Took kahlűa to cool off in the waterfalls. Found a horse

It's raining. Kahlűa was never allowed to lie outside in the rain at the beach. Something tells me she loves her new home

I ran an experiment on YouTube. I deleted my entire history, subscriptions and liked videos then just started watching shorts to see how long it took. I got my first AI slop video served after approx 3h of watch time.

A few years ago I wrote 3 (very) short stories that were kinda loosely linked together. In two of them I killed characters. At the weekend I read something real but relevant so went back to those stories. I've now written 6 stories and 4 are dead. All very deliberate accidents. Oops.

A couple of days ago I wrote an essay response to Uwe Friedrichsens excellence blog series on his "Thoughts on AI and software development." This is that essay. No squirrels were harmed in its writing. choclab.net/2025/06/19/s...

I finally bit the bullet and decided it was high time I tried once again to maintain a blog. I can absolutely 100% pinky promise that this will not last more than 3 posts before I forget where I parked the domain - I'm simply not that organised but until then - you can find it here choclab.net

My first experience with voice recognition was this parrot called prody from creative labs that flew around the screen and "reacted" to voice. Years later came Siri, Google assist and even Bixby None of them could understand a full blown Lancashire accent WTF makes you think your AI can?

A fun little project I've been working on for the last few weeks bmx is a bubblemix driven Tmux session and Kubeconfig context manager written in go When dealing with lots of clusters every day it's easy to get lost where you are. I wrote this to help me maintain my sanity github.com/mproffitt/bmx

Something to do on Sunday. Sharing the GPU with a vCluster running inside a kind cluster. This turned out to be easier than I expected. gist.github.com/mproffitt/a8...

It's my better half @roshanathambyrajah.bsky.social last night in Spain before flying back to Manchester to face the ice and snow so I cooked Donald with cauliflower and potato cheese in plum, tangerine and white wine sauce. This is definitely one of my better creations.

Spent part of Christmas completely re-theming my shell so all colour-schemes move over to TokyoNight. Also writing a small helper plugin for tmux that offers a set of quick commands which overlay my session so I don't have to interrupt my workflow to quickly check something.

Up until 2am playing dice with the family, up at 7 walking off the hangover whilst the dog played ball in the sea. Now ready for turkey 2.0

We're coming up to the end of the year and if I look back at all the shit I've done this year, it's been absolutely insane.

Never done this BlueSky thing before but lets give it a try and kick things off with my most recent composition Echos of the Río Este, a short symphonic/tone poem inspired by my Easter break in Touguinhó, Portugal. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAuQ...
