Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Yesterday, I saw a Merc G550 with a Ferrari NY license plate surround and a vanity license plate with a Ferrari model number. Talk about mixed messages. 020

Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 11/06/2026I’ve seen a few Hyundai Insters running around Bodø, and they seem like a cool car. Of course we’ll never see it in the US. 020
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 11/06/2026I saw this happy little survivor in the Bodø area. I haven’t seen one in a long time. 000
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Not doing my bit to get pictures of survivor cars, but I did see a first gen Polo and a first gen Ka yesterday. I did see a new R5 in yellow. I liked it but we’ll never see it in the States. 000
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 08/06/2026We enjoyed our time in Oslo. We’re flying up the Bodø today for the rest of this week. I’d never been to Norway and am really liking it. 000
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 07/06/2026In Oslo today. 130mph max VY train from the airport to downtown. It was clean, comfortable, and had places for bikes, strollers, etc. I thought of @victoriascott.bsky.social first as she would love this. Why can’t we have nice things? 010
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 26/05/2026One more shot from SFMOMA last Friday. It is OOC, shot on an iPhone 17 Pro using the Leica Lux app. I'm working on getting my "eye" back after not shooting photos for a while. I'll be in Norway in a week or so and will be taking at least one of my cameras; I haven't decided which one yet. 030
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 26/05/2026I was at SFMOMA last Friday, and these are a few pictures I shot. I have more, but didn't want to run afoul of copyrighted works. All are OOC, shot on an iPhone 17 Pro using the Leica Lux app. 040
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 19/05/2026Flight boards at 0535. I got to the terminal at 0355. Sitting at the gate by 0406. I have Clear and Pre-check so I missed the fairly long regular line. The day I’m late to the airport will probably be the day I’m late to the gate. 😂 010
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 18/05/2026I just saw a facelift Tesla with the license plate 163MPH. Please don’t. 020
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 18/05/2026If I wanted to see a certain Star Wars movie this week in a theatre in San Francisco or Oakland, where should I go? I’m staying in the Embarcadero area. 010
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 01/04/2026I’m amused to be put on an “Attie haters” list. I spend my time with security research, mostly looking at ways to harden existing programs. While I’d agree there may be roles for tightly-focused LLMs, I believe general agentic systems like Attie are a dead end. One person’s opinion, anyway. 230

Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 15/10/2025I saw a very nice ‘67 VW Fastback today while waiting at a light. It seems so small now compared to the behemoths we now drive. There were even period correct 1967 NH license plates on it. 020
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 08/10/2025I will be away for a couple of days and have to decide which camera to take. I'll either take the Leica Q or the Olympus OM-D E-M5 II. The Oly has a little more flexibility if I bring my zoom lens, but the Leica color is so darn good. The Q is lighter has well. Decisions, decisions. 120
Pete Brady @jpeterbrady.bsky.social · 06/10/2025Yesterday I drove the Mach-E Rally down from central NH to the MA/RI line to have dinner with my siblings. The maps said I’d use 50% of the battery each way and would need to charge on the return. Nope, got home with 28% of the battery, about 3.4kWh/mi. I was very impressed. 000
