Gah, I feel like every time I make good feedback on my achilles injury, I move the wrong way and worsen it. Last week I couldn't even stand in a walking boot. This week, though, I'm a little better but not better enough!

A little snippet of guitar practice. I'm thinking of doing another 100 video run just to show where I land from here.

In true Mark fashion, I have been writing a short story since this post, I'm about 4500 pages written. It started as a script/screenplay and now I'm just writing it as a short story that may turn into a script again in the future. But the key point is just writing and writing and writing.

Back in July, @wolfmanfx.bsky.social and I (both @soverius-ai.bsky.social) joined the folks at CopilotKit to introduce the new open-source integration for @angular.dev. Great to see our work featured by @marktechson.com 🙏 on the @developers.google.com channel. 🎬 www.youtube.com/shorts/Ujmx5...

BE CAREFUL READING SOCIAL MEDIA because it'll have you feeling like you are sooooo behind when really, you aren't.

My friend released his latest game on Steam today! Roguelike pinball. What’s not to love?! To celebrate, I’m giving away five free copies. If you’re a mutual and interested in playing, either reply on the thread, or shoot me a DM

And I sorta, kinda, definitely fell into the hype cycle and purchased a FX5. My FX3 will finally leave the studio and be used more on the go for all sorts of filming action.

Mark where have you been?? Well, I deleted social media from my phone and have mostly been posting from the web browser. What have been doing?? Working feverishly and playing a lot of guitar lol

Another Capital P practice session. I'm coming out the other side of the mud, as it were, and I'm starting to feel motivated again. I can now shoot some videos again.

I tried practicing quietly this morning in the bedroom while the CF was asleep, but she said it woke her up. I'm going to have to go into the closet!

A dark metallic plum-colored electric guitar with a white pickguard and maple neck lies flat on a grey carpet. A pair of dark over-ear headphones and a small black Sonicake multi-effects unit are plugged into the guitar, creating a compact practice setup.

Time for some capital P practice! This means really digging deep on fretting hand hygiene. I keep meaning to make a video showing y'all my progress, but I keep forgetting

Just finished a laaaaaate practice session. My fretting hand will be beat into submission. Getting in reps only means that in a few weeks these difficult things will be much easier

Usually my right forearm/hand is feeling the burn after a long guitar practice. Today, my left hand is really feeling it and I'm sweating a bit. My left-handed lunacy campaign is working lol

One of the neighborhood kiddos knocked on my door at 8PM and asked if the heir could come out and play. 8 is bedtime. But because I'm trying to let him have fun experiences and a "90s" summer. I let him go out for 45 minutes and then he came back safely. I did this in the 80s, glad he could too.

In the room, ready for my upcoming keynote session - What's New in Angular 🚀 Also premiering these today 👀

A top-down, slightly angled close-up shot shows a person’s feet crossed at the ankles, showcasing a vibrant pair of multicolored sneakers.
The sneakers feature a bold rainbow gradient pattern shifting from deep blue at the toe tips to green, yellow, orange, and hot pink along the sides. They are constructed from a textured fabric canvas with frayed, jagged edges on the overlays around the toe box and lace stays. The toe box itself is a deep blue speckled with small white dots. The shoes are tied with flat black laces over a pale pink tongue with exposed yellow foam padding at the top edge. The outsoles are a solid, light pastel pink.
The person is wearing dark blue denim jeans, with one pant leg heavily bunched around the ankle, partially obscuring the top of the left shoe. The background consists of a dark gray, textured floor with light speckles,

I'm away at Google I/O and I know the heir misses me, I miss him and the co-founder a ton. He challenged me to a chess match on Duolingo and I let him cook me lol but honestly, I was just happy he wanted to connect with me like that (I also don't know how to play chess lol)

After making 200 videos over the last 6-8 months, I'm only going to post when there's something cool to show on guitar. I want to put as much time as I can into my latest pursuit: "Left hand lunacy" My right hand is fast as heck now. I want to beef up my left hand to unlock what's next for me.

Josh's Whimsical Animations course is INCREDIBLE. It contains all of the amazing tricks that he's curated over the years, for you to install onto your own brains. e.g., I went from having no knowledge of the Canvas API to being able to create snazzy animations like these fireworks from scratch.

Playing guitar so much and practicing every single day has really made me appreciate the feel for my different guitars. With that being said, I can't wait to get my Mx Strat back from the guitar shop with the new pickups and setup!! Maybe I'll learn RnB guitar next
