I've been doing a tech podcast for 17+ years (without missing a single weekly episode) called the NosillaCast. It has a slight 😉 Apple bias. I'm a retired mechanical engineer and newly minted software developer. I am learning to code through another podcast I produce called Programming By Stealth with instructor and friend Bart Busschots. I like to follow science and math nerds, esp astronomy talk.

@ralf @bbhart @HollyGoDarkly The latest incarnation of dictation on the iPhone is shockingly good, and hasn’t Android been really good at it for a long time?
The Drobo Gives One Last Gift - Podfeet Podcasts

Drobo Sold on eBay for $660 If you’ve been following along, you might remember that I finally pulled the plug on our Drobo network attached storage (NAS). I replaced it with a second Synology because I worried about depending on such old technology. Drobo filed for bankruptcy earlier this year, and they haven’t had anything […]

I paid $100 for Affinity 2, a few weeks back, so I've been working on trying to get good at the thing. For today's test, I am cleaning up a photo that I took in Venice, this past spring.

@joe wonderful. Affinity products are amazing.

@HollyGoDarkly Never understood why people don’t get that adding alt text to images increases audience. Wrote a blog post recently showing how easy it is on a few different platforms in hopes people will learn to look for it when they post images. In case you want to send to anyone: https://www.podfeet.com/blog/2022/11/alt-text/

When I tweeted it, a bot wrote “You seem to be interested in accessibility - did you know that adding alt text to images will help those with screen readers understand your images?” 🤦‍♀️

Hilarious protip for dealing with request by email from unethical boss to do something unethical: forward it to security as a suspected phishing attempt.
@CosmicRami that is undeniably cool. Congratulations!

WOW! Am jumping up with joy!

Thanks to the keen eye of a follower in the other place, I captured a Type Ia supernova event and didn't even know it!

I've been sitting on my #astrophotography images for over a year and there it was, right under my nose.

Captured two images of NGC 1566 in Feb 2021, and Dec 2021 ... and #Supernova 2021aefx appeared between them!

Amazing that I can get this kind of data from the heart of the city of Sydney (light pollution) from a galaxy 69 million light years away. Can't believe I never noticed this either!

Here's a little bit of reading about this supernova: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2041-8213/ac7cef
