Fun weekend tutoring Northumbrian Smallpipes at Halsway Manor. Although I confess that I didn't necessarily nail all the triplets in "Madame Bonaparte" - the traditional end to the tutors' concert... (I blame Andy)

Just found this trio of old photos of me with my first full set of Highland pipes. I hadn't quite grown into them!
Three photos of a me aged about 10 wearing a kilt and playing a set of Highland pipes that look *way* too big for me.

There are some similarities of course - bellows-blown, and closed fingering - as well as (hopefully) an evocative sound. There are common ancestor pipes in I think about 1800 or so.

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.

#MATLAB R2025b has dropped - a quick intro to the new desktop. R2025b delivers quality and stability improvements, building on the new features introduced in R2025a. Thank you for all the feedback you provided to make R2025b possible. If you are using R2025a, you should switch to R2025b.

Job alert! I know a lot of #HPC people follow me here so if any of you are looking for a new gig, maybe this one at MathWorks is for you. lnkd.in/efa8iPkZ You don't even need to know any MATLAB...we can teach you that. Your HPC/parallel chops are what we are looking for.

Petrol stations should not be allowed to display any branding. Instead, like tobacco, they should be plastered in massive grim pictorial health warnings, and only show their company name in a small nondescript font underneath.

🚴‍♀️ London has done it. We’ve just been crowned Europe’s favourite city for cycling, a fantastic recognition of the progress we’ve made to make our city greener and more accessible for all. Our cycling boom is good for Londoners and is putting us on the map for cycle tourism.
