It’s done!!! 🖥️🍀💜🎶📚🖋️ #G4M4k is a #DIY project: M4 MacMini in a G4 case with 4K screen, working Blueray player / DVD burner and a diy amp for the original (and sadly proprietary) Apple Pro speakers. I LOVE just everything about it. Will have to write the #BookOfHacks now. ;) #DesperateHousehackers #Autorenleben #writerslife #indieauthor

My first impressions of Geoffrey Cain’s “Steve Jobs in Exile”

Very disappointing! Many names that shaped NeXT are missing, very vagan when explaining tech, almost no “why” questions.

My generation will soon start feeding the earthworms, and until now there is not a single book or archive documenting the unique tech evolution that started with the Mac and Brad Cox, went through NeXT, and ended with Apple and VisionPro…

“Steve Jobs in Exile”

I know the story of WebObjects very well, because Jean-Marie Hullot asked me to alpha-test It. I had a very early copy of the source code, and I even contributed to the scripting language (way better than JS). Very early version also made use of MiscKit (started by Don Yacman). For the initial version of the tables, they used MiscMatrix (that I did maintain at the time). The book tells completely different story.

🌍 Introducing Atlas - A travel-tracker app I've built solo over months.

It lets you stamp every country you've visited on an interactive world map, log trips with dates & photos, and learn about the culture of every nation the songs, recipes, books, films and landmarks that make each place unique.

Built by one person who genuinely believes everyone should fall in love with the world.

The flooding at the Greenford London subway station has been reduced by around 90% thanks to... *checks notes* ...a family of beavers.

After conservationists reintroduced a group of beavers into a nearby city park, the animals began building dams, and the wetlands they created now absorb and slow floodwater naturally.

City officials had been planning major flood infrastructure works, but the beavers effectively created them on their own — while also boosting biodiversity and restoring the ecosystem around them.

I think the money the city would have spent on anti-flooding infrastructure should go to the beavers, don't you? 🦫 🦫 🦫
