wants to be included. City councillor Tito-Dante Marimpietri has created a blueprint outlining what Oshawa can offer as a hub for manufacturing, testing and shipping.

So, I left the failed origami model in the sun for an hour or two, then opened it and washed it.

Not the best picture as it's still wet. I'll post more about it later.

Рефлексия в Unreal Engine или как движок знает о вашем коде всё

UHT сгенерировал 4294 строки кода из одного моего заголовочного файла. Имена свойств, смещения в памяти, флаги сериализации, exec thunks для каждой функции - всё, чтобы движок в runtime знал о классе то, что C++ забывает после компиляции. Это третья и последняя статья в серии про внутренности Unreal Engine: K2Node → Blueprint VM → рефлексия. Разбираем, что внутри этих четырёх тысяч строк, зачем каждая из них, и как ими пользуются Details panel, GC, репликация и сама Blueprint VM.

Рефлексия в Unreal Engine или как движок знает о вашем коде всё

Это завершающая часть трилогии о внутренностях Unreal Engine. В первой мы разбирали K2Node и жизненный цикл Blueprint-нод. Во второй копнули глубже - Blueprint VM, байткод и dispatch loop. В небольшом...
